Trusted Data Foundation
The ground truth. Scientific literature, patents, funding, clinical trials, organisations, and researchers are continuously integrated, validated, and reconciled across more than 100 million data points. The decisive work at this layer is entity resolution. The same researcher appears in a publication record, a patent filing, and a grant award under different name forms, different affiliations, and different identifiers. Resolving those into a single entity is what converts separate datasets into a foundation, and it is why funding, output, and translation can be examined as one system rather than compared as three.What Antlect covers today
The entity types in the graph, and the regions covered in depth.
Descriptive Digital Twin
The structural layer. A continuously evolving representation of the innovation ecosystem: organisations, institutes, laboratories, researchers, capabilities, research infrastructure, intellectual property, and the relationships that connect them. The term descriptive is deliberate. The twin describes the ecosystem as it is and as it changes, rather than simulating what it might do. That restraint is what makes it admissible as evidence: every relationship it holds resolves to a record in the foundation beneath it. The twin becomes visible in Graph mode, where the entities behind an answer can be examined as a network.Semantic Ontology Layer
The layer that carries meaning. A policy analyst, a corporate technology scout, and a university researcher will describe one capability in three vocabularies, none of which is wrong. This layer reconciles the taxonomies, classifications, and domain ontologies arriving with the source data into a single conceptual model. Without it, an answer is limited by the questioner’s vocabulary. With it, the question reaches the evidence regardless of how that evidence was described.How the ontology works
Why reconciling vocabulary changes what an answer contains.
Decision Intelligence Terminal
The layer you work in, where evidence becomes a position. Discovery, knowledge management, AI-assisted analysis, and research briefs operate as one environment rather than as separate tools.From an open question to a grounded brief
How an open strategic question resolves into a structured research brief.
