About the Role / About the Job
This opportunity invites software developers, tech founders, engineering teams, and code owners to submit existing software repositories for potential licensing. We welcome all types of projects, whether they are abandoned startups, discontinued products with significant codebases, personal or side projects no longer maintained, internal tools, or previous SaaS products that are no longer commercially active. Projects do not need to be commercially successful or currently maintained to be considered.

How It Works
- Submit your repository for an initial assessment of its potential licensing value.
- Receive an evaluation based on the codebase and the applicable acceptance criteria.
- Explore licensing opportunities if your repository qualifies.
- Get compensated according to the agreed licensing terms if a transaction is completed.
The evaluation and licensing process is designed to help code owners understand the potential value of their repositories without the commitment of a traditional development engagement.
Compensation
For standard non-exclusive licensing, current reference rates are:
- $100 per 1M source-code tokens
- $40 per 1M Git-history tokens
Each repository is assessed individually, and you can review the estimated value before deciding whether to move forward.
Requirements
- Software development experience or ownership of an existing software product, application, or repository.
- Full ownership or legal rights to license the submitted source code.
- Access to original code repositories, including discontinued products, abandoned projects, internal tools, or independently developed software.
- Code must not include third-party material that you are not permitted to sublicense.
