Data intelligence company Alation Inc. announced the launch of Alation Agent Builder, an artificial intelligence platform that gives enterprises the ability to deliver production-ready agents. It gives organizations the ability to build, manage and deploy metadata-aware, configurable AI agents for structured data that have dramatically higher levels of accuracy. Agent Builder seeks to solve a core challenge: Though structured data powers the financial and operational reporting behind critical business decisions, building AI agents that can reliably act on that data has proven difficult. With Alation Agent Builder, organizations can create AI agents that can act on structured data with greater accuracy. The agents are metadata-aware and deliver the accuracy, reliability and governance that structured data requires. Under the hood, the agents leverage the Alation Knowledge Layer, curated and governed data products that draw from the metadata in the Alation Agentic Data Intelligence Platform, to ensure every answer reflects the right business context. Users of Agent Builder can create agents using a no-code interface, complemented by prebuilt tools and supported integration into more than 100 data sources. The agents can also be embedded into external applications and workflows via Model Context Protocol or REST and are supported by built-in evaluation and monitoring tooling to ensure production reliability.
