Ford, Corvette and Porsche/Core are basically factory teams as it stands. Risi is about the only true privateer in GTLM right now, though they get customer support from Ferrari. AF Corsa is in a similar position in GTE Pro in the WEC, in that they're not a direct factory team, but are in their case are a semi-factory customer team for Ferrari. And the Dempsey-Proton Porsches (both Pro and Am) are private entries with support from Porsche.

Of course, in GTE Am, outside of AMR, all teams are basically privateers.
