Company size
For company-size screening, a 20–29 employee company falls below micro1’s published 30+ target. Centific must be scoped against its own eligibility description; silence is not acceptance.
Centific vs micro1
Direct licensing meets direct licensing. Neither advertised amounts nor a public seller route establish what your business will receive.

Which difference matters to your company?
Data fit
For your existing records, start with category fit: Centific lists CRM, contracts, projects, email, finance, healthcare operations, HR, ITSM and warehouses; micro1 lists SOPs, knowledge bases, CRM, projects, QA and internal processes. Ask each which subset has active demand before preparing exports.
Payment trigger
Centific: Most partnerships reach first accepted contribution in 6–10 weeks; payment on acceptance. Acceptance estimate is not a payout SLA. micro1: Payment timing not established; ask the provider. These clocks measure different stages, not equivalent payout deadlines; ask for a written acceptance-to-payment interval.
Shared diligence, not shared guarantees.
Both routes need lawful rights to the material. Removing names does not remove confidentiality obligations or re-identification risk. Require sample approval, buyer-use restrictions, precise payment triggers and downstream retention/deletion terms.
Seller-outcome evidence
Centific: No independently audited operating-business payout established in this research. Provider cases and partnership confirmations do not establish a typical seller outcome.
micro1: No independently audited operating-business payout established in this research. Provider cases and partnership confirmations do not establish a typical seller outcome.
