Our Mission
Dataowners.ai exists to make enterprise dark data commercially usable without making data owners become data companies.
We believe the AI economy requires sell-side infrastructure that prioritizes:
Provenance
Consent
Trust
Repeatability
Why We Built This
AI data markets today are fragmented, opaque, and risky. Data owners lack the operational and legal capacity to monetize safely. Buyers face inconsistent quality and unacceptable diligence burden. Dataowners.ai was built to sit between these parties — absorbing complexity and enforcing standards.
What We Are (and Are Not)
- Sell-side infrastructure for dark data
- A preparation, validation, and representation layer
- An operational proxy for data owners
- A marketplace
- A broker executing transactions
- A data manufacturing company
- A scraping or annotation shop
Our Operating Principles
Data owners retain ownership and control
Buyers receive defensible, documented assets
Transactions are facilitated, not intermediated
Standards scale — bespoke deals do not
Long-Term Vision
As AI models commoditize, data quality and governance become the durable advantage. Dataowners.ai aims to become the default infrastructure layer through which dark data enters the AI economy.
