How it works
Ethyca automates enterprise-wide data governance, replacing fragmented manual processes with a unified trust infrastructure. It empowers every team to move faster, launch new products with confidence, and leverage AI safely.
1 | Structure all of your data
Fides is the open-source programming language and taxonomy engine for sensitive data. It defines data categories, usage purposes, and policy rules in code, creating a shared governance framework across legal, product, and engineering.
2 | Know all of your data
Helios is the intelligence layer that maps your data using the structure defined by Fides. It continuously discovers, classifies, and traces data across systems so you know what data you have and where it lives.
3 | Know what you can use your data for
Janus is the permissions layer that governs how data can be used, logged in the Helios inventory and defined by Fides. It collects and enforces user consent, legal basis, and purpose restrictions, automatically propagating usage rules across systems.
4 | Modify data in response to a request
Lethe is the action layer for responding to data requests. Building on the structure from Fides, the inventory from Helios, and the user consent layer from Janus, Lethe automates deletion, access, and modification requests across your stack.
5 | Build policies for your data
Astralis is the enforcement layer for data usage, that embeds policy enforcement into systems. It ensures that every data application—from analytics to AI—is responsible, compliant by default, and traceable across teams and environments.
WHAT TO EXPECT WITH ETHYCA
Control data use at scale
and unlock AI for growth
Achieve clarity
One source of truth for data use.
No more policy buried in PDFs or lost in handoffs. Ethyca standardizes governance in code, giving legal, product, and engineering teams a shared foundation to understand and act on data—consistently, at scale.
Enable safe AI
Use only the data you should, confidently.
AI needs data, but not all data is cleared for use. Ethyca embeds consent, purpose, and policy checks into training and inference workflows, ensuring models only use data that meets regulatory, contractual, and ethical standards.
Accelerate velocity
Governance that grows with you.
Manual reviews slow down launches and drain team capacity. Ethyca automates privacy, rights, and usage enforcement across the stack—so your systems move faster, without accumulating compliance debt.
Earn trust
From checkbox to control layer.
Trust can’t be retrofitted. Ethyca embeds it into your infrastructure so every data decision, across every team, reflects the rules, preferences, and responsibilities that matter most.
