REAL BUSINESS RECORDS.
REAL-WORLD KNOWLEDGE.

Project files. Research. Code. Original content.
The work behind your business may have value beyond its original use.

01 / THE OPPORTUNITY

Useful data comes
from real work.

AI developers seek examples of how people solve problems and businesses operate. We look for established archives with depth, context, and clear licensing rights.

These are examples, not a guarantee of eligibility. Ownership, permissions, quality, and volume determine fit.

02 / A CONSIDERED APPROACH

A simple first step.
A clear path forward.

You don’t need to prepare a dataset to start. We begin with a few details about your business and the records you retain.

01

Explore the fit

Tell us about your business and the types of digital records you have. No files or confidential details needed.

02

Make the connection

If there’s a potential match, we can introduce you to Mercor’s data partnerships team, with your permission.

03

Evaluate an offer

Mercor assesses eligibility and discusses scope, compensation, permissions, and delivery directly with you.

You decide whether to proceed. An initial inquiry does not authorize a data transfer or commit you to a license.

03 / A PERSONAL APPROACH

An economist’s eye
for untapped value.

I’m Amir Fekrazad, Ph.D., an economist and Associate Professor of Economics at Texas A&M University–San Antonio.

My work spans empirical research, data analysis, and AI applications. I started Data Asset Advisors to help business owners explore a practical question: could the knowledge captured in their everyday work have value to AI developers?

You’ll speak directly with me about potential fit and next steps.

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Good questions.
Straight answers.

What does “licensing data” mean?

It means granting defined permission to use specified records or content under a contract. The agreement determines permitted uses, duration, exclusivity, compensation, and other terms. We do not assume those terms on your behalf.

Who is a good fit?

Businesses with substantial archives of original digital work and the right to license them. Complete records with history, context, and outcomes are often more useful than isolated files. The interest form is a starting point, not an eligibility decision.

What about client confidentiality and personal information?

Ownership, contracts, confidentiality, and consent must be assessed before any transfer. Removing names does not automatically create licensing rights. The licensing partner must establish appropriate permissions and data protections with you.

How much could my business earn?

There is no standard or guaranteed amount. Compensation depends on the type, volume, quality, rights, and usefulness of the records, and the terms of a specific offer. The licensing partner provides any quote directly.

Do I need to upload anything or pay to inquire?

No. The initial inquiry is free and asks only for contact details and a few high-level answers. Please do not send datasets, patient information, client documents, passwords, or confidential files through this website.
