On the record
What Grepped publishes about itself
Grepped publishes the policies an owner would want to read. Its footer links to Security, Privacy and Terms pages, and its terms were updated on October 14, 2026 and name Delaware law. Its security page says access is read-only, limited to sources you approve, and that data is licensed to AI labs and research teams and not sold to your competitors. Those are Grepped's own statements.3,1,5,6
Grepped also runs a public marketplace page that lists data sets by sector, team size and history. No seller is named there, so ask for an owner you can speak to.7
Why owners ask
Grepped is young, and its site shows no people
Grepped's domain is less than a year old, and a homepage with no named team leaves you with little to look up. Trustpilot has no page for grepped.ai either, so you will not find owners' accounts there.2,3,8
Treat any early estimate as an indication, not an offer, which is how Grepped's terms describe it. A comment in its site code calls the estimator "deliberately optimistic, above all for 100+ people", and its terms say nothing is binding until both sides sign, so rely only on a signed agreement.9,4
Five minutes
Four checks on Grepped you can run yourself
Search Grepped AI, Inc. in Delaware's free entity name search, which shows the file number and date of incorporation. We took the company details from Grepped's terms, so this is the outside step.1
Read the security page and note what it says about marking anything off-limits, then ask how Grepped handles a personal detail that slips through.5
Ask anyone who contacts you for their full name and role, then find them on LinkedIn and see whether their profile ties them to Grepped. Grepped also runs referral and partner programs, so the person contacting you may not work for it, and you can ask whether they earn a referral fee.3,10
Check where the message came from. Grepped's own site is grepped.ai, so a form or email on any other address deserves a second look.3
What to ask
What Grepped should answer before you connect anything
Ask Grepped who runs the company day to day, and who would see your records during processing. Ask whether the license is exclusive, how long it keeps the processed copy, and who is responsible if personal details slip through. Ask for an owner you can speak to, since none is named on the site. Grepped says it writes retention into your agreement, so read that clause before granting access to anything.5,3
Connecting an app is not a neutral step. Grepped's privacy policy says that as soon as you connect one it pulls a small sample, about the last 30 days or a few dozen records of each kind, and keeps a copy in a private Dropbox for its team to review. You can change what it pulls, and the full pull comes only after you ask and sign, but its security page reads as if access starts after signing, so ask what the sample includes before you connect.11,5
Grepped states no minimum headcount, and it asks you to share only data you have the right to share. If you want to weigh it against other options, our match introduces you to Grepped and the other buyers we work with that take a company like yours.12,13
