Foundational is a Data and AI Governance platform that analyzes source code, runtime, and data to provide full visibility and control across applications, databases, cloud, and on-prem environments. It addresses the visibility gaps left by traditional governance tools by capturing lineage from code, jobs, and transformations, not just data at rest. The platform includes products such as Cross-Platform Lineage, Impact Analysis, Data Contracts, Data Quality, AI Governance, and Foundational IQ — a conversational and agentic interface for governance tasks. Foundational helps governance teams proactively manage data incidents, enforce compliance, optimize costs, and support reliable AI workflows. It integrates with a wide range of data and AI tools including Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, and more.
