What Data Do AI Companies Buy? Check Your Own Stack, System by System
AI companies buy the working record of a business: team chat, email archives, CRM history, support tickets with resolutions, code with its reviews, shared drives, call recordings and finance exports — records that show a decision, the work and the outcome, connected.
MyCompanyDataWorth.com helps U.S. companies with 20+ employees license their operating records — email, chat, CRM and project data — to AI labs and training-data buyers. Owners keep ownership of their data; valuation starts with a metadata-only manifest, and no raw data is shared to get an estimate.
Communication: email, Slack and Teams
The decision layer. Years of threads show how work was scoped, priced, escalated and approved. Buyers name chat and email depth as the factor that lifts an entire archive's value.
What counts against it: archives that are mostly notifications and social chat. The inventory question is not “how much chat” but “how much work runs through it.”
Operations: CRM, support and project systems
The outcome layer. Closed deals, resolved tickets, delivered projects — records with known endings. A resolved ticket is a complete problem-and-fix pair; that completeness is what training data is made from.
Accounting history (QuickBooks) and SOPs/document libraries complete the picture: how the business bills, reconciles and standardises. Personal data inside any of these systems is de-identified or excluded — the work pattern is the asset, never the customer list.
What buyers do not buy here
Customer lists as such, raw client files the company does not own the rights to, photos, video, music or books, and anything with customer or employee personal details still in it.
If your stack matches the buying list on five or more systems with three or more years of history, the next step is the estimator — it prices exactly those inputs against the published ranges.
Estimate your range
The estimator maps your staff band, years of records, number of connected systems and industry onto the ranges buyers publish. It is part of the fit check above: pass the floor and your illustrative range appears with the factors that moved it, what would move you up a band, and the disclaimer below — before any booking is offered.
This is an illustrative estimate based on ranges buyers publish. It is not an offer, quote, or valuation of your company. Actual value — if any — is set by buyer bids on a metadata-only manifest of your records, after rights and de-identification checks. Many companies will not qualify or will receive offers below published ceilings. Nothing is owed by either side until a license is signed.
Start the fit check to see your rangeQuestions owners ask first
Is this a sale or a license?
A license. You keep ownership of your records and keep using them in your business. A buyer pays for the right to use a de-identified copy for AI training, on terms — length, exclusivity, permitted use — that you approve before anything is signed.
Do I have to send my data to get an estimate?
No. The estimate and the first call use only what you describe: systems, years and rough counts. Buyers bid on a metadata-only manifest. Full data moves only after you sign a license directly with a buyer, and personal data is de-identified before transfer.
What does it cost me?
$0 upfront. There is no retainer and no listing fee. We are paid a success fee only if a deal closes — the terms are stated in writing before any submission is made.
