Curiosity and Dataiku
Projects for data teams, or tools for every team
Curiosity is a context layer teams build on; Dataiku is a platform for data science and AI projects.

Who each tool is for
Different problems, honestly stated
Curiosity
For industrial and regulated teams whose knowledge sits in engineering systems and structured records, where the answer depends on how those records connect, and where the deployment has to run on their own infrastructure.
Dataiku
A platform for data preparation, machine learning and generative AI projects, used by data teams in industry and pharma, deployable self-managed or in the cloud. Projects are built and governed by data teams.
How Curiosity compares
Where the boundary falls
Dataiku is built for the data team’s work. Curiosity gives engineers and support teams a connected, permissioned graph they can ask and build tools on themselves.
Records and documents, not only tables
Industrial knowledge lives in tickets, documents, email and engineering systems as much as in the warehouse. Curiosity connects them where they are.
Permissions from the source
Access is synced from each source system, down to the record, rather than modeled again in a second set of grants.
Tools for the people who do the work
Studio builds apps and agents for engineers and support teams, on top of the graph, without a data team in the loop for each one.
Side by side
