We’re proud to be at the forefront of helping data engineers and AI teams improve their models, control their cloud data lake costs, and unlock sensitive data sets for safe use in model training and LLM prompts.

Through Granica’s industry-leading data training platform, our customers can build better AI through better data. With Granica Crunch, users can shrink out-of-control data lake costs by up to 60% and speed analytical queries by up to 50% via novel compression and optimization, making training data growth affordable while accelerating AI and analytical value.
