Project detail

AI Data Catalog / Governance Demo

A data catalog product surface for discoverability, ownership, quality, lineage, and approved AI use cases.

Case study

Business Problem and Product Vision

Business Problem

Enterprise AI programs stall when teams cannot quickly tell which datasets are trusted, who owns them, what restrictions apply, and whether a proposed model, copilot, or retrieval workflow is approved. A catalog that only stores metadata does not solve the adoption problem.

Product Vision

This case study turns catalog metadata into a governed product experience: searchable datasets, ownership, sensitivity, quality, lineage, and approved AI-use context in one interface for analytics, compliance, security, and product teams.

Interactive Dashboard

All confidential data is excluded. Portfolio demos use public data or fictional, portfolio-safe sample data to show KPI hierarchy, trust signals, filtering, and regulated-enterprise product workflows.

Fictional AI governance catalog

A product surface for finding trusted datasets, understanding ownership and sensitivity, and confirming which AI uses have been reviewed before a team builds models or retrieval workflows.

Technical Stack

Data model, pipeline, and implementation

The model treats datasets as governed products with domain, owner, sensitivity, quality, lineage, and approved AI-use attributes. Search and scoring make the catalog useful for daily discovery while retaining the controls required for regulated enterprise AI.

Data Product Decisions

Governance, UX, and architecture choices

Make ownership, sensitivity, and approved use visible in the same place as dataset search.
Use simple quality and lineage labels that business users can understand quickly and governance teams can defend.
Position catalog metadata as an adoption experience, not just a compliance inventory.

What This Demonstrates

What this demonstrates to hiring managers

This project shows how Ted connects governance, metadata, and AI enablement into a practical product interface for healthcare, insurance, banking, and enterprise data teams that need to move faster without losing control of risk.
