Who pays owners for company records and code

Licenses private source code and its git history to AI labs, non-exclusive, at a published rate per million tokens.

Who qualifies: Private code you own or have the right to license. Not client-owned, previously public or forked, and nothing with confidential data or conflicting third-party rights.

Note: The sign-up hands owners to pre.dev, which runs the counting and licensing (docs/BUYERS.md, Pangea).

Pre Dev Corp licenses private codebases to AI labs, non-exclusive, under one agreement signed once, at a published rate per million tokens. It runs the counting and licensing behind Pangea's program; Pangea is not named on pre.dev's public pages.

Who qualifies: Individuals (a solo developer or fractional CTO with their own codebases) and agencies or companies. Private repositories; public repos and forks are out.

Note: pre.dev's home page carries its code licensing section (also at /code-licensing); its sign-up at /license asks only whether you are an individual or a company. Pangea's form hands owners to pre.dev/license?ref=pangea, and a signed-in pre.dev dashboard labels such accounts "via Pangea" (founder, 2026-10-21). So pre.dev is the licensor on Pangea referrals.
