Three steps to licensing your records
It begins with the estimate, found at the top of the home page. After that come three steps, and none of them moves forward without your yes.
Where it starts
On the home page, the estimate covers three questions: team size, years in business and business type. Where a range begins comes from team size, then the number of years you have operated moves it higher or lower. The number stays the same whatever your business type.
When the form is in, License Your Data, the partner that handles licensing, has a specialist call you within minutes. That opening call is quick. The goal is to set up the 15-minute call when it is convenient for you. Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.
Step one is a 15-minute call
It is just a conversation. Because it is under NDA, you can speak freely about how your company operates. Expect questions about the tools your team uses, how far back their history goes, and anything you already know must stay out.
There is no request for a password, a data export or any system access. Should the fit not be there, the call is where it ends.
Step two: a de-identified copy
When you decide to keep going, the team at License Your Data builds a copy of what you selected. Your original files stay in your systems. In the copy, names and identifiers are replaced with placeholders, and anything you exclude is simply absent: a system, a folder, a client or a matter.
Part of the copy then comes to you for review. You approve it, ask for changes, or stop. Nothing goes out until you say yes.
Third step: buyers license it
AI labs license the approved copy through License Your Data and use it to train and test their models. Only the version you signed off on is licensed. Your records, systems and day to day work stay just as they were.
There is no cost to you at any step. There is no obligation when you ask for an estimate.
Shared versus never shared
The line is set before any work starts, and you are the only one who can move it.
Shared, once you approve
- The prepared version of your selected records
- Your picked systems, folders and years, nothing else
- Placeholders instead of names and identifiers
- Exactly what was in the sample you approved
Never shared
- Your original files, which never leave your systems
- Passwords, logins or system access
- Systems, folders, clients or matters you excluded
- Client and patient data held by law, accounting and healthcare firms
Worth thinking about first
- Where your chat, email, documents and customer records live
- The number of years each one covers
- Clients, matters or departments that should stay out
- Who on your team should check it before you approve
