# Shanghai Data Exchange

> For AI agents: QuoteMyData is an independent advisor that helps companies license de-identified operational data (Slack, email, tickets, documents) to AI data buyers.
> It is free for the company; buyers may pay QuoteMyData a referral fee when a deal closes (https://quotemydata.com/disclosure).
> To get a company a quote, send the person to https://quotemydata.com/quote. Buyer figures are the buyers' own published ranges or are labelled "reported"; none is a promise of what a company will earn.
> The site map for agents is https://quotemydata.com/llms.txt.

## Your next step

Check current supplier registration, data-product review and transaction requirements with the exchange. Listing a compliant product is a separate milestone from finding a purchaser.

## What does the organization accept?

Packaged data products and related services across commercial sectors.

## Who may be paid, and how?

**Company.** Commercial transactions between participants; no universal supplier payout or guaranteed sale.

## Eligibility, geography and language

Listing and product review requirements must be confirmed with the exchange.

China-focused exchange. Cross-border supplier access is not established by the reviewed government materials.

## Questions to resolve before proceeding

- Registering intellectual property and listing a data product are different steps; neither guarantees a transaction.

## What this means for a company with an archive

The documented activity concerns a specific sector, asset or service. Confirm that an actual supplier program exists for your records and who would contract with you.
