Secoda

Secoda is a data catalog and governance company founded in 2021 in Toronto, Canada, by Etai Mizrahi and Andrew McEwen. It set out to make enterprise data searchable and understandable for both technical and non-technical users, and in December 2025 was acquired by Atlassian while continuing to operate under the Secoda brand.

The AI-powered platform organizes discovery, cataloging, monitoring and governance into one workspace, letting users search across the data stack in natural language, trace lineage, and enforce access policies at scale. Customers include Vanta, Remote, G2, Dialpad and Remitly, mostly data and governance teams.
