What the verified label means
The verified label means the shape of the listed data was measured in the seller's own environment, at the stated date and within the stated scope. The seller chose to publish the findings.
Verification is optional and started by the seller. Listing, sampling, selling and delivery never depend on it.
Where the check runs
AIM Data gateway
For sellers who keep data on their own servers with our open-source, self-hosted gateway. The check runs inside the gateway.
AWS S3
You set up a verifier in your own AWS account using a CloudFormation stack. ai.market gets no read access to your bucket.
Cloudflare R2
This option is opening to sellers now. Install the verifier into your own Cloudflare account with one click: Connect Cloudflare, approve, install. You need a Cloudflare account with Workers Paid ($5/month plus usage).
How it works, step by step
- Run the free check. It confirms the verifier can read the listed data and gives you a quote. There is no ai.market charge for this check; your own cloud resource costs may apply.
- Describe the data, accept the publication terms, then start the paid verification. A card hold of $1 to $25 is placed.
- Review the findings. They are private to you first. Nothing is published without your choice.
- Choose Publish all findings or Decline publication. You can later choose Withdraw findings.
What it costs
The final charge is twice the measured cloud AI cost, with a $1 minimum, and is never more than the hold or $25.
Cancelling before the AI step voids the hold with no charge. The completed charge stands if you decide not to publish.
What buyers see, and what it does not mean
Buyers see a dated verification result on the listing, with the scope it covered. It describes what the scanner measured, such as row counts, column names and types, the share of missing values and value distributions.
This is a measurement of the data's shape at a date. The data can change after that date. It is not a guarantee of quality, accuracy, legality or fitness for a purpose, or a statement about the seller's company. Read the Terms.
Findings are signed by ai.market's verification service and checked on receipt.
Your data stays with you
Raw data never leaves your environment. Only approved aggregate and structural findings and your consent record reach ai.market. We never receive cell values, sample rows, file locations or credentials from verification.
Some statistics can reveal individual records. Missing-value rates, distinct-value estimates and distribution buckets have a privacy floor. If a statistic would reflect fewer underlying values than the floor allows, it is withheld and the report shows a privacy label in its place. The floor does not hide structural facts such as row counts and column names when the report includes them.
The privacy floor is enforced before findings are sent and again by our servers, using the same arithmetic. A report containing a number the floor forbids does not get verified.
How to start (for sellers)
Open Listings in your dashboard, then open the published listing and choose Verify this data.
