Ask the questionsyour warehouse can't answer.
Multi-hop questions — citation chains, fraud rings, patent prior-art, customer-360, drug-target-trial, supply-chain impact — are 15 self-joins and 4 minutes in SQL. In VioGraph they're 3 lines of Cypher and 3 milliseconds, running directly on Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, or Starburst. No ETL, no cluster to manage.
The same question · SQL vs Cypher
Find every paper that cites any of the 2021 breakthrough papers AND was authored by someone who later joined a top-3 research institution.
~4 min → 340 ms|Same question. Same data. Different query language.
Reads directly from your stack
No data movement, no ETL pipelines, no separate cluster to maintain. Your warehouse stays your source of truth — VioGraph just queries it as a graph.
Who it's for
Built for the teams who ask relationship questions.
Four buyer patterns we see most. If you're in one of these roles, VioGraph saves you a SQL sprint a week.
Data platform leads
Ship graph analytics without standing up a graph cluster.
Plug VioGraph into your existing warehouse. No new infra, no ETL, auditable open source.
Research & IP analysts
Citation networks, author disambiguation, patent prior-art.
Follow influence across papers, inventors, and institutions in a single Cypher query — not a week of CTEs.
IP & brand-protection counsel
Trademark conflict, prior-art search, jurisdiction mapping.
Walk every similarity edge — phonetic, semantic, ownership — in one traversal. A dozen clearance searches → one graph query.
Fraud & AML teams
Ring detection, mule networks, device sharing, address clusters.
The 15-join SQL that takes 4 minutes becomes 3 lines of Cypher in 3 milliseconds. Against the warehouse you already have.
Solutions for every data challenge
From structured analytics to unstructured intelligence, plus the infrastructure expertise to run it all.
The Product
Four tools that turn a warehouse into a graph.
Everything a data analyst needs to go from SQL tables to multi-hop queries — no separate graph database, no operations team.
See your relationships, not just rows.
Force-directed, hierarchical, concentric, and radial layouts tuned for million-edge graphs. Click any node to drill into its neighbourhood.
- 17 curated pattern templates (fraud rings, KYC chains, supply maps)
- Community detection + shortest-path overlays
- Export to PNG, SVG, CSV
From warehouse to graph in 4 steps
No ETL pipelines. No data duplication. Connect, map, launch, explore.
Connect Source
Point VioGraph at your Snowflake, BigQuery, Starburst or Databricks warehouse. Credentials stay in your VPC.
Map Your Data
Choose which tables become nodes and which become edges. Use the visual mapper or YAML config.
Launch Graph
One click exports data from your warehouse and spins up an isolated in-memory graph instance on Kubernetes.
Explore & Analyze
Run Cypher queries, execute graph algorithms, and explore results visually. All in the browser.
By the numbers
Graph analytics that feels instant.
Benchmarks from the public demo, hitting real warehouse data. Reproduce them yourself — everything is open source.
Built for teams that need answers fast
Real queries, real results. See how graph analytics solves problems across industries.
