Daana is a declarative data modeling engine. Were encoding decades of data architecture knowledge into tooling that makes it accessible, without months of upfront design work. Define what your business entities mean. Daana generates the transformations, the historization logic, the pipeline code. Your semantic definitions become the implementation. This matters because most data platforms are drowning in unmaintainable hand-written SQL. Pipelines break constantly. Business logic lives in several different places, each implementation slightly wrong. Documentation drifts from reality quickly. Daana encodes the knowledge that prevents this. The same shift happened with Infrastructure as Code and Kubernetes. Declare what you want, let proven patterns handle how. The data architecture community built incredible knowledge over decades. Dimensional modeling, semantic layers, ensemble techniques. This is our attempt to make sure the next generation can access it, without needing a decade of experience first. Built by data engineers for data engineers whod rather design systems than debug transformations.

Nodon is an AI-powered platform for early-stage building decisions. From simple geometry and a few inputs, we auto-calculate quantities and compare structures, materials, and systems across embodied CO₂ (A1–A5), operational energy (B6), and cost—side-by-side. Works without BIM, backed by EPD libraries and clear assumptions.
