  8. Independent broker (this site)

    Sell My Data To AI

    Best for companies that want every buyer verified and the success fee agreed in writing before any introduction

    Sell My Data To AI is an independent broker that helps companies license their data to vetted AI buyers, and helps AI teams source rights-cleared training data from vetted sellers.

    Fee to seller
    Sellers pay nothing to be assessed. We charge a success fee only when a deal completes, and the fee is agreed in writing before we introduce you to any buyer.
    Buyer vetting
    Every buyer is verified before they see a sample: company identity, intended use, security and retention commitments, onward transfer limits and, for larger deals, ability to pay.
    Data custody
    We do not take custody of your raw data. Buyers see redacted samples under a mutual NDA, and full data moves only after you sign a license directly with the buyer.
    Your control
    You approve every buyer, every sample and every license term. You can withdraw at any point before signing.
