Deterministic execution and a complete audit trail — so outputs survive governance, procurement, and review.

Features

 

Provenance produces a reviewer-ready evidence package: pipeline steps, parameters, lineage, intermediate artifacts, and structured warnings. Designed to be forwarded internally without you defending it live.

Re-run the same analysis later

Same inputs, same plan, same output. Deterministic by design.

Explain exactly how a number was produced

Every step, parameter, and data source is recorded and attributable.

Hand to audit / compliance without rewriting work

Export PDF, JSON, SQL, and plan graph. Designed to be forwarded, not explained.

From question to governed output in four steps.

Step 1

Intent parsing

  • Motifs only — constrained vocabulary
  • Natural language mapped to typed operations
  • Ambiguity resolved before planning begins

Step 2

Plan compilation

  • Only safe pipelines are possible
  • No freeform agent tool selection
  • Nothing is hidden or invented

Step 3

Transactional execution

  • Failures are contained and explained
  • Each step produces stored artifacts
  • Non-determinism flagged, not hidden

Step 4

Receipt export

  • Steps + parameters + artifacts + warnings
  • PDF, JSON, SQL, and plan graph
  • Reviewer-ready evidence package

Fast answers are common. Fast answers you can approve are rare.

 

Traditional BI

Trusted outputs. Slow to change.

AI assistants

Fast outputs. Hard to approve.

Provenance

Fast + you can hit forward without a meeting.

 

Examples \u2014 the same Receipt model works anywhere analytics needs review.

Energy

Regulatory reporting, internal assurance.

"Outliers vs peer baseline, last 30 days."

Queries, filters, and aggregation logic — all recorded.

Variance to plan, peer benchmarks, exception reporting — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

Retail

Forecast accuracy must be defensible.

"Which regions underperformed vs plan — and why?"

Data sources, thresholds, and comparison method — traceable.

Peer benchmarks, SLA derivations, exception reporting — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

Shipping & Logistics

SLA reporting needs traceable derivations.

"Show container dwell time by port, last 90 days."

Date ranges, grouping logic, and source tables — explicit.

SLA derivations, variance to plan, exception reporting — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

Manufacturing

Yield and quality reports face audit scrutiny.

"Yield rate by production line, week-over-week."

Calculation steps, filters, and intermediate outputs — saved.

Variance to plan, peer benchmarks, exception reporting — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

Finance

Board packs, SOX, internal audit trails.

"Break down revenue by segment and region for board review."

Every join, filter, and aggregation — exportable for audit.

Variance to plan, peer benchmarks, exception reporting — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

Pharma & Life Sciences

GxP-style expectations (traceability, reviewability).

"Batch deviations and contributing factors."

Full lineage from source tables to final output — reproducible.

Exception reporting, peer benchmarks, variance to plan — all with reviewer-ready receipt.

If not, Provenance doesn't ship it. Every output includes the evidence needed for sign-off — so review is a formality, not a debate.

 

Ambiguity resolved, never punished. One audit surface for every query type.

Deterministic execution path

Deterministic execution path

No free-form agent tool selection. A contract graph composes only valid pipelines.

Explicit constraint governance

Explicit constraint governance

Schema auto-discovered, filter values validated against real data, fabricated columns rejected at the grounding gate. Gaps filled from declared rules — never invented.

Transactional replanning

Transactional replanning

If validation fails, Provenance replans and reuses successful checkpoints.

Immutable artifact lineage

Immutable artifact lineage

Every step produces stored artifacts with handles, timestamps, parents.

Machine-readable warnings

Machine-readable warnings

Non-determinism and lossy operations are flagged in-machine, not hidden.

Schema-driven, not bespoke

Schema-driven, not bespoke

No domain logic. Tables, columns, types, relationships, and value distributions are discovered automatically. Behavior emerges from contracts + schema context.
