AI Data Governance Assistant

A catalogue nobody documents. We change that in hours.

A data catalogue only pays off once its fields are described and PII-tagged. Doing that by hand, field by field, is the bottleneck. AI DG Assist does it for you, and scores its own confidence so you know what to trust.

Who we work with

The Problem

Onboarding a System Means Documenting Thousands of Fields.

That work is manual, slow, and never finished. It is the reason catalogues sit half-empty and go unused.

  • Most fields blank

    In one 3,781-asset export, 82% arrive with no usable description.

  • PII tagged by guess

    Sensitive fields are missed or labelled inconsistently.

  • 80+ hours per system

    Stewards write descriptions one field at a time.

  • Done again next time

    The same fields get re-documented for every source.
