For manufacturers and machine shops

Your old work orders, QA logs, and maintenance records are worth six figures to AI labs.

AI companies are licensing de-identified copies of manufacturing records: work orders, inspection reports, maintenance logs, and estimates. We take yours to the buyers who pay the most for it, then negotiate the price and terms. We handle everything from first call to wire, 100% free to you.

Why owners use Regulr

We bring the buyers. You pick the best deal.

Every buyer pays for something different. One wants work orders and job travelers, another wants inspection reports, NCRs, and the root-cause write-ups behind them, another wants the maintenance logs that show how your team keeps machines running. We know which buyers want records like yours, bring you their offers, and negotiate until the price and terms are right.

The right buyers for your data

We match your records to the buyers who pay the most for them, so your data lands where it's worth the most.

Offers side by side

You see every offer next to the others and pick the best one. One buyer even says it will beat a qualifying written offer from another.7

Terms that protect you

Exclusivity, scope, payment timing, how long they keep your copy, when they delete it. We negotiate all of it.

Warranties you can live with

Draft licenses tend to push warranty and indemnity risk onto the seller. We push it back.8

Why buyers are paying

AI learned to write. Now it has to learn to work.

AI can already draft the email. What it hasn't seen is how an estimator prices a part nobody has made before, how a quality team traces a bad lot back to its root cause, or how a maintenance tech gets a spindle running again before second shift. That knowledge lives in years of production records at shops like yours, and the budgets are being spent now: just one of our buyers committed $1B over the next 12 months.3

Every job your shop has run has a buyer.

What buyers look for

A real team, years of history, and the systems to prove it.

Past that first filter, buyers pay most for records that show how work gets done, connected across systems, that are clearly yours to license.

A real team

Most buyers start around 20 to 30 full-time employees.1,2,4

Years of history

Usually 3+ years of records. Longer histories, kept consistently, are worth more.2,4

Systems you've lived in

Email, shared drives, CRM, accounting software, scheduling and dispatch, project and support tools.2,5

What stays out

Confidential stays confidential.

Owning a record and having the right to license it are different things. We scope only what's clearly yours to license and leave everything else out from day one.

Can be in scope

  • Work orders, travelers, routings, and setup sheets
  • Inspection reports, NCRs, and corrective actions
  • Maintenance logs and equipment histories
  • Work instructions, SOPs, and your own product specs

Stays out

  • Customer drawings, models, and build-to-print specs
  • ITAR, EAR, and other export-controlled work
  • Data from tools whose terms bar AI use, like SOLIDWORKS PDM or DELMIAworks
  • Anything a contract, NDA, or court order bars you from sharing

Customer names, part numbers, and anything that identifies a customer's part are de-identified before delivery, and you approve the final scope before anything is delivered.
