| --- | --- | --- |
| [micro1](https://origindatapartners.com/guides/micro1-company-data-partnerships) | Partial fit | Closed companies with 50+ peak staff; operating companies considered case by case; no named category |
| [Mercor](https://origindatapartners.com/guides/mercor-data-monetization-program) | Good fit | Names real estate; wants leases and inspection reports; pays by wire on delivery |
| [Handshake AI](https://origindatapartners.com/guides/handshake-ai-data-partnerships) | Good fit | Names real estate; 20+ staff and 3+ years; accepts companies outside the US |

| micro1, large-scale datasets | $500K to $2M | €450K to €1.8M |
