I'm trying to...
Monetize
Package, price, and license the data you already have publicly on the marketplace or privately to named partners. Narrative turns governed access into a high-margin revenue stream, with every contract enforced at the query layer, live in days.
Most data monetization dies in the pipes.
Every buyer wants a different schema, a different format, a different sample. Every contract becomes a custom integration, every license becomes an audit risk, and the data you’re trying to sell becomes more expensive to deliver than it is to keep.
SELL WITHOUT SHIPPING
Your data, available in place.
List your data on Narrative’s Marketplace and let buyers query it inside their own cloud, under your governance. No bulk delivery, no replication, no ungoverned copies floating in someone else’s environment.
NORMALIZED ON ARRIVAL
Buyers get usable data on day one.
Rosetta Stone normalizes your data so it lands in every buyer’s environment ready to query — in their schema, not yours. Onboarding goes from weeks to hours, and the data is more valuable to every customer.
ACCESS RULES
Sell exactly what’s permitted, nothing more.
Define exactly which fields can be queried, by whom, for which use cases, under which contracts. Access Rules enforce the license at the query layer so every transaction is governed.
PUBLIC OR PRIVATE
List on the marketplace, deal with named buyers, or both.
Sell publicly to a growing pool of marketplace buyers, or transact privately with named partners under deals only the participants know about. Same governance, same Access Rules, same query-layer enforcement — whether the buyer found you on a public listing or shook hands offline. Sell where your customers are.
Why Narrative?
Sell access, not data.
Marketplace
The exchange where governed monetization happens. Package, price, and license data on your terms — buyers query it in place under your contracts and Access Rules. No bulk shipping, no per-buyer custom prep, no ungoverned copies. Sell to one buyer or thirty under a single onboarding flow, with full visibility into what was queried, by whom, when.
Rosetta Stone
Monetization starts with usability. Rosetta Stone normalizes your data so every buyer sees clean, queryable attributes on day one — no bespoke prep, no per-buyer transformations. The data you list looks the same to every customer, and every customer can use it the moment they sign.
PROVEN RESULTS
Time-to-revenue down. Buyer onboarding up.

Ask Us Anything
How long does it take to see value?
Most teams are normalizing live data within days of connecting their first sources — not months. There's no multi-quarter implementation, no professional services dependency, no bespoke build required. You connect your sources, define what coherence looks like for your use case, and Narrative does the translation work.
Why not build a normalization layer in-house?
Most teams do, at first. The problem isn't the initial build — it's everything after. Every partner schema change breaks it. Every new data source requires rebuilding it. The engineering debt compounds faster than the business value accrues. Narrative replaces a perpetual maintenance burden with infrastructure that's designed to absorb that complexity so your team doesn't have to.
Why does data normalization matter more now that AI is involved?
AI models don't tolerate inconsistency. When a "user" in one dataset isn't recognized as the same "user" in another — different schemas, different taxonomies, different identifiers — your models train on noise and your outputs reflect it. Narrative normalizes data at the source so the AI layer above it is working with signal.
How is Narrative different from my data warehouse or CDP?
Your warehouse stores data. Your CDP activates it. Narrative normalizes it — resolving the semantic inconsistencies that make data from different sources incompatible before it ever reaches those tools. We don't replace your stack. We fix the layer underneath it that your stack assumes is already solved.
