    Define the language your enterprise thinks in

    Fluree ITM is the taxonomy and ontology workspace where business users, taxonomists, and domain experts create, govern, and publish the controlled vocabularies that power your knowledge graph, your AI agents, your content tagging, and your data classification.

    Why This Matters Now

    Your AI is only as smart as your vocabulary.

    Every system in your enterprise describes the world differently. Salesforce calls them "accounts," your ERP calls them "clients," billing calls them "customers." Nothing in your data stack knows they are the same entity.

    Fluree ITM creates a shared, governed language for your business — preserving each system’s vocabulary while building crosswalks across all of them, so any application finds what it needs, whatever terms it uses. The result: a semantic foundation that brings your knowledge graph, AI agents, and data classification to near-human precision.

    What ITM Does

    Create, govern, and publish your enterprise vocabulary.

    ITM is the workspace where business experts and taxonomists shape the meaning your knowledge graph and AI rely on.

    Create

    Build taxonomies, ontologies, and controlled vocabularies visually.

    Tree view, whiteboard mode, search-first bulk editing, multilingual labels, and rich semantic relationships make model creation practical for business experts — not just engineers.

    Govern

    Changes do not go live until they are reviewed, approved, and auditable.

    Maintenance workflows, candidate management, stable versus modified versions, lifecycle statuses, and complete audit trails keep the model trustworthy as it evolves.

    Publish

    Push governed vocabularies into the rest of the platform without rebuilding anything.

    Publish your semantic models to Fluree Core, guide extraction in CAM, drive classification in Sense, and expose your enterprise vocabularies through APIs and read-only portals.

    Capabilities

    Built for modern taxonomists.

    Built for taxonomists and domain experts, not just developers.

    Tree view for exploring hierarchies, whiteboard mode for visual concept-building, and search-first results for bulk edits. No SPARQL, no schema migration tickets — just a governed workspace where the people who know the language can shape it.

    Security & Deployment

    Enterprise-grade security. Flexible deployment.

    OIDC, OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, LDAP, workspace roles — and your choice of on-premises, cloud, or hosted deployment.

    Identity and access management

    Enterprise IAM support covers OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, SSO/SLO, LDAP and AD federation, and two-factor authentication. Roles can be assigned per workspace so readers, contributors, editors, and administrators all get the right level of access.

    Deployment

    On-premises

    Deploy in your environment with dedicated infrastructure, controlled access, and architecture designed for enterprise governance needs.

    Deployment

    Your cloud

    Run fully dockerized in AWS, Azure, or GCP with infrastructure control and enterprise IAM integration.

    Deployment

    Hosted

    Use a managed deployment model with dedicated environments and no shared tenant data paths.

    How It Compares

    ITM vs. spreadsheets, generic tools, and document workflows.

    ITM is purpose-built for enterprise vocabulary governance — not adapted from a project management tool or a spreadsheet.

    [ ITM in the Fluree platform ]

    ITM defines the shared language.

    Every other product in the Fluree stack — Sense, CAM, Core, Fluree AI — maps to the vocabularies governed in ITM. One source of meaning across the whole platform.

    • Fluree ITM

      defines the language.

    • Sense

      maps structured data into that model.

    • CAM

      extracts knowledge from unstructured content against the same vocabulary.

    • Core

      persists the resulting graph as governed enterprise truth.

    • Fluree AI

      turns that connected knowledge into grounded assistants, retrieval experiences, and agent workflows.

    Get Started

    Your AI accuracy starts here.

    The knowledge graph is only as good as the vocabulary it’s built on. ITM is where that vocabulary is created, governed, and published — the semantic foundation your entire AI and data stack depends on.
