What should a reseller ask for in a sample, and what limits apply?
Ask for a sample covering every outcome branch, near-threshold cases, rules, schema and a task subset, and confirm in writing how the sample may be shown or redistributed.
**Ask for a sample that lets you test the hard parts, not a showcase.**
**Cases.** A slice that includes approvals within limit, escalations that end in approval, decline and return with conditions, and cases just either side of each threshold.
**Rules.** The delegation matrix and a few policy documents with versions, so you can check decisions against them.
**Documentation.** The manifest, schema file, known limitations and generation notes.
**Tasks.** A small task subset with graders and, if relevant, an environment reset you can run yourself.
**Limits to confirm.**
- Whether the sample is for your internal evaluation only, or may be shown to prospective customers. - Whether it may be redistributed, quoted in a listing or used to build demonstrations. - How long you may keep it and what happens to derived work. - The size of the sample, which is agreed as part of the pilot rather than fixed in advance.
**Remember.** The sample is generated, not real business records. Treat grounding and disclosure risk as things to inspect, and do not describe the sample to others as anonymised or compliant.
Put the permitted uses in writing before you share anything outside your team.
A well-chosen sample lets you test quality and fit quickly, while clear limits on its use keep you within licence.
