The accelerator connects to various data sources, drafts ontologies using AI, and enables expert review to create a standards-based knowledge graph for products, customers, policies, and rules. This ontology helps AI agents make consistent, explainable, and auditable decisions.

By reducing manual ontology development from months to days, it addresses challenges of fragmented data and conflicting schemas in organizations. Available under Apache 2.0 on GitHub, it leverages Amazon Neptune, OpenSearch Serverless, and Bedrock foundation models, with plans for managed AWS service integration.
