Custom built AI Dataset Licensing
AI training licenses require specialized frameworks distinct from traditional commercial data licenses, necessitating specific provisions for content retention post-training and defined usage cycles during the training process.
The complexity of AI data licensing extends across multiple dimensions. Data format considerations—whether text, image, audio, video, or geospatial information—each carry unique implications regarding privacy rights and creative content protection. Additionally, the methodologies behind data collection, creation, and aggregation significantly impact licensing requirements. Equally important are the processes for data handling, annotation, management, and security. These elements collectively form the critical metadata foundation that shapes both data contracting and subsequent commercial deployment of datasets for AI training purposes.
At AIDC, we've had the privilege of collaborating with leading organizations including ML Commons, the Open Data Institute (ODI), and Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering to research and develop standards for responsible AI contracting practices. Comprehensive research findings from these collaborative efforts are available at: https://oecd.ai/en/wonk/standard-contract-terms-responsible-ai-data-sharing.
Our contract generation framework has been developed through extensive industry experience and expert legal collaboration, considering facets for both open licensing models and commercial licenses designed for product development and corporate compliance.
The foundational purpose of our platform is to make dataset licensing and management for AI training both scalable and cost-effective. We achieve this by empowering data engineers to monetize ethically sourced datasets through our marketplace, while simultaneously enabling our publishing partners to efficiently process and distribute their data on our secure platform.
If you're interested in distributing your data through a secure, ethical and efficiently contracted framework, we invite you to connect with us.
