What is FileYield?
FileYield is a brokered data marketplace for AI training data. Sellers describe a dataset to an AI listing assistant, submit it for review, and become discoverable to AI buyers through the marketplace and targeted outreach. Its taxonomy covers 2,566 data types across 36 categories.
How do FileYield deals work?
FileYield deals are negotiated directly between seller and buyer. You set the price and choose the model: one-time sale, recurring license, exclusive or non-exclusive, time-limited or perpetual, per-record or flat rate. FileYield keeps a record of offers and messages but does not process payments, host transfers or hold escrow.
Sellers handle data transfer, personal data and compliance directly with the buyer. FileYield's FAQ says deal cycles in enterprise data licensing range from a few weeks to a few months.
What does FileYield charge?
FileYield says listing is free, with no upfront fees, monthly minimums or charges for browsing or messaging. Its terms say it may earn fees for facilitating connections, disclosed at the time you list, request or accept a deal, and they prohibit negotiating off-platform to avoid those fees.
Who is FileYield a good fit for?
FileYield suits sellers who are ready to run their own diligence, contracts and delivery. If you need help with de-identification or a data manifest, arrange that before you list.
