One application – multiple solutions

a.k.a. software is your Swiss army knife for information governance – enabling you to build the multiple solutions you need for data and information governance.

One multi-tasking tool that does it all.

a.k.a.® 3 software can manage multiple information governance schemes  within  a single application.

Our objective was to build a revolutionary product where users could create any metadata element, any entity, any relationship and combine these into any structure, to be deployed into any information system.

This makes a.k.a.® 3 significantly different to all other metadata, taxonomy, architecture and governance products currently on the market.
