A failed company's records can be an asset for creditors.

An estate with 25 or more staff often holds years of email, chat, tickets and documents that AI buyers pay for. We realise that value for the estate. You keep control, and our commission is disclosed to creditors.

How it works

Four steps, with you in control.

01

Assess the estate

Headcount, years of records and which systems survive. A quick view of whether buyers will be interested.

02

Prepare under your control

Rights review, de-identification inside the company's systems, then a motivated-intruder test.

03

Buyers bid

Two to four vetted buyers see an anonymised profile and make offers.

04

Realise and report

You approve the sale. Proceeds go to the estate and our commission is disclosed to creditors.

Commercial applications

What buyers use estate records for.

Real records of how a business worked teach AI systems to do that work. The most valuable are records that show decisions and outcomes.

Training AI agents

Resolved support tickets, won and lost deals and reviewed code show how real work gets done.

Evaluating AI before release

Realistic records let evaluation firms test models on genuine business situations.

Fine-tuning for a sector

Vertical AI start-ups want records from one industry to specialise their tools.

Dataset marketplaces

Platforms list licensed, de-identified datasets for many buyers at once.

Commission

Tiered commission. No sale, no fee.

Paid by the estate from realisations and disclosed to creditors. Any buyer referral fee is credited to the estate.

FAQ

Common questions

Can't find what you need? Contact the team.

Can a company in liquidation do this?

Yes, through the insolvency practitioner. Proceeds go to the estate for creditors, and our commission is disclosed.

Who controls the process?

You do, as office holder. We prepare the records, run the buyer process and report to you; nothing is sold without your approval.

Do you pay for introductions?

No. We never pay or receive any fee for the introduction of an insolvency appointment. Any buyer referral fee is credited to the estate.

What size of estate is worth looking at?

Usually 25 or more staff with two or more years of email, chat, tickets or documents. Smaller estates rarely interest buyers.

What if nothing sells?

Then there's no fee. Commission is only paid from realisations.

Have an estate with years of records?

Tell us the headcount and which systems survive. We'll say plainly whether buyers are likely to be interested.
