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.
A broker publishes a band for an Ohio cleaning company, a reminder that service businesses with scheduling and job history qualify, not only professional firms.

What Ohio law says
No comprehensive state privacy law. Ohio has no comprehensive consumer privacy law as of October 2026. Breach notice rules apply.
What that means in practice: the agreement does the work. Which categories are out, how identifying fields are removed, and what the buyer can do downstream. Customer and employee personal data stays out of every deal we see, whatever the state. 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 Ohio 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 Ohio companies. Published ranges run $100K to several million for 30+ people with years of records.
- Briggs Analytics estimate for a 50-person Ohio company with ten years of records: $190,000 to $560,000, by industry.
- Ohio law leaves internal operating records to the contract. Your lawyer reads it.
Questions owners ask.
Can a Ohio company sell its data to AI companies?
Yes. Every buyer we track licenses de-identified operating records from U.S. companies, Ohio included. Customer and employee personal data stays out, and the agreement sets what the buyer can do.
How much do Ohio 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 Ohio company with ten years of records runs $190,000 to $560,000 across the industries above.
Does Ohio privacy law stop a data license?
Ohio has no law that addresses a license of de-identified internal business records directly. The contract does the work. Ask your lawyer.
