Deal rationale
Chord and Zenlytic aimed to solve the same problem. Both worked to make AI reliable on company data. Zenlytic brought technology that works across industries on existing data warehouses.
Enterprise expansion

What customers get
Chord gives teams and agents a shared, governed understanding of the business. It keeps metrics, definitions, and financial goals current. Companies retain control of their data and can use different AI models.
