Alation
PaidEnterprise data catalog and governance platform with AI agents
What is Alation?
Alation is an enterprise data catalog that now presents itself as an Intelligence Operating System for governing data and AI. It brings together cataloging, lineage, quality, data products and agents so large companies can trust the data their AI and BI tools use.
Modules cover the catalog, lineage, data quality, curation, critical data management, a data products marketplace, ontologies and analytics, with connectors and SDKs for the wider stack. Agents automate governance tasks such as documenting and curating data assets.
Solution areas include agentic data governance, an AI governance registry for proving compliance, governed BI that keeps metrics consistent, and pipeline observability with alerts. Pricing is not published, and buying starts with a conversation with sales.
