Stardog

For 25 years, Stardog Co-Founder & CTO Evren Sirin has been working on the same problem: How do you give machines a shared understanding of the business? Long before LLMs and AI agents, the answer was semantics, ontologies, and context. Yet most enterprise knowledge graph projects still fail. Not because the models are wrong, but because they never connect to the business. The uncomfortable truth: if your knowledge graph isn't connected to live data, it's documentation, not infrastructure. In this webinar, Evren will walk through why AI agents make this worse before it gets better, and what it actually takes to build the cognitive backbone that lets humans and agents reason from the same reality.

On Monday, Stardog unveiled a new brand identity and vision for trusted enterprise AI. The new look reflects a belief at the center of where AI is headed next: Artificial Intelligence Strengthened by Human Intelligence. As organizations move from AI experimentation to AI at scale, they need more than systems that can generate answers. Answering isolated questions is relatively easy. The real challenge is connecting knowledge across the business, breaking down data silos, and delivering the accuracy, governance, and guardrails required for AI to operate safely and effectively. Craig Harper, CEO of Stardog, shared: "For years, Stardog has helped organizations create a shared understanding of their business through semantic technologies, knowledge graphs, and AI-ready data foundations. As enterprises move from AI experimentation to AI at scale, trust becomes the critical requirement. AI needs more than access to data. It needs context, meaning, and governance." Stardog provides the semantic foundation for the agentic enterprise, enabling humans and AI agents to work from a shared understanding of the business. Our new identity reflects the future we're building toward: AI that is more transparent, more accountable, and rooted in the knowledge of the people and organizations it serves.

Everyone is focused on scaling AI. Bigger models. More agents. Longer context windows. Our CPO Navin Sharma thinks they’re running the wrong race. The real challenge isn’t scaling artificial intelligence. It’s scaling intelligence itself, both human and artificial, together. In his latest piece, Navin writes about what the future looks like when humans and AI are actually built to work together rather than just alongside each other.

Most enterprises have AI. Few have data AI can actually use. That’s the gap Stardog CEO, Craig Harper has been seeing across industries. And that’s why it’s the subject of his latest piece. The challenge isn’t access to models. It’s that enterprise data was never designed for AI. Drawing on three decades of experience in enterprise software, including leadership roles at ServiceNow and BMC Software, Craig explains why the next phase of AI won't be won by organizations with models alone. It’ll be won by those who solve the knowledge problem.  Read the blog here: https://lnkd.in/gyH5bK8f #AIReadiness #knowledge #ontology #humanintelligence #Stardog

The future doesn't belong to artificial intelligence alone. It belongs to organizations that combine artificial intelligence with human intelligence. AI can generate answers. Humans provide context. AI can identify patterns. Humans understand what matters. At Stardog, we help enterprises connect those two worlds by giving AI the business understanding it needs to deliver trusted outcomes.

This morning, we shared a new brand identity for Stardog. This afternoon, it’s on a billboard in Times Square. Launching a new brand identity is significant. But what it represents matters more than how it looks. For more than 20 years, Stardog has held the belief that artificial intelligence is strongest when it is grounded in human intelligence. That is the future we’ve been building toward. Seeing that reflected one one of the world’s most visible stages is a proud moment. For our team. For our customers who bet on us early. And for anyone who believes that real intelligence – both human and artificial – is worth getting right. Artificial Intelligence Strengthened by Human Intelligence.  www.Stardog.com Craig Harper Evren Sirin Michael Grove Navin Sharma Yoav Persky Chris Scalia Sandy Terry Matt Lucas Peter Dunlap #TimesSquare #Data #AI #SemanticAI #HumanIntelligence #Stardog

Our dog grew up. Today Stardog introduced a new logo, and the change tells a story. The old logo was with us through the scrappy years, when the dog was playful and a little aggressive, exactly right for a younger company fighting to prove that knowledge graphs and trusted AI mattered. The new one is calmer and more confident. The kind of dog you trust to guard something important. That's not just a design decision. It's where we are. As the market grew up, so did we. The company that drew the first logo learned, matured, and earned its place right alongside the customers it serves. The enterprise data landscape changed in the meantime too. AI has moved out of experimentation and into the real work of the business, and that work needs more than a smart model on its own. It needs a system where agents and humans work together from a shared understanding of what the data actually means. Our new identity carries that belief: Artificial Intelligence Strengthened by Human Intelligence. New look, same commitment: to open technology, to trusted intelligence, to AI that's accurate, explainable, traceable, and grounded in reality. A little hard to let the old dog go. But this one's ready for the work ahead.

Allow us to reintroduce ourselves... A new logo. A new visual identity. And a new expression of the company we’ve become. This brand refresh reflects a more mature Stardog, built for the moment enterprise AI is entering now. Because AI has moved out of experimentation and into decisions that affect your teams, your customers, your operations, and your outcomes. That future requires more than artificial intelligence alone. It requires human intelligence. It requires context and understanding. Our new identity brings that belief forward: Artificial Intelligence Strengthened by Human Intelligence. While the look is new, the commitment is the same. To open technology. To trusted intelligence. To helping you build AI that is accurate, explainable, traceable, and grounded in reality. To the next chapter of Stardog. 🥂 www.Stardog.com #Data #AI #Trust #HumanIntelligence #Stardog

AI agents need more than data access. They need a shared understanding of enterprise meaning. At the Databricks Data + AI Summit, we’ll be showing how Stardog brings an ontology-powered Semantic AI Platform to the lakehouse by integrating with Delta Lake and Unity Catalog. With Stardog, organizations can: - Extend Unity Catalog with business semantics, not just metadata - Connect enterprise data without locking it into another walled garden - Ground AI agents in governed, explainable knowledge instead of black-box outputs - Build reusable enterprise context that works across teams, tools, and models - Move faster from GenAI pilots to production-ready AI systems If you’re attending DAIS, book a meeting to see Stardog in action: https://lnkd.in/g9C5JQA2 #DataAISummit #Databricks #EnterpriseAI #KnowledgeGraphs #Stardog
