Automate Global Privacy on Any Tech Stack

What is Astralis?

Astralis (pronounced /uh-stral-iss/, from Latin: Astrālis) governs how every model and agent uses enterprise data, in real time, solving complex compliance issues.

Leveraging the powerful and lightweight Fides ontology (opens in a new tab), Astralis provides automated data mapping, consent management, and data subject request fulfillment, with built-in support for regulations such as GDPR (opens in a new tab), CCPA, VCDPA, and LGPD (opens in a new tab) by default. It also supports powerful AI governance use cases, like automated impact assessments and purpose-based access control at runtime.

Why is it called Astralis?

Astralis comes from the Latin astrum, meaning "star," by way of the adjective astralis: "of the stars" or "starry." The word was used in later Latin for anything measured or fixed against the stars, the way a course or a position holds steady by reference to something constant overhead.

Astralis stood out for its embodiment of this project's philosophy: to give enterprises a fixed point of reference for how their data and their AI systems are governed, one that holds no matter how fast the business moves or how far its systems reach.

Why is the ontology called Fides?

Fides was the goddess of trust and good faith in Roman paganism. Fides represented everything that was required for "honor and credibility" in every aspect of Roman life. In addition to this, Fides means "reliability": reliability between two parties, which is always reciprocal — the same reciprocity a shared privacy vocabulary depends on.
