BigID, the leading platform for data security, privacy, compliance, and AI data management, introduced Prompt-Based Classification, the industry’s first natural language interface for data discovery and classification. With this launch, BigID is replacing rigid rule-based systems with an AI-powered engine that lets users describe what they’re looking for in plain English, then automatically finds and classifies the data.
Traditional classification tools rely on technical rules, brittle pattern libraries, and complex setups, making them inaccessible to non-technical teams. BigID’s Prompt-Based Classification changes that by enabling anyone to define sensitive data in free-text, paste in regulatory language, or articulate AI policy requirements, while BigID handles the rest with contextual, scalable classification with improved accuracy.

“Security and compliance teams need better tools that do more with less,” said Dimitri Sirota, CEO and Co-Founder at BigID. “With Prompt-Based Classification, we’re enabling every team – from privacy to security to compliance – with a smarter, faster, and more intuitive way to find and secure sensitive data.”
