Cohesity Gaia

Overview

Cohesity Gaia is a conversational search and summarization solution designed to help you unlock insights from your enterprise data quickly and securely. Instead of running complex queries or manually combing through files, you can simply ask questions in natural language, and Gaia will search across your organization’s backed up data and summarize the results in a clear, actionable way.

With Gaia, you can:

Search intuitively: Use plain language to find answers across unstructured data in backup.
Summarize instantly: Turn large volumes of information into concise, easy-to-understand summaries.
Stay secure and compliant: All interactions respect your organization’s governance and access controls.
Saves time: Reduces complexity, and empowers decision-making

Gaia combines retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), robust data governance, and flexible APIs to allow users to ask questions in plain English and receive accurate, cited answers. The platform eliminates the need to create copies of data and incur the cost and overhead of maintaining another storage environment. Other AI products read from primary and make a copy before they perform indexing.
