Congratulations for launching the ECM Substack! Loving the LiDAR analogy, the topic, and the "context" about how to do better AI via rules, entities, and better semantics fed to the model. Good stuff!
Thanks Mark - really appreciate it. When we stepped back and looked at all of the pieces of the puzzle we were working on, they started to click together - context matters!
Looking forward to more. I’m especially interested in the difference between context engineering, prompt engineering, semantic layers + ECM, use cases, and more about Context Catalogs. Looking forward to it, this is an important area
Brilliant. Organisations desperately need context management that over arches the enterprise systems that use AI for automated decision making. It’s like business AI metadata. As we move to multi-modal AI and multi system agent solutions, this will be a necessity
“Business AI Metadata” ==> Yes! Good analogy! There are also parallels with semantic layers and the data prep / wrangling aspects of BI tools from yesteryear :) And Data Catalogs, which are more designed for BI / Human consumption than ECM. It’s cool to see a new category of software emerge.
Exactly, Robert. And it’s not just multi-modal or multi-agent systems that benefit - our approach gives large organizations control over their business context instead of handing it to the frontier labs. Much like how enterprises adopted multi-cloud strategies to avoid lock-in, we’re helping them achieve the same sovereignty over their AI context, without the pain that came with that first transition.

Clearly, implementing good AI is now a requirement to compete. Thanks for the information!
On point and exactly what companies need to integrate the new technology

Good to see the conversation building about this important area!
