Who We Are
Atlan is building the missing context layer for data and AI, helping enterprises close the AI value chasm. Today, 95% of AI pilots fail because AI systems don’t understand the context behind data: what it means, how it’s governed, and how it should be used.
Atlan connects to every part of the modern data and AI stack to unify this context into a single, shared layer that both humans and AI agents can rely on.
With Atlan, teams can discover, understand, and trust their data; build and collaborate on a shared body of knowledge; and activate that context across analytics, operations, and AI workflows.Trusted by global enterprises like Mastercard, Workday, General Motors, Unilever, Ralph Lauren, FOX, Nasdaq, and Medtronic, we’re backed by world-class investors including GIC, Insight Partners, Meritech, Peak XV, and Salesforce Ventures
