Before you sign, know which AI comes with the software.
Every piece of software now ships AI features, often turned on by default. Before you buy: what they read, where the data goes, whether they learn from it, and what they cost on top.
The question
“Which AI comes with this software, and where does our data go?” Sales sheets talk about features, rarely about their terms. A vendor's AI subprocessors, training on your data, usage billing are found in legal pages that change without notice.
With Ojja Watch
- The AI fact sheet of the candidate software, in the same template as the others: what the AI does, the model, what it reads, where the data goes, training on your data, default activation, billing, the frameworks the catalog links to it, the sources and the date.
- Editions compared: what changes from one edition to another.
- What you already have: whether an equivalent feature is included in your licenses.
- A piece of software missing from the catalog: you suggest it, and it enters the qualification queue.
Declared or committed by contract
The vendor writes on its page that it does not train its models on your data. Has it written that in its contract?
For each fact, the fact sheet says where it comes from: “declared by the vendor”, on its product page, in its documentation or in a blog post; or “committed by contract”, in its data processing agreement (DPA), an AI addendum or its terms. Each fact cites its document, with its address and the date it was read.
First for four facts: training on your data, where the data is processed, retention, the intellectual property indemnity. When the vendor's page and its contractual documents do not say the same thing, the fact sheet shows both, side by side.
When the vendor says nothing, the fact sheet says so: “not documented”.
Ojja reads the documents the vendor publishes, never your contract: your negotiated contract may differ.
Ojja expresses no view on the scope or the validity of a clause.

What Ojja does not do
Ojja recommends no software and resells no license. It gives the facts, sourced and dated.
