AI-POWERED DOCUMENT INTELLIGENCE
DataLattice
Turn complex documents into structured, usable data.
DataLattice™ is FTLabs-developed AI-powered document intelligence technology that transforms complex, unstructured documents into validated, structured, machine-readable data—with traceability back to the source.
FROM DOCUMENTS TO DATA
Important information is often trapped inside documents.
Financial markets and other document-intensive industries depend on information contained in PDFs, filings, disclosures, agreements and other complex source documents.
Extracting that information at scale is difficult. Manual processing is time-intensive. Document formats vary. Critical terms can appear in different locations and structures. And data is significantly more useful when users can understand where it came from and how it was derived.
DataLattice applies AI-powered document intelligence to help turn that complexity into structured data that can be validated, traced and used by downstream systems.
DOCUMENT INTELLIGENCE WITH ACCOUNTABILITY
Extract. Validate. Structure. Trace.
Extract
Identify and capture relevant information from complex source documents using AI-assisted document processing.
Validate
Apply validation logic, processing controls and domain-specific review to help establish confidence in extracted information.
Structure
Transform extracted information into normalized, machine-readable data for applications, analytics and downstream workflows.
Trace
Maintain connections between structured data and its source material, providing visibility into where information originated.
The result is more than extracted text. DataLattice creates structured information with the context and traceability required for real-world use.
BUILT FOR DATA THAT HAS TO BE USED
Intelligence is more valuable when it is structured and accountable.
Complex Document Processing
Process information from documents that vary in format, structure and presentation.
Structured Outputs
Convert document content into organized data that can be used programmatically.
Validation Controls
Combine automated processing with validation workflows appropriate to the use case.
Source Traceability
Preserve the relationship between extracted information and the underlying source document.
Domain Adaptability
Apply the technology to document types and data definitions specific to different markets and industries.
Scalable Processing
Support high-volume document processing without relying exclusively on manual extraction.

DataLattice separates the document-intelligence problem from the application that ultimately consumes the data. That makes the underlying technology reusable across different document types, data models and markets.
FROM MARKET-SPECIFIC EXPERTISE TO BROADER APPLICATION
Built first for fixed income. Designed to go further.
FTLabs developed DataLattice from work involving complex fixed-income documentation, where important data is often embedded in lengthy, inconsistent and highly specialized source materials.
The same underlying challenge exists well beyond a single asset class. Potential applications include:
Fixed Income
Municipal securities, corporate bonds, agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, certificates of deposit, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, CMO and CLO structures, and sovereign debt.
Other Document-Intensive Markets
Banking and financial services, insurance, energy, procurement, bankruptcy, property and public-record filings, nonprofit and regulatory documents.
Where valuable information is buried in complex documents, DataLattice creates a path from source material to structured data.
INITIAL COMMERCIAL APPLICATION
Powering a new approach to municipal reference data.
DataLattice provides the underlying document-intelligence technology for MuniREF, a commercial municipal reference-data offering developed through a strategic collaboration between DPC DATA and FTLabs.
DPC DATA brings deep municipal-market expertise, data resources and commercialization leadership. FTLabs serves as the technology-development partner and developed DataLattice, which processes complex municipal documents and helps transform their contents into validated, structured reference data.

TECHNOLOGY BUILT AROUND REAL DATA WORKFLOWS
From market infrastructure to document intelligence.
For more than 20 years, FTLabs has developed technology for complex fixed-income environments where systems, workflows and data have to work together.
DataLattice extends that engineering approach upstream to one of the market’s fundamental challenges: transforming information contained in documents into data that technology can actually use.
It is part of a broader FTLabs commitment to creating more connected systems, better information flow and more efficient financial markets.
