Build your first repository
Go from an empty organization to a live repository, step by step, with your team, your first assets, views, diagrams, charts, a dashboard and basic governance.
Get help from the AI assistant
Ask the assistant how to do something in Boldo, ask questions about your data in plain words, and let it fill in an asset for you to review.
Your home page, day to day
See what needs your attention, handle suggestions, confirm that your assets are up to date, and fill in what is missing, all from the home page.
Use cases
A real need, told from start to finish.
Rationalize your application portfolio

Prepare the annual IT budget
Build next year's budget assumptions in a scenario, measure their effect on your dashboards, and apply only what was approved.
Steer a transformation program
Describe a multi-year program in Boldo, prepare each of its steps in a scenario that builds on the previous one, and measure which processes and teams it touches.
Assess the impact of a decommissioning or an outage

Track technical obsolescence
Spot the servers and databases that are out of support, see which applications and teams depend on them, and keep an eye on the contracts coming up for renewal.
Set up repository governance
Give every asset an owner, launch a first attestation campaign, and follow the quality of your repository over time, with reminders that do the chasing for you.
Map business capabilities and their coverage
Describe what the company knows how to do, see which applications carry each capability, and spot the gaps, the overlaps and the costs.

Describe what moves between your applications, which business data goes through, and follow where personal data goes.
