Latttice, Empowering Businesses with AI-Driven Data Products
Transform raw data into actionable products instantly with AI-powered innovation
The Data Challenge
Timely data is essential for businesses striving to thrive. By transforming raw data into actionable products, organizations can drive growth, efficiency, and innovation. Yet, the three pillars of complexity, time, and cost, great significant challenges in accessing and utilizing data effectively.
As one large banking and financial service client shared with Gartner: "remember, data products are costly to build & maintain".
Data owners are often dependent on overburdened data teams, leading to reduced quality, and delays that can render the opportunity missed. These bottlenecks hinder timely decision-making and impact a business's ability to remain competitive.
Our Solution
Introducing Latttice
We created Latttice to address these challenges head-on. This AI-powered data product platform enables users to create, secure, and share data product in real time. By redefining how businesses operate, Latttice empowers organizations to move from reactive to proactive decision-making. Let's delve into a real-world use case to see its transformative impact in action.
The Challenge:
Overcoming the Data Bottleneck
Meet Sarah: A Retail Operations Manager
Meet Sarah, a regional manager for a retail company. She oversees dozens of stores, each generating streams of data on sales, inventory, and customer feedback. Sarah's goal is to optimize inventory management, ensuring popular items remain in stock within the right store to meet customer expectations, whilst minimizing surplus inventory.
How would Sarah Achieve this?
To achieve this, Sarah needs insights from multiple systems, sales trends, supply chain updates, store layout, promotional program, and seasonal demand forecasts. However, accessing this data is not straightforward. Sarah relies on her company's data team, which is inundated with requests from other departments. By the time her data request is fulfilled, the information is often outdated, forcing Sarah to act reactively rather than proactively. These delays not only impact inventory management but also risk impacting customer satisfaction and revenue opportunities.
As Mindy Ferguson of AWS notes: "Having real-time data always available is becoming an expectation for customers. It's the world we're living in."
Sarah's challenge illustrates the costs of failing to meet this expectation, missed opportunities, inefficiencies, increased cost, lost revenue, and customer dissatisfaction.
The Solution: Latttice Puts Data Control in Users' Hands
Latttice empowers Sarah to access and create data products instantly to meet her requirements without waiting on the data team. Sarah can ensure that data products are repeatable so Sarah can reuse these data products over time, and that they scale to meet Sarah's needs, be it one store, or many stores. Sarah can also ensure these data products are secure, and easily share with others, broadening knowledge across the organization. The platform's innovative features enable users to overcome traditional data challenges seamlessly.
Key Feature #2
Zero-Code Data Product Creation
Using Latttice CoPilot and Fusion, Sarah can create data products that combine information from different sources. For instance, she can merge sales data with supply chain timelines and inventory levels to monitor stock availability and then use that information to power predictive analytics models for customer purchase or next best action activities.
Latttice ensures Sarah's data products meet all the necessary criteria effortlessly.
As Databricks highlights: "Data products deliver value when users and applications have the right data at the right time, with the right quality, in the right format."
At Data Tiles, we call this the 5 Rs of a data product, including the extra R we believe is necessary, right person (or machine).
Key Feature #3
Embedded Data Governance
Latttice enables robust computational data governance, including data quality, data privacy, and data contracts, ensuring compliance with various data governance policies. Sarah accesses only the data she's authorized to view, and sensitive data is treated appropriately, whilst governance rules run seamlessly in the background.
Latttice adheres to these principles, providing a secure and compliant data environment.
Monte Carlo Data explains: "Data timeliness and governance ensure insights are up-to-date, high-quality, and securely delivered at the required time for their intended use."
Key Feature #4

Within minutes, Sarah can securely connect her preferred tools of choice to the data products which she has built, powering her use cases with actionable insights. By integrating seamlessly with platforms, she already relies on, Latttice enables Sarah to create dynamic dashboards, power analytical models, satisfy organizational reporting requirements, and spend more time understanding and identifying sales trends, inventory levels, and supply chain challenges. These insights allow her to pinpoint stores at risk of stockouts and adjust inventory strategies proactively, ensuring timely and informed decision-making.
Cameron Price, Founder of Data Tiles, explains: "Latttice integrates seamlessly with the any tool of your choice, empowering you to use your data products instantly, to drive smarter decisions in real time."
