- We source private training data that is not on the open web or in marketplaces, from companies that created it.
- Every holder is vetted for authority, ownership, consent basis and de-identification before you see a sample.
- You sign the license directly with the data holder, so your rights never depend on us.
- Documented provenance supports training data disclosure duties such as California AB 2013.
What we source
Data the web doesn't have: support conversations and their outcomes, call recordings, workplace email and chat, code with its history, recordings of skilled hand work, expert judgments, evaluation sets and specialist documents. Browse the data catalog for all 24 types.
How sourcing works
- Request. You describe the data in a request: modality, domain, volume, labels, rights and budget. No model details needed.
- Search. We approach holders who match, describing your need without naming you unless you agree.
- Vetting. We check each holder's authority, ownership, consent basis, contracts and de-identification plan. See how we vet.
- Sample. The holder shares a random, de-identified sample with you under NDA, directly.
- License. You agree terms and sign directly with the holder. We help both sides focus on the clauses that matter.
- Delivery. The holder transfers a prepared export to you. We never hold the data.
Why license instead of scrape
- Permission. A license is clear authority to train, with no fair use argument needed.
- Provenance. You know who created the data and on what terms, which disclosure rules now require.
- New information. Private data teaches your model things the public web cannot.
- Fewer surprises. Exclusions and de-identification are agreed before you receive anything.

Questions
Do you have datasets ready to buy?
We don't hold inventory. We source from holders who match your request, which is how we find data you can't buy off a shelf.
How fast can we see a sample?
For common types with willing holders, within weeks. New collection or heavy rights work takes longer. We give you a realistic timeline after the consultation.
Can we get exclusivity?
Often, at a price. Evaluation data is usually licensed exclusively.
What do you charge buyers?
The first consultation is free. Any fee for sourcing work is agreed in writing before work starts. See fees.
