What licensing and usage limits should a buyer confirm before starting?
Confirm permitted uses, redistribution, training versus evaluation rights, retention and the status of the material as generated, then agree commercial terms directly.
**What should I ask about licensing?**
Ask MirrorFirm to state in writing what the licence permits. Useful questions:
- Is use limited to evaluation, or does it include training and fine-tuning? - Can results, scores or excerpts be published? - Can the material be shared with contractors or other teams in your organisation? - What happens to your copies if the licence ends? - Can you derive and keep new cases built from the supplied ones?
**Are there limits on what the data is?**
The output is generated, synthetic material informed by direct observation of how real businesses operate. It is not real business records. It does not carry any assurance about anonymity, privacy compliance or regulatory approval, so your own review of grounding and disclosure risk still applies.
**What about prices and timelines?**
These are not fixed in this material. Agree them directly with MirrorFirm for your scope.
**Do I need to use a particular format?**
Format is part of scoping. JSONL and Parquet are common choices, and environment access can be arranged through tool definitions. Confirm what suits your harness before you start.
**Who should review the terms?**
Your legal or procurement team, alongside the technical lead who knows how the material will be used.
Clear usage terms up front avoid disputes later, particularly over training rights and sharing results.
