Micro1 offered Hampton $800K for its Slack, Notion and Gmail data

Micro1, a data lab that reached about a $1B run rate in 8 months, pays private companies for internal data and resells it to frontier labs. It offered Sam's Hampton $800K plus $50K for each referral. Sam declined because Hampton is a confidential community, but he says it can make sense for e-commerce brands.

“And basically what they've been doing is they've been going to privately held companies like my company Hampton, and they say, hey, if you plug in your Notion, your Slack, your Gmail, your Drive, and a bunch of other information, and they will give you $800,000. They offered us $800,000 for our data. We said no because— part of the whole thing of Hampton is like, it's a private community. We're not gonna do that. But they offered me $800,000 to do this.”
