Data partnerships for small & mid-sized business

Your business already built the dataset.

We anonymize it. We license it. You get the check.

AI labs pay for real operational data — the messages, invoices, tickets, and jobs your company generates every day. Foundry IQ turns that history into a payout and an AI roadmap. You never write a line of code.

What we connect to

Every tool holds a different kind of value

Hover any card to see what buyers actually want from it. You choose which categories are in scope — anything you exclude is never touched.

Don't see a tool your team runs on? Mention it in your quote request — the list grows constantly.

Why your data, why now

Labs have run out of internet. They need how real businesses actually work.

Public web text is tapped out. What frontier models need next is authentic workflow data — and the 33 million small and mid-sized businesses in the US are almost entirely missing from today's training sets.

01 — SURFACE

Find the asset

Every quote, dispatch, invoice, and support thread is workflow data with market value. It already sits in tools you pay for. We find it and price it.

02 — CAST

Make it saleable

Raw exports are worthless to a lab. We strip out every identity, verify nothing can be traced back, and shape what remains into the format buyers actually purchase — that's the foundry.

03 — RETURN

Get paid twice

A licensing payout, plus a report on where AI can improve your own operations — the kind of roadmap consultancies charge five figures for.

Personalized quote

Every business is different. So is every quote.

Generic calculators get this wrong — data value depends on your industry, your tools, and what buyers want right now. Drop in your URL and we'll size yours properly, for free.

We'll size your data from what you shared and reply within two business days with a number and a link to book a call.

Inside the foundry

You run the business. The foundry runs overnight.

Once your tools are connected, everything happens on our side — extraction, masking, validation, packaging, payment. Here's one partner's pipeline while they slept.

The value exchange

From first call to payout in five steps

Our team runs the whole process end to end. If you can log in to your own tools, you can do this.

1
30 minutes

Scoping call

A conversation about how your business runs: which tools you use, how far back your records go, and which data you'd consider licensing. You leave with a preliminary number and zero commitment.

2
You choose the scope

Connect your tools

Standard sign-in flows — the same "Sign in with Google" screens you already know. Access is read-only and limited to the categories you approve. Anything you exclude is never touched.

3
Nothing to install

One-time copy

We copy the approved history once, on our infrastructure, on our schedule. Nothing for your team to babysit, and your live systems are never slowed or altered.

4
Verified untraceable

Identity removal

Before anything is packaged, every identifying detail — people, patients, vendors, the business itself — is stripped and replaced with placeholders that can't be reversed. Each dataset is audited to confirm nothing traces back.

5
The cast

Payment & your AI roadmap

When a vetted buyer licenses the dataset, you're paid. Alongside the check comes a report built from your own operations: the tasks AI could take off your plate this quarter, ranked by impact.

Security & control

Your data. Your customers. Your call.

Small businesses run on trust with their customers. Nothing leaves the foundry with a name, account number, or identity attached — and you hold the veto at every step.

Questions owners ask us

FAQ

Is my customers' information safe?
Protecting it is the whole design. Names, contact details, account numbers, health records — anything that points to a person or a business — is stripped and replaced with placeholders that can't be reversed, before any dataset goes anywhere. Buyers see workflow patterns, never identities, and every dataset is audited for trace-back before delivery.
How much does it actually pay?
It genuinely varies — by industry, tool coverage, years of history, and what buyers are shopping for at the moment. That's why we quote each business individually instead of showing you a calculator. Drop your URL above and you'll have a real number within two business days.
Who buys the data?
AI labs and vetted research organizations that train and evaluate models. Every buyer signs licensing terms restricting use to training and research — no advertising, no resale, no re-identification attempts.
Do I need engineers or IT staff?
No. If you can log in to your own tools, you can complete the process. Connections are standard sign-in screens, and everything after that runs on our side.
What's the AI roadmap I get back?
A report built from your own workflow patterns: where AI can save hours, which processes are automatable today, and what to do first. It's the analysis a strategy consultancy would charge five figures for — included with your payout.
