AI Data Broker Chain-of-Title, Indemnity & Saturation Methodology
How our clearinghouse desk separates genuine rights-cleared brokers from grey-market resellers.
Primary Consent & Explicit AI Training Grant Inspection
Legacy stock or call-center terms written in 2018 rarely cover foundation model weight training. We verify whether brokers hold affirmative AI-specific opt-in releases or statutory HIPAA Expert Determination certificates.
Contractual Indemnity Caps & Algorithmic Disgorgement Waivers
Following FTC algorithmic disgorgement precedents, enterprise GCs require explicit contractual waivers ensuring single-file disputes are settled via cash and takedown from future runs—never trained-weight destruction.
Multi-Buyer Exclusivity Decay & Commission Transparency
We classify every catalog across four saturation tiers (Unsaturated, Semi-Exclusive <5 Labs, Multi-Buyer 5–20, Widely Licensed >20) and benchmark broker commission splits (typically 20%–35%).
