Inspection, testing and maintenance companies can license their inspection reports, measurements and repair histories to AI companies, because those records show expert diagnosis under real conditions.
Records buyers look for
Inspection and NDT reports with measurements
Calibration and test certificates
Fault reports, diagnoses and repair actions
Asset histories and maintenance schedules
Photos and annotated findings linked to reports
Why AI buyers want them
Few public sources show how a technician moves from a reading to a judgement and a fix. Years of structured reports provide exactly that chain of evidence, decision and outcome.
What to check first
Reports describe client assets, so check client contracts for confidentiality terms.
Remove technician and client contact details.
Safety-critical findings may need client consent to share.
You’re likely a fit if
You have 5+ years of reports in a database or consistent templates
Your contracts allow anonymized reuse, or clients can consent
Reports include measurements and outcomes, not just pass/fail
Frequently asked questions
Our reports are about client assets. Can we still license them?
Often, once client names and identifying details are removed and your contracts allow it. Check confidentiality clauses first.
Are photos and scans useful?
Yes, when they are linked to the report and finding they illustrate.
