Press contacts

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — March 18, 2026 — Tonic.ai, a leader in synthetic data solutions for AI development, today announced the general availability of Tonic Textual for Microsoft Fabric, enabling enterprises to detect, sanitize, and prepare unstructured text data for AI and machine learning directly within Fabric. By bringing AI-powered entity detection, redaction, and high-fidelity synthetic text generation into the Fabric ecosystem, Tonic Textual makes sensitive documents, transcripts, and other unstructured text safe to use for production AI workflows while maintaining strong compliance and governance.

With Fabric now widely adopted across global enterprises, Tonic Textual empowers data teams to transform sensitive text, from contracts and customer conversations to clinical notes and support transcripts, into privacy-protected, AI-ready datasets without moving data outside of the secure OneLake environment.

Unlocking value from unstructured data at enterprise scale

Historically, unstructured data posed a significant barrier to downstream AI use cases due to the complexity of de-identifying sensitive entities like names, IDs, addresses, and healthcare identifiers. Manual or homegrown solutions are slow, error-prone, and difficult to scale, especially in regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, and government.

With Tonic Textual for Microsoft Fabric, organizations can now:
Automate redaction and synthetic replacement of sensitive text directly inside Fabric.
Preserve compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, and other regulatory frameworks.
Keep governance and security centralized within OneLake and the broader Fabric platform.
Scale AI workflows across analytics, RAG (retrieval-augmented generation), model training, and reporting. 

This integration brings powerful entity detection, customizable redaction policies, and high-fidelity synthetic text generation, all while enabling IT and compliance teams to enforce governance and lineage controls native to the Fabric ecosystem.

Broad industry impact

Organizations in regulated sectors are already leveraging Tonic Textual and Fabric to expand the footprint of trusted data across their AI initiatives. By unlocking secure access to previously untapped unstructured sources, such as sensitive notes, call center transcripts, and legal documents, enterprises can accelerate innovation without compromising privacy.

Getting started 

Tonic Textual for Microsoft Fabric is generally available worldwide and can be added directly from the Workload Hub in the Microsoft Fabric console. Existing and new customers can begin operationalizing unstructured data for secure AI and analytics workflows today.
