data catalog
in 5 minutes
Organize, document and search your company's data assets in one centralized catalog. No consultants. No complex setup. Start for free.
Everything a data catalog should be. Nothing it shouldn't.
No learning curve
If your team can use a spreadsheet, they can use Metaustral. Clean, focused, no manual required.
Value in minutes
Sign up and document your first asset in under a minute. No infrastructure, no setup project.
Starts free
A generous free plan, and paid tiers from $29.99/mo — a fraction of what enterprise catalogs charge.
We build what you ask
Real humans on the other end. Tell us what you need — your requests shape the roadmap.
How it works
From raw data to documented catalog, in three steps.
Create your account
30 seconds, no credit card. Your workspace is ready instantly.
Add your first asset
Type in a table, dashboard or KPI and describe it. No database connection required to get started.
Share with your team
A searchable catalog everyone can use — with owners, tags and a quality score.
Built by data people, for data people
The context behind every data asset
Everything your team needs to stop losing data context — without the enterprise-tool complexity.
Automatic discovery
Connect your database and automatically detect tables, views and schemas.
ERD & lineage
Auto-generated entity-relationship diagrams and data flow, so you see how everything connects.
Business Glossaries
Define shared terms and definitions and link them directly to your catalog assets.
Quality score
Every asset gets a 0–100 completeness score so you know exactly what needs attention.
Multi-user
Admin, editor and viewer roles so each team accesses only what they need.
Secure & isolated
Each company only accesses its own data. Encrypted at rest.
All connect with live auto-discovery. Integrations constantly growing.
Technical assets and business knowledge in one place
Metaustral catalogs your tables, dashboards, reports, KPIs, views, and datasets, while Playbooks document the business processes, rules, and context that connect them.
The catalog that grows with your needs
Big vendors take your feature request and file it away. We don't. Tell us what you need — every request is heard and evaluated.
