Column Lineage For Data Engineers & Architects

Atlan auto-stitches column-level lineage across your stack so you can debug faster, design smarter, and trust every model, metric, and migration.

AI Lineage For ML Teams & AI Governance

Follow data, training sets, and models end-to-end for complete visibility into how your AI is trained, deployed, and making decisions.

Data Product & Domain Lineage For Business Teams

See how every metric and data product is built across domains so business teams understand context instantly.

Bring Your Own Lineage For Everything Else

Not everything in your stack comes with a native extractor — and that's fine. Atlan lets you import lineage via CSV, build it visually, publish it via API, or stream it through OpenLineage.

Workflow Intelligence

Lineage Context that Meets Humans & AI
Where They Work

Bring lineage into the tools, reviews, and automations your teams already use, so humans and AI agents get the right context exactly when they need it.

Quality Signals Impact Analysis Auto-Propagate Metadata AI Access

Quality Signals for Faster RCA

Atlan surfaces upstream errors and impacted assets directly in lineage so teams can pinpoint issues in minutes, not hours.

Proactive Impact Analysis in GitHub & GitLab

See the full downstream impact of dbt model changes inside your pull requests, giving every developer instant, context-rich code review.

Auto-Propagate Metadata Along Lineage

Tags, glossary terms, and descriptions automatically travel across lineage and sync bi-directionally with tools like Snowflake and Databricks.

AI Access via MCP

Give AI agents and automations direct access to lineage context through Atlan's MCP Server so they can work smarter, safer, and with full awareness.

"With Google DataPlex, lineage only showed part of the story. Our business operates across many systems and we needed complete, enterprise wide lineage. Atlan's platform was more intuitive, delivered on complex end-to-end lineage, and had a strong library of connectors. We also used OpenLineage for Spark jobs to tie operational lineage to our data platform."
