The buyers are AI data companies and the brokers that feed them. Every one we track licenses from companies anywhere in the United States, and most want a team based here. None of them need you to be in a particular city. What they need is years of records your company owns: email, chat, tickets, jobs, invoices, drawings, the back-and-forth around every decision. Every buyer, compared.
Maryland law firms are a named target of at least one broker, and the buyer that takes professional firms smallest starts at six people for law.

Bands are what an intermediary publishes, not an offer. Every buyer and broker, compared.
What Maryland law says
Maryland Online Data Privacy Act (MODPA), effective October 1, 2025. Maryland's law is among the strictest state laws on consumer data minimization, and it exempts employee records and business-contact data. A broker publishes a band for a Maryland law firm.
What that means in practice: a license of de-identified internal operating records usually sits outside the consumer privacy law, and the work is in the contract: which categories are out, how identifying fields are removed, and what the buyer can do downstream. Ask your lawyer. What to ask for in the agreement.
Briggs Analytics is not a law firm and never tells you whether you have the right to license your records. The buyer's agreement and your lawyer do.
What to do first
- Get the estimate. It takes about a minute, asks for no files, and shows which buyers fit a Maryland company of your size and age.
- Fill in the data inventory: every system, the years you can export, how much is there.
- Decide what is out before anyone asks: customer and employee personal data, client-owned files, anything restricted.
- Get more than one number before you sign anything. An exclusive license can only be sold once.
In short
- Every buyer we track pays Maryland companies. Published ranges run $100K to several million for 30+ people with years of records.
- Briggs Analytics estimate for a 50-person Maryland company with ten years of records: $170,000 to $580,000, by industry.
- Maryland law leaves internal operating records to the contract. Your lawyer reads it.
Questions owners ask.
Can a Maryland company sell its data to AI companies?
Yes. Every buyer we track licenses de-identified operating records from U.S. companies, Maryland included. Customer and employee personal data stays out, and the agreement sets what the buyer can do.
How much do Maryland companies get paid for their data?
Published buyer ranges run from $100,000 to several million for a company with 30 or more people and a few years of records. The Briggs Analytics estimate for a 50-person Maryland company with ten years of records runs $170,000 to $580,000 across the industries above.
Does Maryland privacy law stop a data license?
Maryland has no law that addresses a license of de-identified internal business records directly. The contract does the work. Ask your lawyer.
