Metadata as an enterprise digital asset

The long-term asset behind software is business knowledge: how customers are classified, orders progress, inventory is calculated, approvals work, and roles access information.

Purefect organizes that knowledge through six Meta types:

• Model describes business objects, relationships, and constraints.
• Service describes authorized business capabilities.
• Domain organizes related capabilities and responsibility boundaries.
• Page presents role-appropriate business views and actions.
• Menu organizes access by role and work objective.
• Config carries adjustable business parameters and policies.

Together they provide one understandable, governable language for people, systems, and AI.

AI can identify the current object, workflow stage, permitted actions, and potential impact of a change instead of guessing from fragmented documents and APIs.

Start with a bounded domain such as customer onboarding, purchasing collaboration, or order fulfillment and establish its core objects, workflows, roles, and measures.
