Is Your MSP Ticket Data Worth $1,000,000 to an AI Company? | EP185

So I started talking in the cold open about things not always what they seem to be.

And...

You know, I want everybody who's listening to be part of facebook.com slash group slash all things MSP, but I'm assuming that you're in some other it related groups also as I am.

And I am the, in the it business owners group, because I am an it business owner.

And somebody posted the other day, have you seen this seems absurd and extremely risky to sell your ticket history to an AI company.

And it was an ad.

It looks like a real post, but I'm pretty sure it's an ad, but it's the post that this person posted truncated the actual screenshot.

From a company called Arlo, A-R-L-O-H.

And it says a 67 person IT firm gets roughly $1,072,000 estimate for their ticket archive.

So I went and I did some research and Arlo is an AI data company that has no discernible information on their website.

Their website is poorly made.

There's no LinkedIn page.

I can't find anyone who works there.

Google Gemini can't find anything about these people.

And as I look at this particular sentence, the estimate, right, they use the tilde before the million.

Why would they estimate 1,072,000? Why wouldn't they just estimate at a million, right? And then they use the word.

Yeah, that was

exactly my thought.

And then they use the word estimate at the end.

So it says estimated, tilde, 107,200 estimate.

You're saying estimate.

That's like saying chai tea.

That's like saying tea tea.

Or naan bread.

It's bread bread.
