The Dilemma

A tough choice, or is it?

It's a tough choice, isn't it? Time is irreplaceable and precious, while money opens doors to opportunities and security. But what if you didn't need to choose? What if it were possible to have both?

That's where Latttice, our AI powered zero code platform, enters, helping businesses save both time and money by streamlining data operations and boosting efficiency.

The Reality

The time and money trade off in business

In today's business landscape, the tug of war between time and money is all too familiar. To speed up processes, companies often invest in expensive tools or resources. On the flip side, saving money usually means relying on outdated, manual methods that eat up valuable time. This constant trade off hampers efficiency, innovation, and ultimately growth.

Working on data projects globally, I've seen firsthand how companies struggle with this balance. In their quest to become data driven, both time and money are wasted on lengthy processes or costly infrastructure. The problem? Data access. Domain owners and tech teams find themselves at odds over how to make data accessible, and delays follow.

Our Commitment

Solving the access problem

That's why the team and I at Data Tiles committed to solving this problem. Easy access to data shouldn't require endless coding or restructuring. By putting zero code data solutions directly into the hands of the data owner, Latttice frees up time for both the domain owners and the tech teams. No more loggerheads over data access, just seamless operations that save both time and money.

The Solution

How Latttice eliminates the dilemma

Latttice delivers a zero code data mesh that simplifies data access and management. Four design choices make the trade off disappear:

No more data restructuring

Traditional data solutions demand complex restructuring just to make data usable, slow and costly. Latttice lets you access data wherever it's stored, without the tedious migration.

Preparation and restructuring typically consumes 80% of the time spent on data analytics.

On the fly governance with ABAC

Applying governance traditionally means waiting for IT or engineering. Latttice applies Attribute Based Access Control on the fly, so compliance and security are automatic, not a queue.

Companies using dynamic governance systems reduce compliance related incidents by 25%.

Zero code for faster insights

Creating data products and generating insight without writing code is a game changer. Latttice puts the power of data in the hands of every user, not just the technical few, collapsing the gap between question and answer.

65% of organizations adopting no code or low code platforms have reduced their reliance on IT teams.

, Harvard Business Review, 2021

Cost efficiency across the board

Reducing the complexity of data management reduces cost. Less engineering, less restructuring, less manual support, and the savings can be reinvested in what actually moves the business forward.

Companies adopting no code platforms cut operational costs by up to 25% while improving productivity by 30%.
