You need to deliver trusted, AI-ready data faster to achieve better AI outcomes. But your team is already stretched thin with defining and classifying data, developing business glossaries for necessary data context, and managing the growing volume of data flowing through your organization. Manual processes are slowing everything down while enterprise AI initiatives are accelerating around you.
Quest erwin Data Intelligence 15.2 changes that. This release delivers three breakthrough capabilities, including AI-powered data stewardship, AI-powered search, and enhanced unstructured data governance, all designed to slash stewardship time, extend governance coverage, and speed your path to trusted AI outcomes that drive measurable business value.
Deliver well-classified data catalogs 10x faster and speed business glossary development by 75%
Your data stewards spend countless hours manually defining and classifying data and developing supporting business glossaries to provide the needed data visibility and understanding for sound data use. But unclassified tables and lacking business definitions can cause business confusion, create compliance risk and, ultimately, slow and threaten the success of your AI initiatives.
erwin Data Intelligence 15.2 solves these challenges with erwinAI, a GenAI data stewardship assistant. Data stewards can use erwinAI to tackle multiple stewardship tasks simultaneously, onboarding and classifying new data sources within the catalog 10x faster and speeding business glossary term development by 75%.
Use erwinAI to:
- Identify gaps instantly. Ask erwinAI for any items within your data catalog or business glossary that still need to be defined or classified. erwinAI delivers your “to-do” list in seconds.
- Auto-suggest at scale. Use erwinAI to propose new definitions and descriptions, data classifications, and even organizational tags across all items in your list simultaneously.
- Review and approve with flexibility. Gain more control with erwinAI. Approve all suggestions at once, request alternatives, or dive into individual items and use inline AI capabilities to refine one-by-one.
- Be audit-ready with full transparency. erwinAI updates your catalog or glossary with timestamps, documenting AI-assisted work for future auditing.
erwinAI makes it practical for data stewards to deliver well-defined, well-classified data catalogs and more complete business glossaries in days rather than weeks to better support your business.
Find the right assets faster with natural language search
Your teams spend more time searching for, preparing, and governing your data than analyzing it. Quest erwin delivers new capabilities to change that. With the new AI-powered search capability in erwin Data Intelligence 15.2, users can find the right asset faster simply by asking erwin for what they’re looking for in their own words.

New AI-powered search in erwin Data Intelligence makes it faster and easier to find needed assets.
AI-powered natural language search in erwin Data Intelligence 15.2 transforms asset discovery by letting you:
- Search the way you think. Ask for what you need with natural language instead of navigating shopping filters.
- Combine multiple search criteria instantly. Now you can request results like “Show me the finance data products with gold trust scores assigned to David as data owner” in one query.
- Get immediate results. Access the right assets without multiple clicks or deep system knowledge.
- Free time for what matters. Spend less time searching and more time on analysis and business-building work.
Eliminate guesswork with faster discovery that enables teams to focus on delivering value.
Govern the unseen 90% of your data
Ninety percent of organizational data lives within unstructured data formats such as PDFs, Word documents, Excel files, and images. This data flows throughout your organization and, with the use of AI models and agents, creates added risk you cannot easily see or control. Traditional governance solutions have often ignored unstructured data, given its complexity to manage. But AI is increasing the need to bridge the governance gap between structured and unstructured data.

Unify governance of unstructured, semi-structured, and structured data with erwin Data Intelligence to reduce organizational risk and strengthen AI outcomes.
erwin Data Intelligence 15.2 enhances governance support for your unstructured data sources.
You gain:
- Automated metadata ingestion. Efficiently scan metadata from PDFs, Word docs, Excel, image files, and other unstructured data sources directly into your data catalog.
- Auto-classification for all data types. Use erwin to automate classification, applying the same classification processes to unstructured data as you do to structured sources.
- Granular AI control. Tag and control what gets shared with AI models based on data classification.
- A unified governance framework. Once cataloged, you’re in prime position to govern all data types within one platform for consistent oversight.
With erwin, you get greater visibility into and control of your entire data landscape.
