The step before the steps
Our on-site estimate
It all starts with three short questions: your headcount, how many years your company has operated, and what type of business it is. The opening band comes from team size, and your years in business move it up or down. The type of business has no effect on the number.
Submitting the form brings a call within minutes from someone at License Your Data, who schedules the 15-minute conversation around your calendar. Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.
Step 1
A short 15-minute call
The first proper step is simply a short talk. An NDA covers everything from the outset, so you can talk openly about how your business runs. The specialist asks about your team's software, the rough span of your records, and anything you are sure should be left out.
At no point, now or later, will anyone ask for passwords or a way into your systems. All you do is talk. If it is not a fit, you stop there.
Step 2
Step two: License Your Data builds a de-identified copy
If you want to go ahead, License Your Data prepares a copy of the records you chose. The originals stay inside your systems. The copy uses placeholders instead of names and identifiers, and every exclusion you make, from a whole system down to one folder or client, is taken out in full.
A sample of what was prepared comes to you for review before anything leaves. Whatever looks off to you is either fixed or taken out. Nothing is shared until you approve.
Step 3
The copy is licensed by buyers
AI labs license your approved version via License Your Data and use it to build and evaluate models on true examples of work getting done. Nothing outside the version you approved falls under the license. Your records, systems and daily routines all stay yours.
Every step is free to you, and requesting an estimate puts you under no obligation.
The line
The shared part, and the part that never leaves
Limits are agreed up front, and they shift only if you say so.
What a buyer receives
- A copy of your in-scope records with identities removed
- Just the systems, folders and dates you chose
- Identifiers and names swapped out for placeholders first
- Nothing beyond the sample you approved
What is never shared
- Your originals, which stay inside your systems
- No passwords and no logins
- Whatever you exclude, from systems and folders to clients or matters
- Any patient or client data at firms in law, accounting or healthcare
Getting ready
Worth thinking over before you talk
You do not need to prepare documents. The 15 minutes go further if you have considered these points:
- The tools where your team's email, files, chat and client records live
- Approximately how far back each one goes
- Any clients, matters or departments to keep out
- Anyone else at the company who must approve a sample
