The Context & Accountability Layer for AI Systems
Auditable · Governed · Explainable · Production-Ready
Website · Docs · Discord · Twitter/X · YouTube · PyPI · Changelog
Most AI agents act without a trail.
They store embeddings, not meaning. They make decisions that cannot be audited, recall context that cannot be explained, and produce outputs that cannot be traced back to a source. Regulators, auditors, and enterprise risk teams are asking the same question: can you prove what your AI did and why?
Semantica is the Context and Accountability Layer that sits alongside your LLM and vector store — adding structured intelligence, causal reasoning, and a full audit trail to every decision your agents make.
Core capabilities:
- Context Graphs — structured, queryable graph of everything your agent knows, decides, and reasons about
- Decision Intelligence — every decision is a first-class object: traceable, searchable by precedent, causally linked
- AI Governance — policy enforcement, SHACL constraints, conflict detection, and compliance rule checks built in
- Full Auditability — W3C PROV-O provenance on every fact; audit trail exportable to JSON, CSV, or RDF
- Reasoning Engines — forward chaining, Rete network, Datalog, SPARQL — explainable paths, not black boxes
- Drop-in Integrations — Agno native, 12-tool MCP server, 50+ CLI commands, 109 REST endpoints, plugins for 8 editors

Quick Start
pip install semantica
from semantica.context import ContextGraph
graph = ContextGraph(advanced_analytics=True)
# Every agent decision becomes a queryable, auditable knowledge node
decision_id = graph.record_decision(
category="vendor_selection",
scenario="Choose cloud provider for HIPAA workload",
reasoning="AWS offers BAA, mature HIPAA tooling, and existing team expertise",
outcome="selected_aws",
confidence=0.93,
)
# Ask "why did this happen?" and get a real, structured answer
chain = graph.trace_decision_chain(decision_id) # full causal ancestry
similar = graph.find_similar_decisions("cloud vendor", max_results=5) # precedents
impact = graph.analyze_decision_impact(decision_id) # downstream influence map
compliant = graph.check_decision_rules({"category": "vendor_selection"}) # policy check
If Semantica solves a real problem for you, a star helps others find it.
Why Semantica
| Vector DB + RAG | Plain LLM Memory | Semantica | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Recall method | Embedding similarity | Token window | Graph traversal + semantic search |
| Decision history | Not stored | Not stored | First-class queryable objects |
| Provenance | None | None | W3C PROV-O, source-linked |
| Reasoning | None | Black box | Forward chain, Rete, Datalog, SPARQL |
| Conflict detection | Silent overwrite | Silent overwrite | Detected, flagged, resolved |
| Time travel | No | No | Point-in-time graph snapshots |
| Compliance export | None | None | PROV-O, SHACL, OWL, RDF |
| Policy enforcement | None | None | Built-in rule engine + SHACL |
| Entity resolution | No | No | Blocking + semantic deduplication |
| Multi-agent context | Separate per agent | Separate per agent | Single shared intelligence layer |
Semantica does not replace your LLM or your vector store — it adds the structured intelligence and accountability layer they cannot provide.
Context Graphs
A Context Graph is the structured memory layer that traditional RAG is missing. Instead of flat embeddings that answer "what is similar?", a Context Graph answers "what is connected, why, and how?"
Every entity, relationship, decision, and fact is a first-class node — queryable by graph traversal and neighbor expansion. Entities link to source documents. Decisions link to evidence and consequences. Facts carry full provenance. Conflicts are detected, not silently overwritten.
from semantica.context import ContextGraph, AgentContext
from semantica.vector_store import VectorStore
graph = ContextGraph(advanced_analytics=True)
# Add nodes and typed edges
graph.add_node("acme_corp", "Organization", name="Acme Corp", industry="SaaS")
graph.add_node("alice_chen", "Person", name="Alice Chen", role="CTO")
graph.add_node("contract_001", "Contract", value=2_400_000, currency="USD")
graph.add_edge("alice_chen", "acme_corp", edge_type="works_for", since="2019-03-01")
graph.add_edge("acme_corp", "contract_001", edge_type="party_to", signed="2024-01-15")
# Graph traversal — hop through the graph from any node
neighbors = graph.get_neighbors("acme_corp", hops=2)
# Point-in-time snapshot — the graph as it existed on a past date
snapshot = graph.state_at("2024-01-01")
# AgentContext — high-level API for agent memory workflows
vs = VectorStore(backend="faiss")
ctx = AgentContext(vector_store=vs, knowledge_graph=graph)
ctx.store("Alice approved the Acme renewal in Q1 2024", conversation_id="conv_001")
retrieved = ctx.retrieve("who approved the Acme contract?")
Why graph over embeddings:
- Traversal finds connections embeddings miss — a person 3 hops from a contract
- Every node carries provenance — you can always ask "where did this come from?"
- Conflicts are detected and flagged before they corrupt your knowledge base
- Point-in-time snapshots let you replay history without reprocessing
Decision Intelligence
Decision Intelligence turns every AI choice from an ephemeral inference into a permanent, auditable, queryable record. It answers "what did your AI decide, why, and what happened next?" — the question regulators and enterprise risk teams ask with increasing frequency.
In Semantica, a decision is not a log line. It is a first-class graph node with a full lifecycle:
record_decision() → stored as a graph node with full structured context
add_causal_relationship() → linked to upstream causes and downstream effects
find_similar_decisions() → semantic precedent search across all past decisions
trace_decision_chain() → full causal ancestry back to root causes
analyze_decision_impact() → downstream influence map — everything this decision affected
check_decision_rules() → policy compliance gate against configurable rule sets
export / audit trail → W3C PROV-O, CSV, or JSON for regulator submission
from semantica.context import ContextGraph
graph = ContextGraph(advanced_analytics=True)
# Record decisions with full structured context
app_id = graph.record_decision(
category="credit_application",
scenario="Personal loan — $85k income, 31% DTI, 3yr employment",
reasoning="Income meets threshold; employment stable; no adverse credit events",
outcome="proceed_to_underwriting",
confidence=0.88,
metadata={"applicant_id": "A-7291"},
)
uw_id = graph.record_decision(
category="loan_underwriting",
scenario="Underwriting review for A-7291",
reasoning="DTI within policy; clean 36-month credit history",
outcome="approved",
confidence=0.94,
)
rate_id = graph.record_decision(
category="interest_rate",
scenario="Rate assignment for approved loan A-7291",
outcome="rate_set_8.9pct",
confidence=0.99,
)
# Build the auditable causal chain
graph.add_causal_relationship(app_id, uw_id, relationship_type="triggers")
graph.add_causal_relationship(uw_id, rate_id, relationship_type="enables")
# Query the intelligence
chain = graph.trace_decision_chain(rate_id)
similar = graph.find_similar_decisions("personal loan approval, 31% DTI", max_results=5)
impact = graph.analyze_decision_impact(uw_id)
compliant = graph.check_decision_rules({"category": "loan_underwriting", "confidence": 0.94})
