AI data sourcing & licensing

The data AI needs. From the businesses that hold it.

Haselpin helps AI companies source specialist business data, establish licensing pathways and access information that is difficult to obtain through conventional sources.

How It Works

One process from data requirement to licence.

From the initial brief to source qualification and commercial terms, Haselpin helps organise the work required to access specialist business data.

Haselpin's four-stage sourcing process, from data requirement to licence.

Read how each stage works

Real-world data. Across specialist industries.

Examples of potential sourcing areas and the kinds of records that may exist in them, not datasets Haselpin already holds or has licensed.

Data access begins with clear rights.

Useful data needs more than availability. Its source, permitted uses, restrictions and delivery requirements must be established before a commercial licence can proceed.

  • Source transparencyIdentify where the data comes from and who has the ownership or authority to license it.
  • Defined permitted useEstablish the intended training, fine-tuning, evaluation or other use before terms are agreed.
  • Documented restrictionsAddress privacy, confidentiality, intellectual property and contractual constraints explicitly.

No dataset is assumed to be compliant, anonymised or cleared for AI use. What's required depends on the source and the proposed use, and is assessed for each engagement. About data licensing

Different data.
Different requirements.

Each modality brings its own questions of format, quality, volume and rights. Sourcing is scoped against your requirement. Nothing here is a ready-made catalogue.

  • Operational workflows
  • Images and video
  • Expert-generated examples
  • Evaluation datasets

Whether you need specialist data for an AI model or hold records that could be valuable to AI developers, start with a short, high-level enquiry.

What happens next

  1. 01

    We review your enquiry

    We read your brief and consider whether there is a realistic sourcing or licensing route.

  2. 02

    We follow up to understand the detail

    We ask about scope, intended use, rights and timing before suggesting any route.

  3. 03

    Nothing moves without agreement

    No data is shared and no one is committed to anything until terms are agreed.
