Private codebases with their history: commits, reviews, issues and fixes. Labs estimate how many useful coding tasks a codebase yields, which is why quotes for similar code vary widely.

What drives the price

Commit and review history, not just the final code.
Issues linked to the commits that fixed them.
Real production code beats tutorials and boilerplate.
Languages and domains labs are short on.
Clear ownership: no client code you don't have rights to.

Before you sign

✓Check your client contracts. Code you wrote for clients may not be yours to sell.
✓Remove secrets, keys and customer data before handing anything over.
✓Ask whether the buyer wants commit history, and price it separately if so.
✓Get more than one quote. Buyers value the same code very differently.
