How the estimate works
This illustrative model scales with team size and retained history, rounding the range outward to $25,000. It has not been calibrated to completed Gato deals. The 500+ setting uses 500 employees; the model covers three to ten years of data. Quality, useful context, permitted uses, preparation, and buyer demand all affect a real offer. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee a transaction.
Established operations.
Useful business history.
For established businesses with at least 30 current full-time employees and three years of usable operational data.
Check your fitAt least three years of usable data
Retained records of real work, with enough detail to understand the decisions and outcomes.
Connected business context
Documents, tickets, or system records that show a task from initial request to completion.
Rights you can establish
A decision-maker and counsel who can confirm what may be licensed and what must stay out.
Someone who knows the systems
A point person who can answer practical questions and help with an approved export if a deal proceeds.
Fit depends on your records, licensing rights, and buyer demand. Company size alone does not determine value.
Your questions.
Straight answers.
What kinds of data could be valuable?
Project histories, process documentation, support records, engineering files, and operational workflows can show AI developers how real work gets done. Buyers look for useful context and consistent history. Records stored in your systems are not automatically yours to license; the rights need review.
What could our company earn?
Value depends on buyer demand, the quality and history of your records, and the rights included in the license. A buyer’s review determines whether an offer follows. We do not promise a price, a buyer, or a completed transaction.
Why work with Gato?
You can approach buyers directly. Gato helps you assess the opportunity, find relevant options, manage conversations, and compare the commercial terms. We advise your business within an agreed mandate; we do not represent an AI lab.
Who controls our data?
You approve the scope, recipients, disclosures, and final agreement. Your counsel reviews ownership, confidentiality, privacy obligations, and permitted use before records are shared. Some records may need to be excluded. You sign directly with the buyer and arrange any approved transfer.
What does it cost?
We agree our scope and fees in writing before work begins, including who pays Gato and any buyer-paid compensation. We help you compare the proceeds your business would receive after fees, preparation costs, and other conditions.
How much work is involved?
Begin with someone who understands the business and its systems. If an opportunity progresses, legal review, technical questions, and an approved export may take more time. We help organize those requests before you commit; timing depends on your records and the buyer’s review.
Do we need to upload anything?
No. Start with your industry, systems, and operating history. Leave out customer details, passwords, and confidential records. This website is a local preview: its assessment flow prepares a draft on your device and does not send an inquiry.
