How Opendatabay Works
How Opendatabay Works - AI and LLM Data Marketplace Platform
Opendatabay is the AI Training Data Exchange connecting data providers with AI developers—reducing data acquisition from weeks to seconds.
The Purpose
We solve the AI data supply problem.
AI developers waste 40-60% of project time sourcing, cleaning, and licensing training data. The end of free scraping has created a data crisis, while existing solutions require weeks of manual negotiation.
Opendatabay makes AI-ready datasets instantly discoverable, legally compliant, and immediately usable.
