Make your data AI-ready
Automate years of manual metadata curation with AI agents that enforce your standards,
with full transparency and control.
Years of manual work, now automated
Every governance team has a metadata backlog they'll never clear manually.
Titles, descriptions, classifications, PII tags, steward assignments — the curation work is tedious, endless, and essential. Without it, AI initiatives stall on untrusted data and compliance teams scramble before every audit.
Curation Automation eliminates this backlog. Define what good metadata looks like using natural language standards, and purpose-built AI agents do the rest — enriching your catalog at a scale that would take a manual team years.
A system that earns trust before it acts
Automation at this scale only works if people trust it.
Alation Curation Automation generates metadata using catalog context, query patterns, and admin-provided instructions. Every suggestion is previewable before execution. Existing values are preserved by default. Start with full human review, then widen the aperture as trust builds.
This is automation designed for regulated environments where transparency is non-negotiable.
Metadata that's AI and audit-ready
Incomplete metadata is a primary blocker for enterprise AI and the primary source of compliance risk. Curation Automation addresses both simultaneously.
AI initiatives get consistently complete, contextual, and trustworthy metadata to power initiatives.
Compliance teams get provable enforcement with full auditability — not a scramble before the next audit.
Governance teams shift from authoring metadata to validating outcomes, focused on what actually requires human judgment.
