Training license vs evaluation license
Quick answer
A training license lets an AI company use data to teach a model new behavior, while an evaluation license is narrower, typically allowing data to be used only to test or benchmark a model's performance. The two usually come with different scope, pricing and terms.
Training licenses#
A training license usually covers broader use of the data to shape how a model behaves, which can mean a higher price given the depth of use.
Evaluation licenses#
An evaluation license is more limited in scope, often used to measure model accuracy or safety rather than to teach new behavior.
Businesses should check which use case a buyer actually needs, since the approved use directly affects both pricing and risk.
