Two ways to work with us.
For owners: You own business data
Service businesses generate a lot of records. Some of it can be useful for training and testing AI tools, even after the business has closed or been sold.
Kinds of data that can have value
- Email archives
- Support and service tickets
- CRM records
- Estimates and quotes
- Dispatch and scheduling records
- Job photo archives
- Call recordings
- Workflow records
How it works
- 01
Intro call
We learn what you have, where it lives, and who owns it. No files change hands yet.
- 02
Rights check
We look at who owns the data, what consents exist, and what your contracts allow.
- 03
De-identify and package
Personal details are removed and the data is organized so a buyer can evaluate it.
- 04
Shop to vetted buyers
We approach buyers who fit the data. You see who they are before anything is shared.
- 05
License signed
You and the buyer sign a written license. It is usually non-exclusive.
- 06
Payout
You are paid under the terms of your license agreement.
What you keep
Ownership
The data stays yours. A license lets a buyer use it. It does not transfer ownership.
Control
Terms are set in writing. You decide what is in scope and what is not.
Approval of every buyer
No buyer sees anything until you have said yes to that buyer.
What we need to see before we start
- Who owns the data.
- Customer and employee consents that apply.
- Any contract restrictions, such as agreements with customers, vendors, or software providers.
- A plan so that no personal data is included without a legal basis.

For buyers: You need training data
For AI data vendors, RL environment builders, vertical AI startups, and teams that license data for training and evaluation. We source from real operating businesses, with the rights checked first.
Rights-cleared
We offer only data where the rights have been checked with the seller before it goes to market.
Provenance documented
You get a clear record of where the data came from and who owns it.
Samples under NDA
A sample is available under NDA, so your team can evaluate fit before any license is signed.
Vertical focus
Field service, home services, construction, restoration, and insurance workflows.
Tell us the vertical, data types, formats, and any rights requirements.
FAQ
Common questions.
What does it mean to license business data for AI training?
A license lets a company use your data for a stated purpose, such as training or testing AI systems. You keep ownership. The written agreement sets what is covered, for how long, and what the buyer may do.
What kinds of data fit best?
Operating records from service businesses, such as email, tickets, CRM records, estimates, dispatch records, job photos, and call recordings. Only rights-cleared, de-identified data is offered.
Do you ever hold my data?
No. Northend never holds the raw data. Delivery is arranged between you and the buyer under the license.
Is the license exclusive?
Usually not. Licenses are typically non-exclusive, so you keep the option to license to more than one buyer.
Does this work for a business that has closed or been sold?
It can. The question is whether you still hold the data and the rights to license it. We will check that first.
What is my data worth?
We do not state prices or promise payouts. Value depends on the data, the rights, and the buyer. We can talk through your situation on a call.
This website does not collect or store client datasets. Any data a client chooses to license is handled under a separate written agreement, never through this site.
