- CEOsYour company's past work can become a new revenue line without new hires or new products.
- CFOsLicensing income is paid on agreed terms set before any data moves.
- CISOsData is reviewed and stripped of personal details before anything leaves your control, and large sets stay in your own storage until handover.
- CTOsMost of the work is exporting from systems you already run. We send an export guide once you qualify.
- Data protection officersPersonal details are removed and the company approves every release. Applicable laws are assessed deal by deal with counsel.
- Founders winding down a companyA closing company's records can still have value, if rights are clear and the data is handled properly.
- General counselEvery deal is reviewed against your contracts, notices and the laws that apply. Nothing is released without company approval.
- PE operating partnersEach portfolio company is assessed on its own. There is no combined payout promise across a portfolio.
- Bankruptcy trusteesA debtor's work records may be an asset. Licensing a prepared copy can return value to the estate, subject to court approval and the debtor's privacy promises.
- Board membersLicensing can add revenue from records the company already has. The board's role is to confirm rights, safeguards and approvals are in place.
- BPO ownersYour QA frameworks, playbooks and client-approved interaction records can have value to AI companies building support agents.
- COOsMost of the work is a few exports and a review. SourceX and approved partners handle preparation so operations keep running.
- Corporate development leadersData licensing can be evaluated like any other asset deal: rights, value, terms and impact on future transactions.
- CPA firm partnersFirm-owned materials such as workpaper templates and anonymized process records can be licensable. Client records need strict care.
- Data leadersYou likely know where the richest records live. SourceX handles rights review, preparation and buyer terms; your role is mapping and approval.

- Fractional CFOsFor clients with years of records, data licensing can be a new revenue line worth evaluating.
- Franchise ownersYour franchise agreement decides who owns which records. Start there before anything else.
- Heads of engineeringIssue histories, code reviews and incident records can be valuable. Exports are usually standard; secrets and third-party code are removed.
- Heads of supportYour ticket and chat history shows how real problems get solved, which is exactly what AI support agents learn from.
- Holding companiesSubsidiaries can be assessed together while each signs for its own records.
- InvestorsPortfolio companies may hold records with value to AI companies. Each is assessed individually; there is no combined payout promise.
- IT directorsYour job is mainly exports and access control. SourceX never needs system access, and large datasets can stay in your storage.
- Law firm partnersFirm-owned know-how such as templates and anonymized process records may be licensable. Privilege and client confidentiality come first.
- M&A advisorsData licensing can add value before, during or instead of a sale. Terms should protect future transactions.
- MSP ownersYour runbooks and ticket histories can have value, but client contracts decide what client data is usable.
- PE portfolio companiesEach portfolio company is assessed on its own merits and signs for its own records.
- RevOps leadersCRM histories, call notes and pipeline changes show how deals actually move, which AI sales tools value.
