Genie lets users ask questions in natural language—but only on data loaded into a curated workspace. Promethium removes this constraint, extending Genie’s reach across your full data estate and enriching every answer with business context.
Key Integration Benefits:
Genie is restricted to data inside Unity Catalog. Promethium enables federated access to live data from any source.
Promethium injects business logic, KPIs, and relationships into Genie’s prompts—ensuring consistent, explainable answers.
Promethium dynamically assembles SQL, joins, and logic to generate full Data Answers that Genie can present, summarize, or explore.
Through Model Context Protocol, Genie can call on Promethium’s reasoning, planning, and query agents—working together to improve accuracy and depth.
Promethium reduces the reliance on Genie-specific curation by enabling trusted answers across all enterprise data—regardless of whether it lives in a Genie workspace. That means fewer manual steps, broader coverage, and faster value.
