Collibra is an enterprise data governance and intelligence platform with particular strength in regulated industries — financial services, healthcare, and government — where data governance is not optional but regulatory mandatory. Collibra's focus on policy, compliance, and data stewardship workflows distinguishes it from more agile modern catalogs.
Data catalog with AI enrichment provides the core discoverability layer — AI automatically classifies data assets, suggests tags, and generates descriptions, while human data stewards review and approve the metadata. The human-in-the-loop approach maintains governance accountability that fully automated cataloging cannot provide.
Policy management enables defining and enforcing data governance policies — data retention rules, privacy classifications, access controls, consent management — with workflow approval for policy changes and automated policy enforcement at the data layer.
Data lineage provides the complete audit trail regulators require — showing exactly where sensitive data (PII, financial data, health data) originated, how it was transformed, where it flows, and who accessed it. For GDPR data subject access requests, accurate lineage is legally required.
Business glossary standardises terminology across the organisation — defining what 'customer', 'revenue', and 'active' mean so all teams use consistent definitions. Governance of terminology is the foundation of consistent analytics.
Collibra AI runs as document analysis llm software built around text and data workflows. Users typically start with a prompt, upload, or connected data source, and the underlying model handles the heavy lifting before returning a result you can refine or export. It's available on web and api.
