Not counted on this board
We read 2 named documents that turned out not to be what this board asks about; why is given for each below. They count toward the reading, not the answers.
- aitrainer.work: a router by its own words: it sends owners to other organisations' pages to apply (micro1, Troveo), so it is not itself a buyer
- licensemycompanydata.com: a router by its own words: owners go to each buyer's own application, so it is not itself a buyer
The method in full
Each organisation's own data partner, data licensing and data marketplace pages were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row).
For every page, five questions were answered from its own words: how it takes data, whether it names software tools, workflows or business systems, the data it names, in its words, how an owner gets in, what it says about ownership and rights.
Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the page read does not address the question.
A organisation with several pages reads 'varies' where they disagree.
12 organisations, 13 pages.
Not read yet, so not counted: 3 named documents.
