How your engineers build, ship and support
Your tickets, reviews and releases, with customer data and client code sorted out up front.
Start my estimateWhy private engineering records matter
Public code is everywhere. What surrounds private work is not, like the ticket behind a change, the review that rejected it and the fix after a bad release.
Over the years, your release notes, tracker and reviews link those steps into one record.
What usually counts
- Commit and repository history. The long arc of a codebase.
- Pull requests and reviews. The objections reviewers raise.
- Tickets and incidents. The path from bug report to resolution.
- Architecture docs and release notes. The reasons behind your system design.
The worry owners raise first: code that is not ours
If you build for clients or run their systems, much of that work may belong to them and may need their permission. Who owns what is settled during scoping, and any client work can be fully excluded. Contracts are for your counsel to read. We are not legal advisers.
Customer details inside tickets, chat and logs are replaced with placeholders in the copy.
What can stay out
- Client projects. Left out by default, unless you and your counsel say otherwise.
- Core products. Any repo or period can stay out.
- Credentials. Never requested or shared.
After the form
Within minutes of your estimate form, a specialist from License Your Data reaches out to book a 15-minute call under NDA. The records you scope in become a de-identified copy, prepared by License Your Data. A sample goes to you for approval, and buyers license the copy after that.
Owner questions
- Do we stay the owner?
- Yes. What buyers license is a copy, never your code itself.
- Is there a fee?
- Nothing. There is no cost to you.
- Will anyone get into our repos?
- No. Your originals stay in your systems. License Your Data prepares a de-identified copy.
- What should we get ready?
- None needed. Knowing which tools you run and about since when is enough, and nobody requests an export.
