Feature

Your domain ontology

Model the concepts, relationships, constraints, and hierarchies that make your field difficult to translate.

Domain ontology graph with connected multilingual concept cards

A knowledge model for your language work.

Every domain has structure: roles, institutions, objects, processes, categories, exceptions, and inherited meanings. A domain ontology makes that structure explicit so terms are translated through relationships, not only dictionary entries.

Idanium connects ontology records to terminology, examples, source evidence, translation memory, guardrails, search, and workflow decisions.

Concept relationships

Map broader, narrower, equivalent, related, conflicting, historical, and deprecated concepts.

Domain constraints

Capture which terms apply by jurisdiction, period, institution, audience, or register.

Source grounding

Link concepts to sources, examples, citations, dates, and evidence quality.

Customer specificity

Model the customer's actual field, not a generic public taxonomy.

What this adds

The ontology gives the platform its memory of meaning.

A glossary says what word to use. An ontology explains what the word belongs to and when that choice is valid.

01

Search

Find related concepts even when wording differs across languages, scripts, or departments.

02

Quality

Detect when a translation uses a near concept that is not actually equivalent.

03

Governance

Attach ownership, approval, source authority, and review requirements to concept families.

Connected records

Ontology records connect structure to daily workflow.

The ontology is practical: it helps people search, translate, review, simplify, and maintain language over time.

Hierarchies

Parent concepts, child concepts, subtypes, and part-whole relationships.

Constraints

Jurisdiction, period, document type, audience, institution, region, and register.

Evidence

Source documents, examples, citations, review notes, and confidence levels.

Downstream links

Glossary terms, memory segments, guardrails, tasks, and notifications.
