Govern every byte.
Then hand AI only what it should see.

Govnium Continuum governs your unstructured and structured data in place — Files, Mail, IM, endpoints, databases and SaaS — indexes once, then activates a precise, policy-filtered slice to GenAI through governed API feeds.

Govern applies policy to structured and unstructured alike; Nexus blends them; and each Feed is an API-enabled endpoint — served to GenAI or any downstream tech that needs governed data. Structured is classified field-by-field in Lattice first.

One fabric, two planes

Structured and unstructured — governed together

Most platforms see only documents. Govnium governs both planes, keeps them cleanly separate inside every module, and fuses them where it matters — at the entity.

Unstructured

Files, Mail (Archive + Journal), IM and endpoint (GovBrowser) web & file activity — crawled in place, deduped, classified for PII, secrets, dark-data and risk.

Structured

Databases, warehouses and business apps arrive as governed JSON envelopes and are classified field-by-field — the structured analog of document governance.

Blend into Feeds

Both planes converge into a governed Feed — a policy-filtered slice of structured records and unstructured content that is served to GenAI as a single API endpoint.

Inside the platform

Structured, unstructured — and the Feed that blends them

The same governance runs across both planes, then publishes a policy-filtered slice as a Feed. Every Feed is a governed API endpoint your downstream AI calls.

The platform

Everything from crawl to GenAI

A connected set of modules over one governed fabric.

Global Search

Keyword + semantic search across every store, with field filters and grounded, cited Ask.

AI Governance new

Prompts, LLM responses and outputs governed as a first-class source — with synthetic-data identification across the estate.

Feed Studio

Slice the estate into a governed Feed — search, tag, sub-feed, schedule, and serve to GenAI via a governed API endpoint.

Prism

Thread analytics for mail/IM and chunk + file-level analytics, content variation and PII distribution.

Watchtower

Lexicon-policy hits become a review queue — Unstructured, Structured, Endpoint and AI lanes, all audited.

Risk Analysis

Consolidated risk, retention, defensible disposition, review queue and audit — by source, including endpoints and AI.

Governed endpoints

GovBrowser on each endpoint captures web activity & files (MFT) in place, applies policy, and routes matches into the estate.

Governed APIs

Each feed is a scoped GenAI endpoint with toggleable resources; egress governance filters and redacts on the way out.

Forge new

An IDE and console to build governed apps on your data — programs are governed and publish governed API and MCP endpoints. App development is free.

The Grain · the future

Give the note its structure

Documents, emails, IMs and calls are the same note wearing different envelopes. We take the envelope off and put one governed, content-addressed unit of meaning — the Grain — beneath all of them. Format becomes a view; meaning, provenance and governance become the substance.

The Grain

the note itself — governed & machine-native. Four formats collapse into one governed primitive, then project back into stream, entity graph, or the reconstructed original.

THE ATOM — A GOVERNED UNIT OF MEANING

id = content hash. The same passage in an email, a chat and a doc is one canonical Grain with provenance edges — process once, below the document level. PII, retention and legal-hold live on the Grain itself.

ONE STORE — THREE VIEWS

Grains sit in a governed temporal-relational graph. By time → the stream. By entity → the footprint (Entity 360). By container → the original, rebuilt on demand. The format is never the type.

COMMUNICATE BY REFERENCE

A Grain is created once; everyone else gets a governed reference — revocable and expiring. One source of truth; recall and expiry that actually work; governance travels with the reference (redact-on-egress). Reply, forward and CC are just Grain-graphs with different edges.

Ring 1 · Native

Both parties on Govnium — full Grain exchange with governance, revocation and versions. Value with zero external adoption.

Ring 2 · Gateway

An un-adopted recipient gets a snapshot + secure link via plain email. Nobody outside has to adopt anything — email is the universal fallback.

Ring 3 · Federation

Org-to-org Grain exchange between enterprises that both run Govnium — governed, sovereign, residency honored. The network upside.

Working prototype · live

One stream of Grains — note the “was email / chat / doc / call” badge. Click any Grain to see the same unit rendered as email, chat, doc or entity, with its provenance, governance-at-the-atom, revocation and delivery ring.

Backward · today

Dissolve the world’s existing notes into Grains — every document, email, IM and call in formats becomes governed. The past becomes one fabric.

Inward · next

New notes are born as Grains inside Gov Suite — structured, governed and machine-native from the first keystroke, never a “file.”

Outward · the far arc

A governed communication network — the Grain as an open primitive others implement. “SMTP for meaning.”

In 1970, Codd’s table gave structured data its abstraction. The note — humanity’s oldest data structure — finally gets its own: governed, content-addressed, AI-native and exchanged by reference. That is the next step of Govnium’s Element of Governance.

End to end

From raw data to a governed GenAI feed

Connect & crawl

Connect structured sources in the Interconnect and crawl Files/Mail/IM/endpoints in place. Each structured row becomes a governed JSON envelope.

Govern & classify

Lattice classifies every field; documents are scored for PII, secrets, dark-data, risk and AI/synthetic provenance, and tagged by lexicon policies.

Fuse in Nexus

Resolve an entity across both planes into one footprint, or create an augmentation plane with inferences and a GenAI endpoint.

Slice into a Feed

Feed Studio mints a blended Feed carrying documents and structured records — analyze in Prism, branch sub-feeds, schedule refreshes.

Activate to GenAI

Expose only the resources you choose; downstream RAG / fine-tuning reads the governed slice — PII redacted, legal-hold excluded, every call audited.

Democratization of governance

Build governed apps on your data — no data team required

Govnium Forge is an IDE and console where anyone builds and runs programs over the governed estate. The programs are governed by the platform — they read only the governed slice, PII is redacted, legal-hold is excluded, and every run is audited. Forge has two modes — Recipe (compose governed steps) and Code (write functions against a governed gov API). Each app you save publishes a governed API endpoint and MCP tool, and building on Govnium is free.

Forge — IDE + console

Compose a program, run it, and see governed output in the console — no traditional data team.

Governed by default

Apps can only read the governed slice — PII redacted, legal-hold excluded, every run audited.

Every app is an endpoint

Each saved app publishes a governed API endpoint and MCP tool for safe downstream AI.

Build

Compose governed steps in Recipe mode, or write functions against the governed gov API in Code mode — app development is free.

Govern

Programs read only the governed slice — PII redacted, legal-hold excluded, every run audited.

Publish

Save and the app publishes a governed API endpoint and MCP tool — free to build, governed to ship, safe for downstream AI.

Govnium Foundation · democratizing governance

Pay only for the intelligence you pull out of your data

Foundation is our mission to democratize governance. Gartner and IDC estimate 80–90% of enterprise data is unstructured, and governing all of it the old way is prohibitively expensive — so most of it never gets governed at all. Govnium removes the cost barrier: discovery, ingestion and governance are all free, so cost stops being the reason 80–90% of enterprise data stays ungoverned. You pay only for the intelligence you pull out of it.

Free to discover & ingest

Crawl, dedup and classify the whole estate — free, no per-GB meter. You have the right to discover, ingest and govern all of it.

Pay only to enable

Charges apply only when you activate data — search, tag, export, analyze, or serve it to AI. Holding it costs nothing.

An effectively free platform

The platform is effectively free — just a minimal enterprise-support subscription. The more you enable, the lower the unit rate.

Discover → Ingest → Govern — all free · Enable = pay · you pay only for the intelligence you pull out of it
