> Kyvos is a semantic layer for AI and BI. It gives organizations a single, consistent, business-friendly view of their entire data estate. &#10;&#10;By standardizing how data is defined and understood, Kyvos eliminates metric drift across BI tools and ensures that LLMs and AI agents work with governed business semantics rather than raw tables. &#10;&#10;Kyvos also delivers lightning-fast analytics at massive scale and high concurrency — including granular multidimensional analysis on the cloud — without the sluggish query times and escalating cloud costs that typically come with it. &#10;&#10;What Kyvos Solves &#10;&#10;Organizations today operate across multiple data platforms, analytics tools, and AI interfaces. Without a unified semantic foundation, the same business question can return different answers depending on the tool, query logic, or dataset used.  &#10;&#10;And as data volumes grow into billions of rows, querying the full breadth and depth of an organization's data becomes slow and expensive — forcing teams to work with limited slices rather than the complete picture. &#10;&#10;Kyvos addresses both by creating a universal semantic layer across the data estate — standardizing how business data is defined and understood — while delivering high-performance analytics that remain fast and cost-efficient regardless of data scale and user concurrency. &#10;&#10;The result is “one view, one meaning, one truth” of enterprise data, while delivering fast, scalable analytics across LLMs, AI agents and BI tools.  &#10;&#10;Kyvos provides: &#10;&#10;Unified Semantic Foundation for AI and BI &#10;Consistent Metrics Across BI Tools &#10;High-Performance Analytics at Scale &#10;Multidimensional Analytics on the Cloud &#10;Cloud Cost Efficiency

### "Kyvos review" — 4.0/5

> **Keremet** | *11 September 2023* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: UI is very friendly and very intuitive. Colors and design are attractive and in most cases impressive in a good way. As a PO i like the monitoring features where I can check user activity along with details like which attributes are being used/which are not. It creates a transparent view and gives an opportunity to improve resource consumption, build approach etc
> 
> **Cons**: Isolation between the cubes. I think this is the most painful part for me as of now. I d like to build a holistic view between datasets so that users can do investigations intuitively.
> 
> Very positive.  I like the team and support Kyvos provides as a vendor. I think that the strongest part of it. I feel being heard and always can rely on vendor services. Also I like the user friendly approach where end users feel some freedom with their actions and can explore the data they way they want without dependency on dev team.

> 
> **Cons**: There’s a lot to explore, so it takes time to learn everything&#10;While Kyvos works extremely well, but writing MDX queries requires some expertise. This means we need someone with that skill set and this slows us down a little.
> 
> Kyvos lets us analyze millions of records in seconds without external dependencies. It integrates well with Power BI, Tableau, Excel and XL-Cubed, so we don’t need to learn any new tools.
