For data owners

Earn from your data. Risk nothing you can't see.

Years of calls, records and documents are sitting in your systems. AI labs will pay to license them. We make them safe to license, find the right buyers and negotiate terms that protect you, so you get paid without putting your customers or reputation at risk.

What AI labs want

Data you already have is worth licensing.

Public internet data has been used up. Labs now pay for real-world, domain-specific data that only organizations like yours hold.

01

Calls & conversations

Recorded calls, chats and transcripts from customer service, intake, scheduling and support.

02

Domain documents

Clinical notes, legal filings, contracts, inspection reports, manuals and technical documentation.

03

Structured records

Transactions, claims, scheduling histories, work orders and other operational data.

04

Images & scans

Imaging, photos, scanned forms and diagrams, with faces and identifying marks removed.

05

Code & workflows

Internal software, scripts, configurations and process documentation that shows how real work gets done.

06

Expert judgments

Decisions, reviews and annotations made by your professionals, which are especially valuable for training and evaluation.

The process

Five steps. You approve each one.

Nothing moves until you sign off. One Lapi team is accountable from the first conversation to the final payment.

01

Assess

We review what you hold, confirm you have the right to license it, and identify which AI buyers want it. You get a written value estimate before committing to anything.

02

De-identify on site

Our team works at your location. We remove personal information before anything is copied off your systems, then test that what remains can't reasonably be linked back to a person.

  • Direct identifiers: names, addresses, phone numbers, email, ID and account numbers
  • Indirect identifiers: dates, locations, rare attributes that could single someone out
  • Free text: names and details mentioned inside notes and transcripts
  • Audio and images: voices, faces and identifying marks
  • Healthcare data: HIPAA Safe Harbor or Expert Determination
03

Package

Clean, consistent, well-documented data sells for more. We structure it into standard formats, add labels where valuable, and write a datasheet covering origin, contents, collection period and known limitations.

04

License

We approach qualified AI labs, share samples under NDA, and negotiate the license. You choose who may license your data and approve the final terms.

05

Get paid

Payment is secured before data is delivered. We track renewals, usage reporting and royalties so you don't have to.

Your terms

Every license protects you first.

Our standard terms are written for the data owner. You can make them stricter, never weaker.

  • No attempt to re-identify any individual, ever
  • No resale, sublicensing or redistribution
  • Use limited to the purposes you approve, such as model training or evaluation
  • Defined term, with renewal at your option
  • Exclusive or non-exclusive, at a price that reflects it
  • Audit rights and usage reporting
  • Deletion or certified destruction at the end of the term
  • Your organization is never named without your permission
Getting paid

Structured for a real payday.

We price your data against what comparable data commands and structure the deal around what matters to you: cash now, recurring income, or both.

Model A

Upfront license fee

A fixed payment per dataset. Simple and immediate.

Model B

Revenue share

Recurring royalties as licenses renew or new licensees sign.

Model C

Hybrid

A guaranteed upfront floor plus ongoing upside.

Model D

Exclusive premium

A higher fee for one licensee's exclusive rights, for a set time.

Questions

Before you decide.

Am I allowed to license this data?

It depends on how it was collected and what your contracts and privacy notices say. Checking this is part of the assessment. Where rights are unclear, we tell you, and we don't proceed until they're resolved.

Will my customers or patients be exposed?

No personal information leaves your site. We remove it on premises and test the result for re-identification risk, and every license forbids attempts to re-identify anyone.

Will anyone know the data came from us?

Only if you choose. By default, licensees see a description of the data's domain and characteristics, not your name.

How long does it take?

An assessment typically takes days. De-identification and packaging depend on volume and data type; we give you a timeline with the assessment.

What does it cost me?

The assessment is free. Our fees are agreed upfront and are typically tied to the licenses we secure for you, so we're paid when you are.

Do you sign a Business Associate Agreement?

Yes, for any healthcare engagement where our team handles protected health information on site during de-identification.

Free, no obligation
