Tentris

Bielefeld, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany, Europe

Overview

Tentris builds TentrisDB, a high-performance, disk-based RDF graph database designed for analytical workloads and large, highly connected enterprise knowledge graphs. The technology stems from more than eight years of research at the University of Paderborn and the company claims its architecture can execute queries up to 150 times faster than conventional graph databases while reducing storage needs by up to 1,000-fold. Tentris positions its product as infrastructure for modern enterprise AI use cases such as semantic search, RAG-based workflows and intelligent knowledge management. Several Fortune 500 technology companies are reported to be testing the technology, and Tentris says it already works with initial enterprise customers and has a growing pipeline of mid-sized and large companies evaluating the solution. The company plans to use newly raised capital to advance product development, scale engineering and sales headcount, and speed the market launch.
