Marmot

Discover any data asset in seconds. Then let your AI do the same.

The open-source context layer for your AI. Catalog your tables, topics, queues and APIs then expose real metadata to your AI agents.

What is Marmot?

Marmot is an open-source data catalog designed for teams who want powerful data discovery without enterprise complexity. Catalog every data asset, enrich it with the context that matters and make it accessible to your team and your AI tools.

Unlike traditional catalogs that require extensive infrastructure and configuration, Marmot ships as a single binary with an intuitive UI, making it easy to deploy and start cataloging in minutes.

Discover - One place for AI and engineers to find every table, topic, queue and API
Understand - Trace how data flows and what depends on what with lineage
Contextualize - Ownership, business definitions and custom fields that give AI the full picture
Share - Expose certified context through MCP, the API and the UI
