Metadata Management Platform

Get the same answer
from AI and BI

For enterprise data teams whose AI agents, BI tools, and warehouses disagree, MetaKarta traces each definition to its source, gives it an owner and version history, and compiles it into Snowflake, Databricks, Power BI, Tableau, and more. Your agents get the same definitions as compiled context. You keep your business logic, and nothing sits in your query path.

Built for the people who own the numbers

Data architecture leads

One upstream change broke three reports

See every column, job, and report that depends on a change before it deploys, with lineage parsed from the SQL, ETL, and BI code that moves the data.
BI and analytics engineering leads

Our BI tools disagree on the same metric

Power BI and Tableau report different revenue, and a move off MicroStrategy, BusinessObjects, Cognos, or OBIEE would rebuild every definition again.
Governance and metadata leads

An auditor asks how a number was produced

Show what a metric meant on any date, who changed it and why, and every report and system it flowed through. The audit answer is a query.
AI platform leads

We're putting AI agents into production

Snowflake Cortex Analyst, Databricks Genie, or your own agents through MetaKarta MCP, all answering from the definitions your dashboards use.
Outcomes

Trusted BI. Reliable AI.
Defensible governance.

Inconsistent reporting, unreliable AI, and governance you can't demonstrate share one root cause: business logic fragmented across the stack. MetaKarta fixes it by enforcing shared definitions across the systems you already use.

• Consistent metrics

• Clear sources

• Consistent answers

• Lower risk

• Proven governance

• Faster audits

Solutions

Start with the question you're already being asked

Every data team fields the same hard questions from the business. MetaKarta answers each of them from one set of governed definitions, compiled into the tools where the question comes up.

Why don't the numbers match?

Define each metric once and compile it natively into every BI tool. Power BI and Tableau return the same revenue number because both read the same governed definition.

What context did the AI agent use?

Deliver compiled definitions, relationships, policies, and provenance to agents via MetaKarta MCP. Every answer arrives with the metadata evidence that grounded it.

Can we migrate without rebuilding everything?

Reverse-engineer semantic models from legacy and modern BI, import them as governed starting points, and compile into your target platforms. Your existing models carry into the new stack.

How many tools are we paying to keep in sync?

Replace an assembled solution of metadata tools with one platform. Lineage, catalog, governance, and compiled semantics share one repository, so the integration work and licenses go away.

What breaks if we change this?

Show every dependency before a change deploys, and trace any broken number back to the exact code that caused it, using parser-based, column-level lineage across systems.

Can we prove it to the auditor?

Demonstrate version history, point-of-use policy, and the full provenance chain for any definition, on any date. Built for SOX, CSRD, ISSB, and Al audit mandates.
Capabilities

Engineered together from the start

Most enterprises run several metadata tools, bought at different times for different problems and held together with custom integrations that need constant care. MetaKarta’s Data Lineage, Data Catalog, Data Governance, and Semantic Compiler read from and write to one metamodel, so nothing has to be integrated or synchronized after the fact.

Data Lineage

Build lineage by parsing the code that moves your data: SQL, ETL jobs, BI semantic models, pipeline definitions, and even COBOL copybooks. It is column-level and cross-system, from source to the report or AI output it feeds. Parsed code captures what was designed to run, including paths run-time logs never see. Lineage by design, not by observation.

Overview

Any number traces to source in seconds, at the column level

Lineage runs from source through transformation to AI output

Full version and configuration management supports audit answers

Data Catalog

Document every asset in the estate and make it findable, with profiling, semantic discovery, and social curation built in. Every entry carries its source, its owner, and its lineage, so context arrives with its evidence attached. It reads from the same repository as lineage, governance, and semantics, so it stays current with the systems it documents.

Overview

Definitions are findable with lineage attached

Agents and humans share the same governed context

Ownership and meaning are documented where people look

Data Governance

Define policy once and let the platform carry it. Stewardship workflows assign ownership and accountability, automated classification finds PII and sensitive data at scale, and access controls compile into the systems where the data is actually used. Every governance decision is versioned, so you can answer what a policy said, who changed it, and when.

Overview

Stewardship assigns ownership and accountability

Policy travels with the definition into an AI agent's context

Version history, policy, and audit trail live in one view

Semantic Compiler

Import and model business logic once, then compile and deploy it into native formats, including Snowflake Semantic Views, Databricks Metric Views, Power BI semantic models, and Tableau data sources. The artifacts are native and customer-owned, with no proprietary run-time dependency. AI agents ground on the same compiled definitions your BI tools run, so the same question gets the same answer everywhere.

Overview

Portable, customer-owned native artifacts are deployed to targets

Definitions are native in an AI agent's grounding context

The enforced definition is the audited definition

Technology

The engine inside the platforms you already run

MetaKarta's metadata technology runs inside the products of Microsoft Purview, Informatica from Salesforce, IBM, Oracle, and Qlik Talend. Compiled artifacts are native objects in your tools, and the source definitions are SHL files your team keeps in Git.

We don't sit in your query path. We've already compiled into your database and tools.

In practice

“Knowing exactly where a number comes from, how it was transformed, and what it means in each system is a hard requirement for a regulated insurance environment. MetaKarta gives our teams traceability across the entire chain, and it works at the design level, not just at runtime. That’s what makes it defensible.”

Frequently asked
questions

What is MetaKarta?

MetaKarta is a Metadata Management Platform from Meta Integration Technology, Inc. It connects data lineage, data catalog, and data governance on one shared metadata repository, and compiles governed business definitions into the native formats of databases, BI tools, and AI agents. The platform is built on nearly 30 years of OEM metadata technology embedded in products from Microsoft Purview, Informatica from Salesforce, Oracle, IBM, and Qlik Talend.

How does MetaKarta fit into an existing data stack?

MetaKarta connects to your existing estate through 400+ connectors covering legacy and modern systems, on-premises and cloud. It harvests metadata from the tools you already run, then compiles governed definitions back into them natively. Nothing sits in your query path and there's no runtime dependency, so current workflows keep working exactly as they do today.

Do we need to replace our current tools?

No. MetaKarta integrates with the databases, pipelines, and BI tools you already have deployed, and value starts with the estate as it stands. Many teams do consolidate point tools for lineage, cataloging, or governance over time, since those functions run on MetaKarta's shared repository, but displacement is optional.

How does MetaKarta support AI initiatives?

MetaKarta delivers governed business definitions, relationships, policies, and provenance to AI systems. Agents query through structured consumption in Snowflake Cortex Analyst and Databricks Genie, or connect via MetaKarta MCP, and each answer comes back with the supporting compiled context behind it. Column-level lineage provides an auditable provenance chain from data source through transformation to output, ready for emerging AI governance mandates.

How is MetaKarta different from a data catalog?

MetaKarta includes a full data catalog and goes further: it compiles governed definitions into the systems that consume data. Documentation describes what should be true. Compilation makes it true. That's the difference between recording a definition and enforcing it.

How long does a typical implementation take?

Most teams start delivering value within weeks. MetaKarta deploys alongside existing systems and harvests metadata through connectors, so initial lineage and catalog coverage lands quickly, with scope growing from there. Full enterprise rollouts vary with the complexity of the estate.

Is MetaKarta available on-premises?

Yes. MetaKarta runs as hosted SaaS, self-hosted in your own cloud, or entirely on-premises within your own infrastructure, providing feature parity across all 3 deployment models.
