Watch the records move from source to golden view
Play the process end to end, or step through one action at a time. One step asks for your decision as data steward.

Firms, people, identifiers and figures in this example are illustrative.
What the golden view reveals
Once every record carries a golden ID, your own data and third-party datasets join up. Pick an example, then switch to “Without it” to see the same analysis without the golden view.
Firms, people and figures are illustrative.
What it takes at scale, and who runs it
The same process runs across every record you hold. One threshold decides how much is linked automatically, how much a steward reviews, and how much time is left for insight.
Set the threshold for automatic linking
Each month around 12,000 new and changed records arrive. Matches scoring at or above the threshold link automatically. The rest go to a data steward. Move the slider to see the trade-off.

Six tests of a trusted golden view
Any business user can apply these tests without knowing how the golden view is built.
Every system holds its own version of your clients. Left alone, that produces wrong answers to everyday questions about growth, coverage and risk.
A governed process of matching, field-by-field selection and stewardship turns those versions into one golden view, kept current and shared with every system.
With that golden spine in place, your own data and third-party datasets combine to answer questions about growth, coverage and risk that no one system can answer alone.
