Get paid for the operational data your company already has.
Your tools hold years of tickets, threads, commits and documents. We license anonymised copies to frontier AI labs and their data partners. You keep ownership, and you are paid for each dataset we license.
Software companies in Europe, the UK, the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, East Asia, and elsewhere on request.
Who this is for
Software companies with a few years of history in the tools they run on: Slack or Teams, Jira or Linear, GitHub or GitLab, Notion or Confluence, plus a CRM and a finance system.
There is no headcount threshold. What matters is how much sits in those tools, how far back it goes, and how well it joins up across them.
Companies that are winding down are welcome. The records outlive the company, and whoever controls them can still license them.
If your whole history is a few dozen documents in a shared drive, there is not much to license yet.
How it works
Apply
Tell us which tools you run on and roughly how much sits in them. Skip anything you don't know.
We scope and value
We take a call under NDA to see what you hold, then send a written offer for each dataset. You sign a licence for the ones you accept.
You deliver, we pay
We agree the anonymisation method with you first. Where you require it, the anonymisation runs inside your own environment, so only the anonymised output ever leaves. We pay for each dataset on delivery.
What we commit to
- You keep ownership. A licence is permission to use a copy under agreed terms, not a sale of your data.
- Licences are non-exclusive unless you choose otherwise.
- Data is anonymised before any buyer sees it. We agree the method with you under NDA and run it inside your own environment where you require it.
- Nothing goes to a buyer until an NDA is signed, and the scoping call itself is under NDA.
Imladris Labs is a trading name of Rivendell Technologies Inc., the team behind HackerPulse. Rivendell is the controller for the information you submit; GDPR Local is our representative in the EU and UK.
Questions
Who buys the data?
Frontier AI labs and their data partners. We don't name buyers on this page, but the licence you sign names the counterparty you are contracting with.
Do we have to share everything?
No. You choose which tools are in scope and which date ranges, and you can hold anything back.
What about our customers' personal data?
Personal data is removed or replaced before any buyer sees the dataset, and you approve the method under NDA before anything runs. If a dataset cannot be anonymised to your satisfaction, it stays out.
Do we have the right to license this data?
You need to own or control the records you offer. Personal data belonging to your employees and customers comes out before any buyer sees the dataset. We go through where you stand on the scoping call, and your position goes into the agreement.
How is the price set?
It depends on volume, how much detail the records carry, how well they link across tools, how recent they are, and which languages they are in. Each dataset is priced separately in a written offer.
Our company is closing. Can we still apply?
Yes. What matters is that whoever controls the records can sign the licence: the remaining directors, an administrator, or a liquidator.
Does the data have to be in English?
No. We want non-English records too, and the form asks which languages your data is in.
Start with the form
Nothing you send in the form goes to a buyer. We use it to see whether there is a fit, and to get in touch.
