The Lightning IQ Platform

From Chaos to Clarity
at Petabyte Scale.

The world’s fastest real-time unstructured data discovery platform.Is your data an asset or a liability?

In the era of AI and petabyte-scale growth, legacy discovery tools built in the early 2000s can no longer keep up. Lightning IQ (LIQ) was engineered to solve the modern enterprise's biggest challenge: gaining 100% visibility into unstructured data across hybrid environments—in real-time.

Turn Off the "Junk Tax"

Up to 80% of enterprise data is Redundant, Obsolete, or Trivial (ROT). You are currently paying to store, back up, and carbon-offset digital waste.

AI Without Hallucinations

Training LLMs on dirty data (duplicates, sensitive PII, obsolete files) creates business risk. LIQ creates a clean, safe "feed" for your AI initiatives.

Regulatory Armor

DORA, NIS2, GDPR. Compliance is no longer a "once a year" audit. LIQ enables continuous scanning to locate PII across petabytes in seconds.

Architecture & Performance

Built for the Petabyte Era

Your current toolset likely chokes after 100TB. Lightning IQ is built for the Petabyte era. It uses an event-driven microservices architecture to index metadata and content without bringing your network to a halt.

Unmatched Velocity

Index 1 Petabyte per hour (meta scan) or up to 1.3 billion files/hour. We don't just sample; we index everything.

Agentless & Non-Intrusive

Deploys in under 30 minutes on standard Ubuntu VMs. Connects via NFS, SMB, and S3 with modified packet handling for ultra-low latency.

Secure by Design

Fully on-prem capable with no call-home requirement. Read-Only scanning modes ensure data integrity.

Vendor Agnostic

Whether your data sits on NetApp, Nutanix, Azure, AWS, or Isilon, we treat it as one unified data estate.

The Lightning IQ Capability Suite

1. Cyber Recovery & Resilience

When ransomware hits, the bottleneck isn't the decryption tool—it's the decision of what to decrypt. Legacy restoration recovers "The Haystack" (TB/hour). Lightning IQ allows you to identify "The Needles" (critical business data) and prioritize them, leaving the ROT for later.

2. Legal Discovery & ECA

Stop paying to host irrelevant data. Instead of the traditional "Collect Everything" model, Lightning IQ enables In-Place Culling. Identify relevant custodians and date ranges before the data ever leaves your secure environment.

3. Dark Data Illumination

Billions of files haven't been touched in over 7 years. Lightning IQ shines a light on "Dark Data"—files that are unclassified, unknown, and unmanaged—allowing you to apply policy-based remediation (Delete, Archive, Move, Encrypt) in bulk.
