The step before the steps
Our on-site estimate
Everything begins with three questions: how many people work at your company, how long it has been running, and what kind of business it is. Team size gives the starting band, and your years of operating shift it. Business type does not change the number.
Once you send the form, someone from our licensing partner phones within minutes to book a 15-minute conversation when it suits you. Indicative estimate based on your answers. Not an offer or guarantee.
Step 1
One 15-minute conversation
The first real step is a short conversation. 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. Talking is all it takes. If it is not a fit, you stop there.
Step 2
License Your Data makes a de-identified copy
When you want to move forward, License Your Data creates a copy containing just the records you chose to include. None of your original files ever leave your systems. Names and identifiers in the copy are replaced with placeholders, and anything you exclude, whether a system, a folder, a client or a matter, is left out completely.
A sample of what was prepared comes to you for review before anything leaves. If a part of it does not look right, it is corrected or excluded. No sharing happens until you say yes.
Step 3
Buyers license the approved copy
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. You keep your records, your systems and the way your team works today.
You pay nothing at any stage, and an estimate request carries no obligation.
The line
What goes out and what stays put
Before anything starts, the boundary is drawn, and it stays put unless you approve a change.
What is shared
- The in-scope records, as a de-identified copy
- Only the systems, folders and date ranges you picked
- Placeholders already in place of names and identifiers
- No more than the sample you approved
What is never shared
- Original records, which never move out of your systems
- No passwords and no logins
- Clients, matters, systems or folders you have excluded
- Patient and client data at healthcare, legal and accounting practices
Getting ready
What to have in mind before the call
You do not need to prepare documents. It helps to think through a few things so the 15 minutes are useful:
- The tools where your team's email, files, chat and client records live
- Roughly how many years of history each one holds
- Any clients, matters or departments to keep out
- Other people at your company needed to approve a sample
Begin with your range.
