ontonomos
An ontology describes your infrastructure.
Ontonomos governs it.
Ontonomos brings your data, decisions, and operations together in one governed model — so your organization, and the agents working inside it, act on the same truth at any scale.
In active development
Ontology — one source of truth
Objects, links, and actions — typed, versioned, queryable. The ontology is a living model of your organization: every application reads from it and every decision writes back to it, so the model and the operation never drift apart.
Agentic layer — humans and agents, same rules
Built for agents with humans in the loop. Anything a person can see or do through the ontology, an agent can do too — under the same permissions and the same audit trail. Where people stay in the loop is your call, declared as policy.
Data layer — bronze to gold, traceable
Connect any source — databases, files, streams, live systems. Curate data from raw bronze to golden truth through pipelines traceable end to end: every value can be walked back to the record it came from.
Workflows & Applications — operations in one place
Workflows that know the ontology, the data, and the systems they touch — and every application built on them, managed in a single place instead of a sprawl of tools.
Security & Governance — at the core, not bolted on
Fine-grained control over who may see, change, and execute — per object, per property, per action — propagating from source data to every application and agent built on top. Who did what is always a query away.
The word
Ontonomos is a coined Greek compound: ὄν / ὄντος — being, that which exists — and νόμος — law, order, governance. Together: “that which governs being.”
onto·logy
λόγος — word, account. “The account of being”: it describes what exists.
onto·nomos
νόμος — law, order. “The governor of being”: it governs what exists.
A new coinage in an old tradition — Greek built its words for stewardship the same way:
- οἰκονόμος (steward of the house) → economy
- ἀστρονόμος (orderer of the stars) → astronomy
- κυβερνήτης (helmsman) → Kubernetes
“Ontology” itself is a coinage too — Neo-Latin, 1606.
