See if you qualify

20 or more people? 3 or more years of records? Yours may be worth money.

AI labs are paying real businesses for the records they already keep. We find the buyer, handle the paperwork and walk you through it. You take a share of whatever it earns.

About a minute. Nothing to look up.
No files, no logins, nothing leaves your systems.
If the answer is no, we say so here, not after a call.
We handle the labs, the contract and the payout.

Sizing up how much you produce

Your estimate is ready
Where should we send it?

We will show the number on the next screen either way. This is so we know who to talk to if you want to take it further.

Please add your name.
Please add your business name.
That does not look like a valid email.
We could not save that. You can still see your number, or email us at support@joinvellum.com.

We will not add you to a list or pass your details on.

What a license could be worth, on what you told us
Work records a year
Years of history in scope
Records worth licensing
Your share at 30 percent

Rough estimate only. Not an offer, not a valuation, and not a guarantee of a sale. It assumes typical record volumes for a business your size in your industry.

The usual bar

Most businesses do not qualify. Here is what the labs look for.

Not because the work is not good. Licensing is a volume business, and below a certain size the legal and preparation cost eats the whole deal.

01

20 or more people

Enough of a team that a few years of work adds up to something a buyer will look at rather than a sample.

02

3 or more years of records

The value is in the back catalogue. A business that started last year has not accumulated enough yet.

03

US based, outside healthcare and finance

Patient records and consumer lending carry rules we are not set up to handle responsibly, and buyers do not want that risk either.

How it works

From six answers to money in the business.

You have never done this before and we do not expect you to. We handle the labs, the contract and the payout.

01

Answer six questions

About a minute, nothing to look up, and no files or logins. You see whether you qualify on this page, not after a call.

02

A short call with us

Thirty minutes. We go through what you actually hold, what it is realistically worth, and what the agreement says. Bring nothing.

03

We find the buyer, you get paid

Nothing leaves your systems until a buyer deal is agreed and your staff have approved a sample. You keep 30 percent of what it earns.

Reasonable questions

The things owners ask before they start.

Am I selling my business, or my customer list?

Neither. You are licensing a de-identified copy of how your company works, for a fixed term. You keep the original records, you keep the business, and nothing about your operation changes.

Your customer list, their identities and your commercial terms are out of scope and never leave your systems.

Does anything leave my systems to answer these questions?

No. The six questions are ranges you answer from memory. Nothing connects to your software, nothing is uploaded, and no record moves at any point before a signed agreement.

What happens to my customers' personal information?

It is removed on your own hardware, before anything is transmitted, and your staff approve a sample of the output before the first record moves. We would rather carry the cost of doing that locally than hold personal data at all.

Removing names is only the first step, and anyone who tells you it is the whole job is wrong. Context identifies people too, which is why addresses, pricing and anything tied to a specific account are excluded as well.

Who is actually buying this?

AI labs building models that have to handle real professional work, and the data vendors who supply them under existing contracts. Both are short on records of how expensive expert work actually gets done, because none of it is public.

You can decline any individual buyer. We name them before anything is transferred.

Am I training my own replacement?

Honestly, a bit, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. Models are going to get better at this kind of work whether or not your company takes part, and the training data will come from somewhere.

The choice is not whether it happens. It is whether you are paid when it does. If that trade does not sit right with you, do not do it, and we will not try to talk you round.

What if we do not qualify?

We tell you on this page, with the reason, rather than taking a call and going quiet. The bar comes down as buyer demand grows, so leave your details and we will come back to you if that changes.
