Licensing explained, in three steps

Your first step is the estimate on our home page. Three steps follow, and none of them goes ahead unless you say yes.

The first step

Our home page estimate asks three things: how big your team is, how long you have been in business and what type of business you run. Team size sets where a range begins, and years in business moves it up or down. 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. The first call is short. Its purpose is to book a 15-minute call at a time that works for you. Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.

First step: a 15-minute call

It is just a conversation. It happens under NDA, so you can describe how your company runs without holding back. The specialist asks what software your team uses, how many years of records it holds, and what you know should be left out.

You will not be asked for a password, an export or access to any system. If it is not a fit, the process stops after the call.

Step two is 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.

Next, you look over a sample of the copy. Approve it, ask for edits, or end things there. Nothing is shared until you approve.

Step three: buyers license it

Through License Your Data, AI labs take the copy you approved and build and test models with it. Only the version you signed off on is licensed. Your records, systems and day to day work stay just as they were.

No step costs you anything. Requesting an estimate commits you to nothing.

Shared and never shared

The line is set before any work starts, and you are the only one who can move it.

Shared, after you approve

  • The prepared version of your selected records
  • Only those folders, systems and years you chose
  • Placeholders instead of names and identifiers
  • Exactly what the approved sample contained

Never shared

  • Your originals, which stay in your systems
  • Passwords, logins or any system access
  • Systems, folders, clients or matters you excluded
  • Client and patient records at practices in law, accounting and healthcare

Worth thinking about first

  • The tools that hold customer data, files, chat and email
  • How far back each one goes
  • Any clients, matters or teams to leave out
  • Who in your company should review the sample before approval
