🗺️ SemantiCore Development Roadmap

🎯 Vision & Goals

Mission: Build the most comprehensive open-source semantic data transformation platform that bridges unstructured data and intelligent AI systems.

Vision: Enable anyone to transform any data format into intelligent, structured semantic knowledge graphs, embeddings, and ontologies for LLMs, Agents, RAG systems, and Knowledge Graphs.
