The Alex platform

AI You Can Trust, on Data You Can Prove

Alex connects to the systems you already run and keeps one governed view of what your data means, where it came from and whether it can be trusted.

Put the platform to work

Understand more than the data

Alex brings together what the data is, what it means, how it is connected, whether it can be trusted and how it should be used, creating a trusted foundation to:

01

Find and understand trusted data

Connect technical information with business meaning, context, ownership and usage.
02

See relationships, risk and impact

Trace lineage, dependencies, quality, sensitivity and policy across connected assets.
03

Turn intelligence into action

Use that understanding to support decisions, workflows, analytics, data products and AI.
Your systems of record hold the information. This foundation makes it understood, trusted and ready to act on, and it powers Alex Business Solutions: repeatable systems of action for the people doing the work.
Alex Business Solutions

Start with the business problem, not the whole estate

Each solution acts as a system of action, taking your people along a business journey that ends in a decision, approved and recorded, instead of asking them to work through metadata structures and lineage diagrams.
Every solution follows the same four-part arc
01

Detect

Surface the change, issue or gap that starts the journey.

02

Understand

Explain the business impact using lineage, glossary and context.

03

Act

Recommend and run the work inside a guided workflow.

04

Govern

Apply policy, approval and evidence so the outcome holds.

With data, relationships, business meaning, governance and intelligence in one place, Alex helps your teams answer the questions they face every day and act on them.

01 · Understand change & impact

“A pipeline failed overnight. What does it affect, and who is fixing it?”

Instead of the usual scramble, Alex traces the lineage for you and shows which reports, metrics and processes are affected, where it started, and who owns it. The workflow then follows that fix through to done.
02 · Discover the application landscape

“Which applications hold our data, and which ones can we consolidate?”

Alex maps what each application holds and how the data flows between them. From an unmapped landscape it creates three concrete actions: consolidate, retire, remediate. Every overlap is computed from real relationships, never drawn by hand.
03 · Optimise the BI portfolio

“How many of our reports are duplicates we could retire?”

Alex harvests every BI tool into a single inventory, then groups the reports that quietly do the same job and shows which ones nobody opens. You go into that conversation with evidence rather than opinions.
04 · Operate data product health

“Which data products can you trust — and which need attention?”

Alex continuously assesses data product health across quality, compliance, ownership, lineage, adoption and value. It identifies gaps, prioritises actions, and helps teams improve trust, reuse and governance across the data product portfolio.
05 · Give AI trusted context

“What is Net Revenue, and which source should I use?”

Alex proves which data is fit to feed your AI, scored per use case. Sensitive columns surface before training, and nothing is marked ready without a named signer.
06 · Assess your data for AI readiness

“Is my critical data ready to support trusted AI?”

Assess AI readiness across data quality, business meaning, provenance, accessibility and governance. Alex identifies gaps, prioritises remediation, and helps teams provide trusted, governed context for AI applications and agents.
07 · Verify regulatory compliance

“Can we trust this number, from requirement to source?”

See whether a regulatory report can be trusted: every number traced to source, with quality, controls, ownership and evidence checked, without duplicating systems of record or touching raw data.

Why Alex

What sets Alex apart

Context beyond the catalogue

Go beyond technical metadata by connecting business meaning, governance, quality, usage and operational information.

Understand relationships and impact

See how data, systems, reports, processes and policies connect — and understand what depends on what.

From understanding to action

Use intelligence to drive workflows, recommendations, remediation, decisions and automation rather than stopping at documentation.

Built for complex data environments

Work across cloud, legacy, SAP, analytics and AI technologies without creating another isolated platform.

Open and extensible

Put trusted intelligence where work happens — in Alex, your tools and your AI, through APIs, OpenMetaHub and MCP.
Questions we get asked

FAQ

A catalogue tells you what data exists and where it lives. Alex connects that inventory to business meaning, process, ownership, policy and operational signals — and then uses those connections to answer questions a catalogue can’t: what changed, what it affects, whether it can be trusted, and what to do about it. Alex reads from catalogues rather than replacing them.

Each platform understands what lives inside its own ecosystem. They capture technical metadata well, but they can’t see across the enterprise — into the ERP system, the BI layer, the legacy application, or the business process that depends on all three. Alex operates across those boundaries. It doesn’t replace your platforms; it makes the relationships between them visible.

No. Alex connects to what you already run and enriches it. The design principle is integration rather than migration — your data stays where it lives, and existing governance tooling keeps working alongside Alex rather than being displaced by it.

It depends on the journey’s complexity and on the volume and quality of the underlying metadata, integrations and configuration required. These are not press-the-button-and-go applications: each is configured to your metadata model, roles and workflows. After initial scoping and discovery you get an agreed plan with a timeline and milestones.

At minimum, approved platform connections and the relevant source systems. No pre-existing curated metadata is required — Alex connects to the source and harvests what’s available. Individual Business Journeys may need particular metadata types (lineage, quality, usage or business metadata) and those prerequisites are confirmed during scoping.

One platform subscription, with unlimited users and no separate connector licensing. Business Journeys are subscribed separately from the platform, individually or bundled. Implementation and enablement are agreed upfront and documented in a statement of work.
