License AI training data? Start with your company records

The short answer

To license AI training data as a company, start with the records you already keep: email, chat, tickets, CRM history and documents. micro1 and Handshake AI run company-data programs with stated payment ranges, and Troveo licenses records as a marketplace. Check your rights to the records before any call.

Search this phrase and you get pages about photo licensing, gig work and phone apps. For a business, the training data is the records it already keeps.

Which company records count as AI training data?

Email, chat, tickets, CRM history, documents and code from a working business.

micro1's data partnerships page lists tiers of $100K+, $500K+ and $1M+ for companies with 30 or more employees, and Troveo's business page runs a four-step process that starts with a directional valuation range and needs no access to your systems.

Both are self-reported. My guide to where to license company data compares four routes, and the buyer directory lists each buyer with its published terms.

Which firms take company records?

Handshake AI and Mercor run company-data programs alongside micro1. The Handshake AI evidence page and Mercor evidence page show what is checkable on each.

Expert-labor platforms such as Outlier sell contractors' work to labs. As far as I found, none of them takes a company's archive.

How do I know if my records are worth licensing?

Ask what you can hand over and whether you have the right to. A business with years of records and a legal right to license them has something to offer.

Run the rights check before any call, and read how to license business data to AI next. Talk to a privacy or commercial lawyer in your state before you sign.
