Kyvos Semantic Layer
Kyvos is a semantic layer for AI and BI. It gives organizations a single, consistent, business-friendly view of their entire data estate. By standardizing how data is defined and understood, Kyvos eliminates metric drift across BI tools and ensures that LLMs and AI agents work with governed business semantics rather than raw tables. Kyvos also delivers lightning-fast analytics at massive scale and high concurrency — including granular multidimensional analysis on the cloud — without the sluggish query times and escalating cloud costs that typically come with it.
