Best ways to sell logistics and freight data to AI companies
By Gareth HoyleLast updated How we research
In short
The best ways to sell logistics and freight data to AI companies are a vetted broker such as Sell My Data To AI, or a license with micro1, Mercor, Handshake AI or Endless Data. micro1 names logistics workflows in its published brief, though no buyer publishes a logistics price. Dispatch decisions and exception records sell, while driver location data should stay out.
Key takeaways
- micro1 is best for established operators with 30 or more staff.
- Mercor is best for logistics and supply chain firms on cloud tools.
- Handshake AI is best for operators with documented processes and SOPs.
- Sell My Data To AI wrote this list and ranks itself first. The method section explains the criteria.
- Every entry's facts come from the company's own published terms, checked November 2026.
Logistics and freight companies hold decision records that AI agents learn from: dispatch and load planning decisions, exception records for delays and damage, customer service threads with shippers and depot procedures. Our logistics data page lists the records buyers ask for.
micro1's data partnerships page names logistics workflows among the operational records it licenses, Mercor targets logistics and supply chain companies, and Handshake AI lists logistics among its industries. None publishes a logistics-specific price, so compare their general ranges with a data valuation.
Hold back driver data. UK GDPR Article 4 names location data as an identifier, tachograph records exist for drivers' hours enforcement, and dashcam footage shows drivers, the public and number plates. Shipper contracts may also make rates and consignee details confidential. Our data manifest guide shows how to record exclusions.

How we ranked this list
Sell My Data To AI wrote this list and ranks itself first. We are a broker with a commercial interest in the result, and some companies below offer a service similar to ours. Read the order with that in mind.
For logistics and freight companies we gave extra weight to buyers that name logistics or operations workflows in their published brief, and to terms that let you exclude driver and telematics data.
| Criterion | What we checked |
|---|---|
| Fit for the data type | Whether the company names this kind of record in its own published brief |
| Published terms | Whether payouts, size requirements and license terms appear on the company's own pages |
| Vetting | What checks the company says it runs on sellers, buyers or datasets before a sample changes hands |
| Exclusivity | Whether licenses are exclusive, non-exclusive or perpetual, and whether that is published |
| Fees | Whether the seller pays a fee or commission, and whether the rate is published |
| Payment timing | When sellers are paid, as stated by the company |
| Transparency | How much of the above you can confirm before a first call |
Every fact about another company comes from our profile of it in the data buyers directory, checked on that company's own pages in November 2026. Where a term is missing we write "Not published" rather than guess. After first place, the order reflects fit for a company selling or licensing its data, not a quality score, and we do not rate any company negatively.
We rank Sell My Data To AI first because this is our list and our service is built for this reader, not because we scored ourselves against the others. We are independent of the buyers we work with, and our terms are on our fees and how we vet pages so you can compare them line by line.
