A New Chapter Begins: 1touch + Everpure

Today, we embrace a defining moment in our journey: 1touch has officially signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by Everpure, formerly Pure Storage. This is a transformative step forward that builds on our dedication to innovation and unlocking enterprise data, and making it AI-ready in a trusted and secure way. This acquisition is a strong validation of our vision and the technology we’ve built. It reflects Everpure's confidence in our platform, approach, and ability to solve complex customer challenges.

From day one, our goal has been to deliver innovative, reliable, and secure solutions, and this partnership accelerates that mission - allowing us to expand our capabilities, reach new markets, and continue turning our vision into tangible value for customers and partners.As AI becomes central to business operations, the modern enterprise has reached an inflection point. AI has exposed the weaknesses of current infrastructure, where siloed data, manual processes, and inflexible architectures cannot support the scale, speed, and intelligence demands of enterprise AI.

This acquisition extends Everpure's data management capabilities by adding data discovery and semantic context to enable AI-ready data. Everpure and 1touch will make enterprise data AI-ready at the source, enabling models by integrating storage with 1touch’s ability to discover, classify, contextualize, and enrich data across all datasets and any environment—from SaaS to mainframe.

Together, we will further expand the Everpure platform to provide unmatched contextual intelligence—giving customers the foundation they need to move AI projects from pilot to production at record speed and with trust.

‍Extending our innovation: AI-ready data, governed and contextualized at scale

‍Unlocking the full power of enterprise data requires entity-level context - the ability to understand not just where data lives, but what it represents, how it’s connected, and how it should be used. With this contextual intelligence in place, organizations can safely operationalize AI, enforce responsible access, and move from experimentation to real, measurable value; turning data into a governed, AI-ready engine for innovation.

AI governance is critical, ensuring insights are trusted, compliant, and ethical. At the heart of this is 1touch’s entity-level semantic knowledge graph, giving a unified, context-rich view of all data assets and their relationships, enabling precise control and governance at scale.With this foundation, AI reasoning can connect, infer, and synthesize across entities, turning data into actionable insights. Combined with strong governance, organizations achieve true AI sovereignty - confidently leveraging AI to drive decisions, scale innovation, and maintain trust across the enterprise.

By joining forces with Everpure, we will accelerate this vision by combining resources, scale, and expertise to deliver AI-ready, context-rich data capabilities to enterprises faster. Together, we will help organizations unlock the full power of AI, governed and contextualized at the entity level, across every part of their data landscape.
