Guides for companies in Mexico, by industry
Each guide covers the records buyers want, which buyers accept you, published payouts and the local rules for that industry.
- Call centers: Bilingual nearshore centers serving US companies hold English and Spanish recordings; scripts and QA rubrics you wrote are yours.
- Mortgage lenders: Infonavit and Fovissste dominate housing finance; private lenders' processing workflows are useful once borrower identities are removed.
- Insurance agencies: Agency quoting and renewal records for auto and health policies dominate, and health details are sensitive data.
- Accounting firms: CFDI e-invoicing and monthly SAT filing workflows are distinctively Mexican, though Spanish working papers narrow the buyer pool.
- Law firms: Under professional secrecy rules, firm-authored templates are the only realistic candidates.
- Manufacturers: IMMEX plants usually build to US customers' drawings; setup sheets and inspection records you created are yours.
- Logistics companies: Cross-border trucking workflows with the US, from pedimentos to Carta Porte, are distinctive Mexican records.
- Construction companies: Change-order histories from industrial park and nearshoring projects show how cost and schedule problems were handled.
- HVAC and service companies: Job histories and technician notes qualify, though Spanish-only notes narrow the buyer pool.
- IT services companies: Nearshore IT firms' internal runbooks are theirs even when client deliverables belong to US customers.
- Software companies: Code with English comments fits Turing; Spanish-only tickets narrow the field.
- Real estate firms: Rental management records belong to the firm; Inmuebles24 listings are licensed separately.

Common questions
Can I sell my company data to AI companies in Mexico?
Yes. Mercor, Handshake AI and Turing accept companies in Mexico. Fit depends on size, years of records, language and whether you own the data rather than your clients.
How do I sell my company's data to AI companies in Mexico?
List which systems hold your records and how many years they cover, check client contracts and LFPDPPP 2025 for limits, then compare more than one buyer before accepting an offer. Nothing needs exporting until terms are agreed.
Can I sell my customer database to AI companies?
Rarely, and it is not what AI buyers want. Customer lists are personal data under LFPDPPP 2025; buyers pay for workflow records such as tickets, SOPs and project histories with personal details removed.
Is US tax withheld when a company in Mexico licenses data?
For Mexico: 10% with a treaty form (W-8BEN-E).
