What makes this collection useful
Expert demonstrations and annotations should state what the expert was asked to do, what evidence was available and how disagreements were resolved. Credentials alone do not establish annotation quality.
Prepare before approaching buyers
Define instructions, compensation, permitted reuse and review criteria before commissioning work. Record versions of the rubric and review a sample independently.
Possible evaluation contexts
Preference evaluation; specialist annotation; demonstrations and reasoning tasks. These are possible uses, not statements of current buyer demand.
Where preparation breaks down
Ambiguous instructions, confidential professional material, unreliable expertise and inconsistent labels.
What to put in the datasheet
Task rubric; annotator qualifications; agreement metrics; review method; permitted use. State how each measure was calculated and which records were excluded. Keep the sample aligned with the collection described.
A practical next step
Create a one-page inventory, separate rights-cleared material from unresolved records and use the readiness checklist. Only then prepare a sample for a verified counterparty under appropriate evaluation terms.
Common questions
Does owning the files mean I can license them?
No. Ownership of the storage or account does not settle copyright, privacy, confidentiality or third-party restrictions. Review the rights in the content and the intended use separately.
Can I get a price without sending the full collection?
A high-level datasheet can support an initial discussion. A buyer may later request a reviewed sample and diligence; avoid sending raw archives at the first contact.
