Atlan

Atlan is an enterprise metadata management platform that positions itself as the context layer between a company's data systems and its AI agents. It unifies lineage, business definitions, governance policies, and quality signals from 80+ connected systems into a single graph that analysts and agents query through SQL, APIs, and an MCP server. The product spans data cataloging, active data governance, AI governance, and a set of AI agents that auto-generate asset descriptions and business definitions for human review. Atlan was founded in 2019 by Prukalpa Sankar and Varun Banka, co-CEOs who previously built the data company SocialCops, out of which Atlan grew. Customers include General Motors, Workday, Nasdaq, Mastercard, Cisco, and Unilever. The company raised a $105M Series C in 2024 led by GIC and Meritech Capital at a $750M valuation, bringing total funding above $200M. Gartner and Forrester have named Atlan a leader across their metadata management and data governance evaluations. Legal entity: Atlan Pte. Ltd.
