The discovery-layer position for data artifacts.

A cross-cutting coordinate for systems that find, index, and surface data artifacts — from ML model outputs to provenance records — across distributed environments.

Coordinated sets this position belongs to — the coverage it extends. Counts are the live cluster size in the graph.

Why this is canonical

'Artifact discovery' names an emerging function in data and AI engineering: the ability to locate and surface discrete data artifacts (model outputs, experiment records, pipeline outputs, provenance objects) across distributed repositories. On .com, it captures this function as a transferable namespace for catalogs, registries, and intelligence layers built around artifact findability.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

ML / AI engineering
A platform that discovers, indexes, and surfaces model artifacts, experiment outputs, and training data across ML infrastructure.
MLOps platforms, AI engineering tooling companies
Data governance and cataloging
A discovery layer for enterprise data artifacts — surfacing lineage records, schema versions, and pipeline outputs.
Data catalog and governance platform builders

Illustrative, not exhaustive — held as a transferable canonical position, open to the buyer's own use.
