Replicable Enterprise Level AI Usage for SME using GPT Stores
1. Data integration, governance & compliance

 

A) Data‑Ingestion Agent Emulates Palantir’s ontology‑driven integration by connecting to ERPs, IoT devices and databases to unify data and metadata. The Palantir ontology unifies data, logic and actions into a decision‑centric model.

I’ll give you 5 commercially proven “Data-Ingestion Agent” examples (each tied to a popular product/workflow), and I’ll cite sources showing they’re widely used and viable.

Below are 5 commercially proven, popular “Data-Ingestion Agent” product examples you can package as GPTs (each mirrors a widely adopted ingestion pattern, then adds ontology-style unification of data + metadata into “business objects” like Customer / Order / Asset / Invoice).

Example 1 — “ERP → Lakehouse Ingestion Agent” (Microsoft Fabric Data Factory style)

Target buyers: SMEs on Microsoft stack, finance/ops teams doing monthly close, BI teams.

What it connects to (typical):

  • ERP/DB sources (SQL databases, files, SaaS via built-in connectors)

  • Schedules ingestion + basic transforms

Ontology output (Palantir-like):

  • Canonical objects: Vendor, PO, Invoice, GL_Entry, Cost_Center

  • Enforces common keys + business definitions (e.g., “InvoiceStatus” derived consistently)

Why it’s commercially viable:

  • You’re “wrapping” a connector ecosystem that already exists and is broadly used in enterprise integration (Fabric Data Factory connectors). (Microsoft Learn)

What the GPT sells (paid value):

  • Auto-generates ingestion plan + mapping spec (“source fields → ontology fields”)

  • Produces ready-to-run pipeline config snippets + validation checklist

  • Maintains a “data contract” doc (fields, types, null rules, owners)

Entities: Microsoft, Microsoft Fabric

Example 2 — “SaaS/ERP Connector Fleet Agent” (Fivetran-style)

Target buyers: Companies drowning in SaaS (CRM, billing, HR, support) and needing a unified warehouse.

What it connects to (typical):

  • Salesforce / NetSuite / Workday / Zendesk / Stripe-like apps (via managed connectors)

  • Land data into Snowflake/BigQuery/Databricks/etc.

Ontology output (Palantir-like):

  • Canonical objects: Account, Subscription, Ticket, Employee, Payment

  • Normalizes IDs + timestamps + currencies; tags PII fields at ingest-time

Why it’s commercially viable:

  • “Many connectors, low ops” is already a mainstream buying behavior; Fivetran publicly emphasizes 500+ connectors (market demand signal). (fivetran.com)

What the GPT sells (paid value):

  • “Choose the right connectors” wizard + cost-estimate + rollout plan

  • Naming conventions + ontology mapping templates per SaaS domain

  • Drift alerts: “API field changed → update mapping + downstream contract”

Entities: Fivetran

Example 3 — “Files → Bronze/Silver Tables Agent” (Databricks Auto Loader style)

Target buyers: Data teams ingesting continuous file drops (CSV/JSON/Parquet) from vendors, apps, exports.

What it connects to (typical):

  • Cloud object storage folders (S3/ADLS/GCS)

  • Watches for new files and ingests incrementally

Ontology output (Palantir-like):

  • Canonical objects: Shipment, StockMove, SensorReading, ClickEvent

  • Auto-detect schema → map to ontology → version schema safely (“schema evolution” policy)

Why it’s commercially viable:

  • Incremental ingestion from object storage is a core enterprise workload; Databricks documents Auto Loader as an incremental/efficient way to process new files as they arrive. (docs.databricks.com)

What the GPT sells (paid value):

  • Generates an “ingestion contract” per folder (schema, partitioning, dedupe keys)

  • Produces a bronze→silver transformation recipe (standardize types, enforce constraints)

  • File-quality triage: bad rows quarantine + human-readable error report

Entities: Databricks

Example 4 — “Event-Driven Cloud Storage Loader Agent” (Snowflake Snowpipe style)

Target buyers: Teams wanting near-real-time availability of files landing in cloud storage (logs, transactions, partner feeds).

What it connects to (typical):

  • Cloud storage stages (S3/Azure/GCS) → loads into warehouse tables

  • Optional event notifications for automation

Ontology output (Palantir-like):

  • Canonical objects: Transaction, PolicyEvent, CaseUpdate, AuditLog

  • Adds ingest metadata: arrival time, source system, load batch ID, lineage tags

Why it’s commercially viable:

  • Snowflake positions Snowpipe as loading data “as soon as files are available” in micro-batches, and supports automated loads via cloud messaging. (docs.snowflake.com)

What the GPT sells (paid value):

  • Generates “table + pipe + load policy” blueprint (including retry/backfill strategy)

  • Mapping assistant: file columns → ontology objects + validations

  • Data freshness SLA dashboard spec (what “late” means, alert thresholds)

Entities: Snowflake

Example 5 — “IoT Telemetry Ingestion Agent” (AWS IoT Core + Firehose + Glue catalog style)

Target buyers: Ops/manufacturing/field-service teams collecting device telemetry at scale.

What it connects to (typical):

  • Devices publish via MQTT → routed into streaming pipelines → delivered to data lake/warehouse

  • Catalogs connection metadata/credentials for sources/targets

Ontology output (Palantir-like):

  • Canonical objects: Device, Asset, Location, TelemetryPoint, Alert

  • Enriches telemetry with reference data (asset registry, maintenance schedule)

Why it’s commercially viable:

  • AWS documents MQTT connectivity in AWS IoT Core. (AWS Documentation)

  • Amazon Data Firehose is positioned as a managed way to acquire/transform/deliver streams to destinations like S3/Redshift/OpenSearch. (Amazon Web Services, Inc.)

  • AWS Glue connections store access details for data stores and are reused across crawlers/jobs. (AWS Documentation)

What the GPT sells (paid value):

  • Generates topic taxonomy + ontology mapping (“topic → device → asset → metric”)

  • Produces routing rules + delivery stream design + retention plan

  • Quality rules for telemetry (outliers, missing intervals, device identity mismatches)

Entities: AWS IoT Core, Amazon Data Firehose, AWS Glue

Anchor back to Palantir’s “ontology = data + logic + action”

If you want these GPTs to feel Palantir-like, make each one output:

  1. Objects (business entities)

  2. Relationships (joins/keys/graph edges)

  3. Policies (what’s allowed + who owns which fields)

  4. Actions (refresh, backfill, quarantine, approve schema change)

This is directly aligned with how Palantir describes its Ontology as bringing together data, logic, and action in a decision-centric model. (Palantir Blog)

 

B) Semantic Search & Retrieval Performs cross‑system search using the unified schema; replicates Palantir’s semantic search and virtual tables for retrieving data without duplication.

Here are 5 commercially proven, popular “Semantic Search & Retrieval” examples you can emulate with specialized GPTs (cross-system search over a unified schema, plus “virtual-table-like” retrieval via indexes + metadata pointers rather than duplicating full datasets).

Commercial anchor: Elastic — Elastic supports semantic search (e.g., ELSER) and provides content connectors that sync third-party data into Elasticsearch. (Elastic)
How your GPT emulates it:

  • Builds unified schema + synonym/alias dictionaries (“client” = “customer” = “account”).

  • Generates ingestion-to-index pipelines (fields, analyzers, embeddings/sparse vectors).

  • Implements “virtual table” style results by storing searchable replicas/index only, while linking back to the authoritative source record.

5) Databricks “Mosaic AI Vector Search over Delta Tables” Agent (lakehouse-native retrieval)

Commercial anchor: Databricks — Mosaic AI Vector Search creates an index from a Delta table, includes metadata, can sync with table updates, and is queryable via API. (docs.databricks.com)
How your GPT emulates it:

  • Treats your unified ontology tables as the “source of truth” (Delta tables / curated tables).

  • Produces index specs per object type (partitioning, metadata filters, freshness rules).

  • Returns joined “virtual views” (e.g., Customer ↔ Orders ↔ Tickets) by retrieving IDs + metadata, then assembling views on-demand.

If you want, in the next step I can turn one of these into PPT-style slides (problem → architecture → data flow → “virtual table” UX → sample prompts → demo outputs).

 

C) Rule‑Based Enforcer Embeds business rules in data pipelines (e.g., revenue recognition rules, period‑end close) similar to Palantir’s built‑in business logic.

I’ll give 5 commercially proven, popular “Rule-Based Enforcer” examples (each tied to widely used platforms for data quality, workflow, or finance controls), then map how a GPT can emulate the rule engine + enforcement loop.

Here are 5 commercially proven, popular “Rule-Based Enforcer” examples you can emulate as GPTs—each maps cleanly to “business logic embedded in the pipeline” (validate → block/quarantine → log → remediate), which is the same logic + action spirit you’d associate with Palantir-style decision-centric enforcement.

1) Databricks “DLT Expectations Rule Enforcer”

What it enforces: Data quality & business constraints while data flows (e.g., “OrderDate must be within posting period”, “Amount ≥ 0”, “CustomerID not null”).

Commercial anchor: Oracle Revenue Management is designed to address ASC 606 / IFRS 15. (Oracle Docs) And Oracle describes revenue policies that drive automatic revenue recognition decisions by comparing transactions to policy definitions. (Oracle Docs)
How your GPT works:

  • Captures your revenue policy as structured rules (policy conditions, contingencies).

  • Generates rule test cases (edge cases: partial periods, cancellations, renewals).

  • Produces reconciliation checks: subledger ↔ revenue contract ↔ GL postings.

Outputs you’d sell:

  • Policy specification (human + machine readable)

  • Test suite (transactions that should pass/fail + expected accounting outcome)

  • Period-end “close gate” report (what’s blocked, why, and how to clear)

If you want the next step in “PPT-like text,” I can turn any one of the above into 6–8 slide blocks: Problem → Architecture → Rule Types → Enforcement Flow → Exception Handling → Audit/Lineage → Example Rules → Demo Prompt + Example Output.

5) Databricks Unity Catalog “Unified RBAC + ABAC + Row/Column Controls Checker”

What it enforces

  • A layered model: privileges/ownership (RBAC) plus ABAC policies using governed tags, and row filters + column masks for fine-grained data-level restrictions. (docs.databricks.com)

How your GPT emulates it

  • Inputs: workspace context, object privileges, governed tags, request (SELECT/EXPORT), and table-level masks/filters.

  • Decision: check workspace restriction → privilege grants → ABAC tag policy → row/column transformation.

  • Output: ALLOW/DENY, effective privileges, and the “final view” of data the user can access.

What you can sell

  • “Central policy authoring” pack: policy templates + governed-tag strategy + automated access-request responses (“approve/deny with justification”).

A practical GPT output format (works for all 5)

  • Decision: ALLOW / DENY

  • Matched rule: <policy_name>

  • Reason: 1–2 lines

  • Evidence: tags/labels/roles involved

  • Remediation: “request role X” / “apply tag Y” / “use masked view”

  • Audit log stub: JSON event (who/what/when/why)

If you want, I can write PPT-style slide text for this Access-Policy Checker (architecture, policy model, request/decision flow, example prompts + example ALLOW/DENY outputs, and an audit/compliance slide).

 

H) Audit & Compliance Reporter Generates audit logs and compliance reports similar to Palantir’s action constraints and audit logging.

I’ll give 5 commercially proven, popular “Audit & Compliance Reporter” examples you can emulate, then map each to a GPT-style reporter that outputs audit logs, evidence packs, and compliance narratives with citations to source events.

Here are 5 commercially proven, popular “Audit & Compliance Reporter” examples you can emulate as GPTs—each is a known, widely used pattern for audit logs + compliance evidence + report generation, similar in spirit to “action constraints + audit logging”.

1) Microsoft Purview Audit + Compliance Portal Reporter

What it does (commercial pattern)

  • Centralized auditing across Microsoft services, supporting investigations and compliance reporting (who did what, when, from where). (learn.microsoft.com)

Your GPT version

  • Inputs: event exports (M365 audit, DLP incidents, label changes), policy definitions, time range

  • Outputs:

    • Executive summary (incident counts, trends)

    • Evidence pack: “top events” + rule hits + affected assets + responsible owners

    • Auditor-ready appendix (event IDs, timestamps, actor, action, object, policy matched)

Why it sells

  • Most orgs already have audit data but struggle to turn it into a coherent, defensible report.

2) AWS CloudTrail + AWS Config Compliance Reporter

What it does (commercial pattern)

  • CloudTrail records API activity/events, while AWS Config records resource configurations and compliance against rules—together forming a standard audit foundation. (docs.aws.amazon.com, docs.aws.amazon.com)

Your GPT version

  • Inputs: CloudTrail logs, Config snapshots, IAM policy inventory, control framework (SOC 2 / ISO 27001 mapping)

  • Outputs:

    • “Change ledger” (infra changes by service/team)

    • Non-compliance register (rule, resource, drift evidence, remediation status)

    • Control mapping table (control → evidence sources → log excerpts/IDs)

Why it sells

  • Compliance frameworks want proof; these services provide raw proof, but reporting is labor-intensive.

3) Splunk Enterprise Security “SIEM Audit Evidence Reporter”

What it does (commercial pattern)

  • Splunk is widely used for collecting logs and producing dashboards/correlation searches for security monitoring and audit evidence. (splunk.com)

Your GPT version

  • Inputs: normalized event data (auth logs, access logs, DLP alerts), saved searches, incident tickets

  • Outputs:

    • “Audit narrative” (what happened, how detected, response steps, closure evidence)

    • KPI metrics (MTTD/MTTR, top alert types, repeat offenders)

    • Exhibit list: query names + time windows + notable event IDs

Why it sells

  • Auditors like repeatable evidence: “these searches + these dashboards + these event IDs”.

4) Datadog Cloud SIEM / Audit Trail Reporter

What it does (commercial pattern)

  • Datadog provides security monitoring (Cloud SIEM) and supports auditability by collecting and analyzing logs/events centrally. (docs.datadoghq.com)

Your GPT version

  • Inputs: logs + security signals + change events + incident timeline

  • Outputs:

    • Weekly/monthly compliance digest (signals, access anomalies, policy violations)

    • “Incident timeline” report for auditors (start → detection → containment → resolution)

    • Recommendation section (policy tune-ups, missing log sources)

Why it sells

  • Helps teams package ongoing monitoring into formal compliance artifacts (instead of “we monitor stuff”).

5) OneTrust “Privacy Compliance Reporting Agent” (DSAR + processing records)

What it does (commercial pattern)

  • OneTrust is widely used for privacy program management (records, assessments, DSAR workflows, evidence). (onetrust.com)

Your GPT version

  • Inputs: processing activities inventory, DSAR case logs, data retention policies, vendor DPIAs

  • Outputs:

    • GDPR/UK GDPR evidence pack: RoPA extracts, DSAR handling metrics, retention exceptions

    • “Data subject request report” (volume, SLA compliance, top request categories)

    • Vendor compliance appendix (who has access to what personal data + contract controls)

Why it sells

  • Privacy audits need structured documentation across many workstreams; GPT can assemble consistent evidence packs.

A practical “Audit & Compliance Reporter GPT” output template

  1. Scope (systems + dates + controls)

  2. Summary metrics (incidents, policy hits, top assets, trend vs prior period)

  3. Findings (each with severity + impacted data + owner + remediation status)

  4. Evidence exhibits (event IDs, timestamps, actor, action, object, policy matched)

  5. Control mapping (SOC2/ISO/GDPR control → evidence sources)

  6. Sign-off page (owners, reviewers, exceptions)

If you want, I can turn this into PPT-style slide text (8–12 slides) with: architecture diagram bullets, “log → evidence → report” flow, sample audit log schema, sample compliance report pages, and example prompts/results for a demo.

 

I) Reconciliation Ledger Agent Cross‑checks multiple reports for conflicting facts and logs discrepancies; this pairs with later factuality/consistency GPTs.

Here are 5 commercially proven, popular “Reconciliation Ledger” product patterns you can emulate as a Reconciliation Ledger Agent GPT: cross-check multiple sources → match rules → log breaks as reconciling items → workflow to resolve → audit trail.

1) BlackLine — Transaction Matching (high-volume matching + exceptions)

Why it fits: BlackLine explicitly positions Transaction Matching as ingesting data from multiple sources, automatically matching, and identifying exceptions. (bl-prod)
Your GPT emulation:

  • Build match rules (keys, tolerances, many-to-one) per reconciliation type (bank↔GL, invoice↔PO, subledger↔GL).

  • Output a Reconciliation Ledger table: match_group_id, sourceA_ids, sourceB_ids, diff_amount, reason_code, status, owner, evidence_links.

  • Auto-suggest likely causes for breaks (timing, FX, rounding, missing postings) and generate a remediation checklist.

2) Trintech — Cadency Match (rules + exception management)

Why it fits: Trintech’s Cadency Match highlights multiple match rules and strong exception management for high-volume matching and compliance outcomes. (Trintech)
Your GPT emulation:

  • Convert “finance policy” into match rules (priority order, fallback rules, tolerances).

  • Maintain an exceptions queue with SLA timers and escalation logic.

  • Generate period-end “unresolved breaks” report + root-cause distribution (for management sign-off).

3) Oracle — Oracle Cloud EPM Account Reconciliation (close governance + matching)

Why it fits: Oracle Cloud EPM Account Reconciliation is positioned to automate account reconciliations and transaction matching and improve statement accuracy. (Oracle)
Your GPT emulation:

  • Produce reconciliation “certification packs” per account: required evidence, preparer/reviewer, sign-off criteria.

  • Run cross-report checks (trial balance vs subledger vs management pack) and record every discrepancy as a ledger item.

  • Output audit-ready narratives: “what changed since last close, why, and who approved.”

4) CCH Tagetik (by Wolters Kluwer) — Account Reconciliation (templates + workflow + audit reports)

Why it fits: CCH Tagetik highlights matching transactions from disparate sources, reconciliation templates, workflow monitoring, and automatic audit reports—exactly the “ledger + evidence” pattern. (Wolters Kluwer)
Your GPT emulation:

  • Generate standardized reconciliation templates (risk rating, aging buckets, required attachments).

  • “Virtual ledger” approach: store only recon metadata (IDs, diffs, evidence pointers), not duplicate underlying datasets.

  • Produce an audit pack: exceptions list, resolution notes, and attachments index.

5) SmartStream — Smart Reconciliations (cross-system consistency + discrepancy detection)

Why it fits: SmartStream describes automating matching of transactions, positions, and cash balances across internal and external sources to quickly identify discrepancies and support compliance. (Smartstream)
Your GPT emulation:

  • Reconcile “same fact” across multiple reporting layers (custodian vs broker vs internal ledger; ops report vs finance report).

  • Create break clusters (same root cause) and propose resolution actions (data fix vs accounting adjustment vs investigation).

  • Produce daily/weekly reconciliation KPI dashboards: match rate, aged breaks, repeat exceptions.

What makes these “Reconciliation Ledger Agents” sell well in a GPT Store

  • They don’t just “find differences” — they create a structured discrepancy ledger with owners, evidence, workflow status, and audit outputs, which is where real operational value is.

  • They naturally pair with your later factuality/consistency GPTs: once a break is logged, those GPTs can help explain which source is most trustworthy and why.

If you want the next step, I can format one of these into PPT-style slide text (8–10 slides) including: reconciliation data model, matching rule hierarchy, exception workflow, audit pack structure, and example prompts + example ledger outputs.

 

J) Quality & Freshness Validator Flags stale or incomplete data and triggers refreshes. AWS Q Business emphasises indexing fresh content and scalable connectors.

Here are 5 commercially established “Quality & Freshness Validator” patterns you can emulate as GPTs (each = detect stale/incomplete data → raise an incident → trigger refresh/backfill → log evidence).

1) “Source Freshness SLA Gate”

Commercial pattern: dbt lets you define freshness SLAs (warn/error thresholds) for source tables and view freshness status, and it supports running dbt source freshness checks.
Your GPT emulation:

  • Generates a freshness contract per source (timestamp column, SLA, timezone, exclusions).

  • Emits a PASS/WARN/FAIL decision and a “why stale” explanation (late upstream job, missing partition, stopped connector).

  • Trigger actions: “rerun ingestion job X”, “backfill partition Y”, “pause downstream model runs until fresh”.

2) “Freshness Monitors + Threshold Rules”

Commercial pattern: Monte Carlo provides freshness monitors (e.g., time since last update / time since last row-count change) and freshness rules for expected update frequency.
Your GPT emulation:

  • Builds monitors for each ontology object/table (Orders, Payments, Tickets) with expected cadence.

  • Correlates freshness failures with upstream dependencies (e.g., ingestion job didn’t run, source API rate-limited).

  • Trigger actions: open an incident, notify owner, and generate a “restart plan” (rerun job, reprocess window, verify counts).

3) “SodaCL Freshness + Completeness Checks”

Commercial pattern: SodaCL supports freshness checks based on the age of the most recently added row in a table (great for “is this dataset updated?”).
Your GPT emulation:

  • Auto-writes SodaCL checks for: freshness, row-count thresholds, null-rate limits, schema drift.

  • Produces a human-readable incident summary (what failed, where, impact, suspected cause).

  • Trigger actions: “run connector resync”, “run pipeline with backfill dates”, “quarantine downstream publish”.

4) “Pipeline Reliability: Freshness + Volume”

Commercial pattern: Bigeye frames Freshness and Volume as pipeline reliability metrics—confidence that data arrives on time and in expected amounts.
Your GPT emulation:

  • For each dataset: define expected arrival times + expected volume bands (weekday/seasonality aware).

  • Detects “fresh but incomplete” (updated, but volume missing) vs “late” vs “stuck”.

  • Trigger actions: automatically request a re-run, generate a reconciliation checklist, and record a break item for audit.

5) “Search Index Freshness Validator” (Amazon Q Business connector sync)

Commercial pattern: Amazon Q Business connectors can be scheduled to automatically sync the index so users search “the most up-to-date content.”
Your GPT emulation:

  • Tracks connector sync cadence per source (SharePoint, Confluence, S3, etc.) and flags “index staleness”.

  • Validates coverage: “expected repositories indexed?” “ACL/permissions applied correctly?” “new spaces/sites included?”

  • Trigger actions: force a sync, escalate auth failures, and generate a “freshness certificate” for the knowledge index.

A simple output schema your “Quality & Freshness Validator GPT” should always emit

  • Status: PASS / WARN / FAIL

  • Asset: ontology object + source pointer (system/table/index)

  • Freshness metric: last_update_ts, age, expected cadence

  • Completeness metric: row-count delta / missing partitions / missing keys

  • Likely cause: ranked hypotheses

  • Action plan: refresh/backfill steps + owner + SLA

  • Audit log stub: event record (who/when/what/decision)

If you want, I can turn this into PPT-style slide text (8–10 slides) with: monitoring architecture, check types, incident workflow, refresh automation, and example prompts + example outputs.

 

K) Data Catalog Manager Creates a unified catalog of sources and schemas and exposes them via an API, mirroring the Purview/Fabric unified catalog.

Here are 5 commercially viable, popular “Data Catalog Manager” examples you can emulate as a GPT Store Data Catalog Manager (unified inventory of sources + schemas + governance metadata, exposed via an API).

1) Microsoft Purview Data Map + Unified Catalog pattern

Why it’s proven: Purview’s Data Map is built around scanning/ingestion of sources into a governed catalog, and it exposes Data Map REST APIs for discovery, entities, glossary, lineage, etc. (Microsoft Learn)
What your GPT emulates:

  • Connectors/scans → ingest schemas + basic metadata (owners, classifications, collections)

  • “Business overlay” on top of technical assets (glossary terms, descriptions, steward assignments)

  • Unified search + browse experience over everything

API surface your GPT should expose:

  • POST /catalog/search (keywords, filters: domain, sensitivity, owner)

  • GET /assets/{id} (schema, tags, glossary, upstream/downstream pointers)

  • POST /assets (register new assets / manual entries) (Azure Docs)

2) Databricks Unity Catalog “Central catalog for data & AI assets” pattern

Why it’s proven: Unity Catalog is positioned as a unified governance solution / centralized data catalog, with securable objects (catalog/schema/table/view) and centralized permissions. (Databricks Documentation)
What your GPT emulates:

  • A single namespace for assets: catalog.schema.table (+ views, volumes, etc.)

  • Automated registration from pipelines + consistent naming rules

  • Catalog entries enriched with owners, usage notes, quality/freshness pointers

API surface your GPT should expose:

  • GET /schemas?source=...

  • GET /tables/{full_name} (columns, types, last-updated, policies)

  • GET /impact?asset=... (downstream consumers—BI models, reports, jobs)

3) AWS Glue Data Catalog “Central metadata repository” pattern

Why it’s proven: AWS describes Glue Data Catalog as a centralized repository storing metadata (location, schema, etc.) acting as an index to datasets. (AWS Documentation)
What your GPT emulates:

  • Crawler-like ingestion of schemas from data stores

  • A consistent catalog model: database → tables → columns with operational metadata

  • Simple governance hooks: tags/classification + owner + retention

API surface your GPT should expose:

  • POST /catalog/register (source + schema + storage pointer)

  • GET /catalog/databases / GET /catalog/tables?db=...

  • GET /catalog/table/{db}/{table} (schema + partitioning + pointers)

4) Google Dataplex Universal Catalog “Data-to-AI governance catalog” pattern

Why it’s proven: Google positions Dataplex Universal Catalog as managing/governing data artifacts across lakes/warehouses/databases and supporting profiling, quality, lineage, classification, domains, etc. (Google Cloud)
What your GPT emulates:

  • Domain-based organization (Finance, HR, Ops) + “data product” style packaging

  • Profiles/quality summaries attached to catalog assets

  • Policy-ready metadata output (classification, sensitivity, provenance pointers)

API surface your GPT should expose:

  • GET /domains + GET /domains/{id}/assets

  • GET /assets/{id}/profile (quality/freshness summary)

  • GET /assets/{id}/lineage (graph edges to upstream/downstream)

5) Collibra Data Catalog “Enterprise inventory + open catalog API” pattern

Why it’s proven: Collibra markets a centralized inventory / visibility across sources, and provides a Catalog REST API to connect Catalog to sources not natively supported. (collibra.com)
What your GPT emulates:

  • Unified inventory with enrichment (descriptions, owners, glossary alignment)

  • Connector “adapters” (even if a source is custom, you can still register metadata)

  • Operational workflows: stewardship queues (“these assets need review”)

API surface your GPT should expose:

  • POST /connectors/custom/register (bulk register assets + schemas)

  • PATCH /assets/{id} (update description/owner/tags)

  • GET /catalog/export (snapshot for auditors / BI tools)

What makes a “Data Catalog Manager GPT” actually valuable (and sellable)

To feel like Purview/Fabric-style unified catalog, your GPT should always produce:

  • A canonical asset model (source → dataset/table → column → glossary term)

  • A searchable index (with filters: domain, sensitivity, owner, last-updated)

  • A write-back mechanism (owners, descriptions, tags, approvals)

  • An API contract (so other GPTs—lineage, policy checker, audit reporter—can query the catalog consistently)

If you want, I can turn this into PPT-style slide text (8–10 slides) including: catalog data model, connector ingestion flow, API endpoints, governance workflow, and example “catalog entry” outputs.
