Solution

Data cataloging that AI can reason over.
Not just describe.

Organizations need to describe, classify, and govern complex data, and make it accessible to both people and AI systems with confidence. Data Graphs goes beyond simple catalog tools to deliver a living, interconnected map of your data landscape that is both human-navigable and machine-readable.

From scattered knowledge to structured intelligence.

The challenge

Fragmented data in an AI-first world

Data is scattered across siloed systems, stored in inconsistent formats, and locked behind tools that were never designed for the age of AI. At the same time, the rise of Agentic AI demands a foundation that goes far beyond traditional databases or document stores. AI systems need governed, relationship-rich, semantically consistent data to reason over, not just retrieve from.

The gap between where most enterprise data sits today and what AI-driven systems need is significant. Filling that gap requires more than a database or a simple metadata catalog. It requires a multi-capability data backbone.

Why Data Graphs for data cataloging
🏷
Semantic classification, not flat tags
Classifications are first-class graph entities with their own hierarchies, relationships, and metadata. A single dataset can be classified against multiple industry-standard schemes simultaneously.
🔗
Multi-taxonomy traversal
Classify entities against multiple classification systems at once, with full traversal and query capability across those classifications. Go beyond simple tags to interconnected taxonomies.
🛡
Governed, auditable metadata
Define metadata schemas, apply controlled vocabularies, assign ownership and stewardship, and track data lineage and provenance, all within an auditable framework.
🤖
AI-ready from day one
Your catalog is instantly accessible to AI agents and copilots via native MCP services and GraphRAG. No integration work needed. Humans and AI access the same governed data.
📐
Domain-agnostic modeling
Visual domain modeling tools let you define your own schema: the concepts, relationships, and controlled vocabularies that matter to your organization. No rigid, predefined structures.
📄
Structured and unstructured content
Documents, PDFs, images, and rich media can be ingested, linked to structured entities, and made searchable alongside formal metadata. AI-assisted workflows extract structure from unstructured sources.
Case study

The Gates Foundation and global agricultural data cataloging

The Gates Foundation deployed Data Graphs to address one of the most complex data cataloging challenges in global agriculture: bringing together diverse, fragmented agricultural and AgriTech datasets from around the world and organizing them against industry-standard dictionaries and classification systems.

Using Data Graphs' flexible domain modeling and semantic classification capabilities, the Foundation built a governed data catalog that describes datasets in structured, machine-readable detail, mapped to recognized agricultural vocabularies.

Outcomes
Human users discover, understand, and evaluate datasets through intuitive search and AI-powered natural language interaction
Machine-readable foundation for downstream AI and analytics workflows
Automated systems can reliably interpret and act on the cataloged data
Full interoperability across multi-stakeholder environments

Deployed in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment where interoperability, governance, and AI readiness are non-negotiable.

Model any domain

Your schema, your vocabulary, your rules

Data Graphs is domain-agnostic by design. Its visual domain modeling tools allow organizations to define their own schema, capturing the concepts, relationships, and controlled vocabularies that matter to their business. Whether you are modeling financial instruments, agricultural products, clinical evidence, media assets, heritage collections, or regulatory records, Data Graphs adapts to your domain.

AI-assisted workflows support the extraction of structured data from unstructured sources such as PDFs and images, accelerating the transition from document-centric to data-centric operations.

Agentic AI access

Your catalog talks to AI natively

Data Graphs includes a fully hybrid GraphRAG and Agentic AI layer as a core capability. Users ask natural language questions grounded in the truth of their own governed data, with no coding required.

The same AI layer is exposed externally via native Model Context Protocol (MCP) services. External AI agents, copilots, and automated workflows can interact with your catalog directly, with governance, permissions, and business rules enforced automatically at the point of query.
