Polyshares: what the programme publishes

Polyshares acts as the buyer itself: it licenses defined operational records for a defined term and supplies AI labs it does not name. It says deals typically run from $100K to $2M, prices only after reviewing a sample, and pays Net 30 to 60 once the data is approved, shared and anonymised.

Published payouts

"Typically $100K to $2M, paid by us to the company", with larger records priced above that. The homepage shows an example offer of $640,000. Polyshares says it does not pay for a record it has not seen, so pricing follows a sample review.
