New Features

QuestAI

QuestAI is a centralized AI assistant hub that enables conversational access to enterprise data. It enables you to ask questions in natural language to discover assets, understand lineage, access glossary definitions, and perform stewardship tasks. If you are unsure which AI assistant to start with, the Universal Semantic Assistant intelligently routes queries across specialized assistants for catalog, lineage, glossary & ownership, marketplace, and stewardship, delivering accurate insights grounded in enterprise metadata.

QuestAI eliminates manual searches and documentation deep dives, making data governance accessible to every stakeholder, regardless of technical background.

Key capabilities:

• Specialized Domain Assistants

• Intelligent Routing via Universal Semantic Assistant

• AI-Powered Metadata Enrichment

• Governed AI adoption
