01 / Existing investment
The foundation remains
Organizations have invested in cloud platforms, data warehouses, governance, catalogs, ERP, CRM, BI and analytics. Those investments remain important.

Solving the Data Plane
for Enterprise AI.
Trusted, governed data for better business decisions.
AI creates value when it can access the right data, with the right business context, governance and permissions, at the point of decision. The challenge is not access to AI. It is making enterprise data ready for AI to use.

Strategic overview
The executive challenge
The constraint has moved · 02
The enterprise has invested in data. Now AI needs to use it.
02 / New requirement
Trust at the point of use
AI needs the right meaning, context, governance, permissions and evidence when a decision needs to be made.
03 / Boardroom implication
The operating gap
The challenge is how trusted data moves from the enterprise estate into AI, agents and decisions.
The conclusion
That is the data plane problem for AI.
Visualize the data plane
Your technology remains. Trust becomes usable.
Latttice sits between existing enterprise data investments and every experience that needs trusted data.
Selected layer · 02
Context becomes operational
What it does
Latttice connects existing data, creates fit-for-purpose data products, applies active governance and publishes them for authorized use.
Operating responsibility
Business and data teams design together around the decision, with meaning, evidence, policy, permissions and lineage attached.
Governance · security · lineage · policy · context, spanning every authorized experience
The destination
Better business decisions
Context changes everything
Giving AI access to data is not the same as giving AI data it can trust.
01
What does this data mean?
02
Which definition should be trusted?
03
Where did it come from?
04
Who or what is allowed to use it?
05
What policies apply?
06
Is it appropriate for this decision?
AI needs data with business meaning, context, governance and evidence attached.
Governance has to travel
Governance cannot stop when the data leaves the platform.
As enterprise data moves into BI, applications, AI and autonomous agents, governance needs to remain active at the point of use.
Latttice enables governance to be applied when a data product is created and when it is consumed, including access, permissions and business context.
Govern once. Carry trust into every authorized experience.
Explore Active GovernanceAt creation
Meaning, ownership, policy and permissions attach to the product.
At consumption
Trust travels into BI, applications, AI and agents.
Build Once. Govern Once. From BI to AI.
The same governed data product can support people, dashboards, applications, AI and agents, without rebuilding the business context for every new experience.

Why this matters
The destination isn't more data. It isn't more AI. It's better decisions.
01
Faster decisions
Trusted data at the point of decision.
02
Lower risk
Governance and appropriate access carried into use.
03
Higher performance
Business teams can create the data products they need.
04
AI that delivers
AI receives trusted business context rather than disconnected data.
05
More from existing investment
Extend existing enterprise technology rather than rip and replace.
Modernize the operating model, not necessarily the entire estate.
A question for your leadership team
If your AI needed the information behind one of your organization's most important decisions right now, could you prove that the data was trusted, current, governed and appropriate for that decision?
If establishing that answer requires multiple systems, teams and days of work, the challenge isn't the AI model.
The boardroom conclusion
It's the data plane underneath it.
