Alation Intelligence Operating System

What it does

Alation Intelligence Operating System (AIOS) is an enterprise platform built to keep data apps and AI agents accurate. It extracts metadata, profiling, and lineage from warehouses, databases, BI tools, ETL pipelines, and SaaS applications, then grounds agents in certified metadata, data products, and ontologies rather than raw schemas.

Teams build or clone agents in Agent Studio, evaluate them against query history before production, and trace the context behind wrong answers so a steward can approve one fix for every agent. Agents are reachable over MCP and REST from tools such as Slack, Teams, Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT. Alongside this, AI governance registers models and agents across platforms and maps them to regulations such as the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001.

This suits enterprise data and governance leaders running multi-platform estates who need auditable, governed AI. Access starts with a 30-minute call with an Alation expert. The value depends on connecting and curating the data estate, and accuracy depends on the evaluation sets and approval workflows each customer configures.
