# metagem.ai — Enterprise Context for the AI Era > Metagem extracts and unifies business context from any data source. AI agents build a governance-ready semantic layer so your enterprise AI and reporting are grounded in trusted, verifiable meaning. ## What is Metagem? Metagem deploys AI agents that harvest metadata from structured and unstructured sources, build a unified semantic layer, and keep it governed with human-in-the-loop validation. The result: enterprise context that is always accurate, auditable, and ready for AI consumption. ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Self-Maintaining Business Glossary - AI agents scan databases, BI tools, and documents to extract business terms - Automatically identify synonyms, surface conflicts, and build relationships - Domain owners validate with minimal effort; AI keeps it updated ### 2. Business-to-IT Lineage - Maps business concepts (like "Customer ID") to technical implementations across systems - Bridges the gap between KUNNR in SAP, CUST_ACCOUNT_ID in Oracle, AccountId in Salesforce - Continuous monitoring detects schema changes and proposes updates ### 3. Post-M&A Data Integration - Harmonize master data across acquired companies in weeks, not years - Unify business terminology when "Revenue" means different things - Connect ERPs, PIMs, and legacy systems including AS/400 ### 4. Unstructured Data Governance - Scan SharePoint, Confluence, network drives, and cloud storage - Classify documents by sensitivity, importance, and risk level - Extract business knowledge for AI initiatives ### 5. GenAI Governance - Ground large language models in verified business context - Ensure AI outputs are auditable and traceable to source definitions - Prevent hallucinations with a governance-ready semantic layer ### 6. SAP Migration & Adoption - Accelerate S/4HANA migrations with automated metadata discovery - Map legacy custom fields and business logic before migration - Reduce risk and consulting costs ## Key Agents - **Harvest Agent**: Scans structured and unstructured sources for metadata - **Build Agent**: Creates semantic maps using AI/ML algorithms - **Govern Agent**: AI-assisted validation with human oversight ## Integrations Metagem connects to: - Data warehouses: Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift - ERPs: SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365 - BI Tools: Power BI, Tableau, Looker - Documentation: SharePoint, Confluence, Google Drive - Legacy systems: AS/400, mainframes ## Company Information - **Location**: Ghent, Belgium - **Website**: https://metagem.ai - **Contact**: https://meetings-eu1.hubspot.com/sean32 - **LinkedIn**: https://www.linkedin.com/company/metagem/ ## Use Cases 1. **Business Glossary**: /use-cases/business-glossary 2. **Business-IT Lineage**: /use-cases/business-it-lineage 3. **Post-M&A Integration**: /use-cases/post-ma 4. **Unstructured Data**: /use-cases/unstructured-data 5. **GenAI Governance**: /use-cases/genai-governance 6. **SAP Migration**: /use-cases/sap-migration 7. **Fast-Track Governance**: /use-cases/fast-track-governance 8. **Complete Data Catalog**: /use-cases/complete-catalog 9. **Digital Twin**: /use-cases/digital-twin 10. **Govern Unstructured Data**: /use-cases/govern-unstructured ## FAQ **What is a semantic layer?** A business-friendly abstraction between raw data and users/AI. Translates technical schemas into meaningful business terms. **How long does implementation take?** Most organizations see their first semantic layer running within weeks, not months. **Do we need to move our data?** No. Metagem works with your data where it lives. We harvest metadata without moving actual data. **Does it integrate with existing data catalogs?** Yes. Metagem pulls and pushes metadata to existing catalogs while adding automated discovery and maintenance.
