summary

Alation’s catalog feeds an analytics store to compute a Data Catalog Value Index that converts searches, clicks, curation and executed queries into dollar savings; baseline reports show examples like $1.8M from comprehension and customers reporting ~$5M/year savings from reduced time to find and use data. The product logs every search and whether users click (the search-click gap), lets non‑technical users run curated SQL, tracks lineage and usage across Snowflake and Teradata, and surfaces gaps to prioritize curation.
