The records your team writes every day

If your tools are not listed here, they can still count. What matters is that the records sit in business software your company runs.

Records come in many shapes, and most of them can be considered:

• Email and chat message threads
• Documents, spreadsheets and presentations
• Technical specs and CAD drawings
• Comment histories on tickets and tasks
• Your codebase and its reviews

Ask on the call about any format you do not see here.

Plenty of companies have switched tools over time. A former mail server, an old project tool or a folder archive can still contain years of valuable history. Raise them during the call. They are considered next to the systems in use today, and leaving them out is equally easy.

The records that matter most show work being done, not just its result. An exchange where a client problem is worked out. A proposal and the revisions that shaped it. A ticket followed from first report to resolution. They capture the reasoning behind daily decisions, the very thing public text lacks.

Years of history help too. Watching one kind of task done many times, by many people, is what makes a set of records worth licensing.

Your originals never move. Your chosen records are copied by License Your Data, names and identifiers are swapped for placeholders, and you sign off on a sample before anything leaves.

Exclusions may cover systems, folders, teams or periods of time. Sensitive data can be excluded or de-identified before anything is shared. Law, accounting and healthcare firms set scope together with their own counsel, and client and patient data stays out.

Your records stay yours, and sharing happens only with your approval.
