What the work is for

AI teams need data they can prove they have the right to use. YPAI licenses datasets that already exist, its own and its partners', and collects only what is missing.

The work

  • List the datasets you could license, and what each one contains.
  • Share a sample when asked, and answer questions about how the data was made.
  • Agree format and delivery with us, and supply the data that way.

What to expect

  • YPAI reviews the sample technically and verifies the rights before any licence is arranged.
  • A prospective buyer sees samples only under a non-disclosure agreement. It gives no right to train on them, and YPAI can require the buyer to delete them.
  • Licences can be exclusive or non-exclusive, and limited to a use case, a territory or a period.

You need

  • The right to license the data, or a clear way to obtain that right.
  • Documentation of where the data came from.
  • 18 years or older.

Good to know

  • YPAI licenses a dataset when a buyer's need matches it. Being in the inventory does not mean it will be licensed.
  • Data that cannot be traced to its consent and licence basis cannot be licensed, however good it is.

Our team reviews applications for this role and contacts selected applicants by email. Applying does not guarantee project work.
