Enterprises talk a lot about being “data-driven,” but in practice, many are still drowning in silos and bottlenecks. Precisely, a global leader in data integrity, wants to change that—and it just found a powerful ally in Opendatasoft, the French-based provider of enterprise data marketplaces.
The two companies have announced a strategic technology partnership to deliver an integrated data marketplace that puts trusted, AI-ready data directly into the hands of business users. The move aims to fix one of the most stubborn problems in enterprise data management: how to make datasets not just clean and governed, but also easy to find, share, and actually use.
The Data Bottleneck Problem
Despite years of investment in data platforms, organizations still face the same frustrating hurdles: datasets scattered across multiple systems, IT bottlenecks for access, and governance headaches that slow innovation. Business users often wait weeks for approved data, while AI initiatives stall because models can’t be trained on data they can’t trust.
That’s where the Precisely–Opendatasoft marketplace comes in. By combining Precisely’s Data Integrity Suite with Opendatasoft’s intuitive sharing platform, the marketplace promises a self-service hub where data is:
- Trusted and governed – aligned with compliance and audit requirements.
- Searchable and contextualized – enriched with metadata and context for faster discovery.
- Accessible and shareable – available across departments, partners, or even public channels if needed.
The idea is simple: let business users browse and consume data like they would apps in an app store, while IT and compliance teams rest easy knowing governance and quality are built in.
Why This Partnership Matters
The timing couldn’t be better. As AI adoption accelerates, the value of enterprise data comes down to trust and usability. “Our joint customers are already seeing the benefits of having all their data products in one place—secure, searchable, and ready to use,” said Franck Carassus, CSO and Co-Founder of Opendatasoft.
For Precisely, the partnership advances its mission to modernize data ecosystems for the AI era. “We help customers unify their data and technology landscapes through deep integrations with strategic partners,” said Chris Hall, CPO at Precisely. The list of partners already includes AWS, Microsoft, Snowflake, and Databricks—making Opendatasoft the latest addition to a growing network designed to strengthen cloud and AI strategies.
The Bigger Picture: Data Marketplaces as the Next Frontier
Data marketplaces aren’t new, but they’re rapidly becoming a strategic layer in enterprise data architectures. Rival platforms like Snowflake Marketplace and Databricks Marketplace have pushed the concept into the mainstream, and the Precisely–Opendatasoft alliance adds a governance-first angle to the mix.
For enterprises, the implications are clear: having a central, compliant, AI-ready data marketplace could be the difference between scaling AI initiatives across the business—or watching them wither under the weight of silos and compliance audits.
Bottom Line
The Precisely–Opendatasoft partnership highlights a growing trend: data integrity is no longer just about quality—it’s about usability. If data can’t be found, shared, and trusted at speed, it’s not really an asset. With this move, Precisely is betting that the future of AI and analytics will depend less on raw data horsepower and more on making data ready for humans and machines alike.
