# Welcome to Credible

> AI-powered semantic data platform for governed analytics

Credible is the platform for creating a single source of truth for your data's meaning. We help you transform raw data into governed semantic models that power consistent, trustworthy answers for your entire organization—from BI dashboards to AI agents.

Our platform is built on [Malloy](https://malloydata.dev), a powerful, open-source language designed for data. This gives you a durable foundation that's readable, reusable, and free from vendor lock-in. The Credible platform adds an AI-accelerated workflow, allowing you to develop models in your favorite code editor, manage them with Git, and serve them anywhere. You can build locally, host on your own infrastructure, or use our managed service—the choice is always yours.

A model built on Credible becomes the reliable hub for all your data consumers:

**AI Agents**: Provide trusted, contextual data to your AI agents via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Connect [LLMs like Claude](/how-to/analyzing/ai-assistants-mcp) or build [custom agents](/how-to/integrating/custom-ai-agents).

**Embedded Analytics**: Build rich data experiences in your own applications using the [Publisher SDK](/how-to/integrating/embedded-analytics).

**Business Intelligence**: Connect your existing BI tools through our [standard SQL API](/how-to/integrating/bi-tool-integration).

No matter how your team consumes data, Credible ensures they're working from a single, trusted foundation, ready for whatever you build next.
