Earn from new records each year
Keep better records. Earn from them year after year.
We advise you on saving more useful information as you run your business as usual. If helpful, we can provide extra software at no charge. We prepare the records you approve and help you earn from future sales.
What it means
What is Data Farming?
We call this Data Farming: helping you keep better records of work you already do, so there is more useful information to sell each year.
It is not about recording more of everything. It is about noting down the useful parts: the decisions your team made, the mistakes they corrected, the unusual cases and how things turned out.
Same work, better records
- Before “Part rejected.” After “Part rejected — too thick. Cutting tool worn. Replaced. Next batch passed.”
- Before “Delivery late.” After “Late — van broke down. Second driver sent. Arrived same day.”
- Before “Customer complaint closed.” After “Charged twice. Refund issued. Customer confirmed.”
Illustrative examples.
What is included
We do the work. You keep running your business.
What we provide depends on the plan we agree with you.
A look at how you keep records today
We see what you already note down and where it is kept.
A simple plan for better records
Based on what buyers find useful, we suggest what is worth noting down.
Small, practical changes
A few extra choices on a job sheet, a reason box on a return form. Agreed with you first.
Extra software at no charge, if helpful
Where it is part of the agreed plan, we provide, set up and look after it.
Regular checks
We review what has been kept, check its quality and prepare the records you approve.
We sell, you get paid
We sell the approved records on and pay you under your agreement.

Your people, your rules
We do not start recording everything
- We start with records you already keep.
- Recording calls, screens or video is optional and needs separate approval.
- Before anything new starts, we agree what is kept, why, who can see it, how long it is kept and what stays out. Your staff are told.
- Personal apps, passwords and private activity are always left out.
- We never record every keystroke, and we never switch on watching everything by default.
Blurring faces is one protection. It does not by itself make it acceptable to record or sell a video.
Money
How you earn
The goal is to help you earn more from the same business you run today. You are paid for the records that qualify, under your agreement — including any condition that payment follows a sale.
How much you earn depends on the records that are accepted and the sales that are completed. A fixed yearly payment is only offered if it is written into your contract.
If you want to stop
Clear terms for ending the agreement
Written into your contract
- How long the agreement lasts
- Which records and time periods it covers, if you agree to work only with us
- How either side can end it
- How any extra software is switched off and removed
- What happens to your records: returned or deleted
Sales already made
Permission already given to a buyer may continue under its terms after the agreement ends. Once records have been used to train AI, that cannot always be undone. We explain this before you sign.
Questions about Data Farming
What is Data Farming? Will we get paid every year?
Data Farming means keeping better records of the work your business already does, so there is more useful information to sell each year. We advise you and, if helpful, provide extra software at no charge. You earn from new sales under your agreement. A payment every year is only guaranteed if your contract says so.
Will you record our staff, calls or computer screens?
Only if a particular recording method is needed, agreed and allowed. We start with records you already keep. Any new recording requires the right notices, permissions and protections. Private activity and information you have excluded must stay out. We do not start recording everything by default.
What does it cost, and how much work will our team have to do?
We explain all charges or deductions before you agree. For Data Farming, we advise you and can provide extra software at no charge if it would help. Your team helps us check the records, approve what is shared and agree any small changes. We handle the preparation and sales work.
