Dataiku Joins the Agentic AI Foundation to Strengthen AI Trust

Introducing 575 Lab, Dataiku's Open Source Office

Dataiku's newly established 575 Lab is dedicated exclusively to creating tools to execute on responsible AI principles. These will not be proprietary solutions built behind closed doors. We're developing critical trust infrastructure in the open, where it belongs. Dataiku joined the Linux Foundation and the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) — both industry-defining organizations — and Dataiku’s 575 Lab is committed to collaboration over competitive advantage on this front.

Open Source as the Foundation for AI Trust

To start, we're releasing two production-ready toolkits. These are not research papers, but deployable systems with complete implementations, hosting configurations, and customization frameworks, and include:

1. Agent Explainability Tools – Trace decision-making across multi-step agent workflows, making LLM reasoning transparent for data scientists, compliance teams, and end users alike.

2. Privacy-Preserving Proxies – Full end-to-end solutions for protecting sensitive data sent to closed-source models, including datasets, trained models, fine-tuning pipelines, and proxy applications your teams can run locally.

Both of these tools align with our principles outlined in the RAFT Framework, primarily in the categories of Reliable and Secure, and Transparent and Explainable.

The Paradox Demanding Open Solutions

Here's the paradox: Closed-source models, such as GPT-5 or Claude Sonnet, power countless applications; yet, organizations have no visibility into their decision-making processes, and the lack of trust by the users isn’t addressed. Open source tooling is the only way to create a trust layer around closed systems.

Traditional ML had interpretable models or traceable activations. LLMs — especially when operating as agents across multiple iterations — generate human-like responses that can deceive users into overconfidence while hiding complex reasoning chains.

So, what’s the fix? We need external frameworks to illuminate these black boxes, and those frameworks must be open to scrutiny, community validation, and universal adoption. Proprietary trust tools create vendor lock-in on the very infrastructure meant to protect users.

Community-Driven Development

Open source isn't just about code availability; it's about accountability. We're building with:

• Community scrutiny to ensure rigor, no proprietary team can match
• Model-agnostic design supporting explainability for all open-source and privacy-preserving proxies supports all major closed-source LLMs
• Production focus with vLLM integration, example agents, and deployment guides
• Active collaboration through regular office hours, Slack channels, and partnership opportunities.
