data.world launches Archie Chat: AI-powered assistant for enterprise data catalogs

New conversational AI assistant transforms how organizations discover, understand, and interact with their data assets

AUSTIN, Texas, March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- data.world, the enterprise data catalog for the modern data stack, today announced the public beta launch of Archie Chat, an AI-powered catalog assistant that revolutionizes how users interact with their enterprise data catalog. Archie Chat helps users find answers to their questions quickly through natural language conversation, driving catalog adoption and enhancing data discovery across organizations.

Archie Chat, the evolution of data.world's AI capabilities, combines the power of knowledge graph technology with modern language model architecture to create a more intuitive data discovery experience. The assistant enables users to interact conversationally with their data catalog, receive guided support with catalog management tasks, and quickly find precise information without specialized query knowledge.

"Organizations today are drowning in data but starving for insights," said Brett Hurt, CEO and Co-founder of data.world. "Archie Chat transforms how teams interact with their data catalog, making knowledge discovery as simple as having a conversation."

Unlike generic AI tools, Archie Chat is built specifically for enterprise data environments, ensuring security, accuracy, and contextual relevance. Key features include:

• Self-hosted language model technology that ensures sensitive data remains under customer control
• Transparent "thought process" documentation that shows users exactly where information is sourced
• Multi-turn conversations allowing users to refine and follow up on queries naturally
• Cross-platform integration with Slack, browser interfaces, and a public API, meeting users where they work
• Enterprise-grade security with no data sharing to third parties for model training
• Built on data.world's proprietary AI Context Engine (AICE) for powerful agent orchestration

Archie Chat addresses critical challenges for data-driven organizations, including simplifying onboarding for new analysts, accelerating time-to-insight for business teams, and reducing the burden on data governance professionals.

"Data catalogs fail when people don't use them. Archie Chat changes that. It makes interacting with your data as easy as having a conversation, which means more people get the answers they need, faster. That's what drives real adoption," said Tim Gasper, Chief Product Officer at data.world.

Archie Chat enters public beta on March 25, 2025, with each data.world customer receiving 1,000 free knowledge tokens to experience the technology. Organizations can also access unlimited usage through the AI Context Engine Core Early Adopter Package.
