## Your next step

Ask which compensation tier applies to your proposed scope and how completeness is accepted. Its headline, payment example and tier table show different starting figures; a written quote must resolve that difference.

## Program overview

micro1 is an AI data company that supplies training and [evaluation data](https://quotemydata.com/glossary#evaluation-data) to AI labs. Its data partnerships program licenses [operational data](https://quotemydata.com/glossary#operational-data) from ordinary companies: SOPs, communications, tickets, CRM, engineering, finance and legal records, and agent trajectories.

micro1’s tier table spans $100K to $2M+, while its headline starts at $200K and its payment section describes $150K to over $2M. These are program statements, not a verified average. Its payment clock starts at acceptance, with full payment stated within 30 days.

For operating companies it targets 30+ employees with English data in US and Western markets. Shut-down companies are accepted from more than ten countries through a separate track.

## What does the organization accept?

SOPs and internal docs; Communications and tickets; CRM, engineering, finance and legal records; Agent trajectories

## Who may be paid, and how?

**Company.** Within 30 days of data approval, per micro1.

**Published figure: $100K to $2M+.** This is an advertised figure, not a verified average or an offer for your records. [Read the program’s pricing explanation](https://www.micro1.ai/data-partnerships).

## Eligibility, geography and language

Operating companies with 30+ employees; English-language data, US and Western markets; Shut-down companies accepted from 10+ countries

Operating companies with 30+ employees; English-language data, US and Western markets; Shut-down companies accepted from 10+ countries

## Published process and terms

**De-identification:** micro1 says it will not resell or distribute records until personal and identifying information has been anonymized. Confirm preparation responsibilities and raw-data access before delivery.

**Deal structure:** License fee priced on volume, complexity, quality and uniqueness, not per employee.

**Exclusivity:** Not published. Ask during scoping.

## Questions to resolve before proceeding

- Payment follows approval of the delivered data. Get the approval criteria and window in writing.
- Ask to review the de-identification approach and a sample before transfer.
- Clarify whether the license restricts selling the same data to other buyers.

## Before requesting a company-data offer

Start with the official program page and a description of the records. Confirm the contract counterparty, permitted uses, exclusions, acceptance criteria and payment milestones before transferring data. Our [security questions](https://quotemydata.com/guides/security-questions-before-licensing-data) and [broker or direct guide](https://quotemydata.com/guides/broker-or-direct) can help with that review.
