The marketplace

Public information is abundant. Proprietary operational data is different. Big Data/Little Guy is building a marketplace where qualified business datasets are described in a consistent format and matched with AI companies looking for specific real-world data. The business owner always decides whether to move forward.

Reach
One dataset. Multiple potential markets.
The same qualified dataset may be relevant to more than one type of buyer, where buyer demand exists. We do not promise multiple buyers or a completed sale for any dataset.

Multiple offer potential
One dataset. Multiple potential offers.
A qualified dataset can be useful to more than one kind of AI company. When demand exists, we present the opportunity to multiple qualified buyers. That gives you a chance to compare instead of relying on one number. You decide whether to proceed.
