LARAsuite is an open-source system for research data management (RDM). It also includes an AI-driven research assistant that helps researchers work with data and information.
LARAsuite aims to reduce the effort required to enter data and metadata to an absolute minimum. Many steps can be automated, so researchers spend less time on manual documentation.
To ensure different systems can work well together, LARAsuite uses open standards and open communication protocols. It represents information in a semantic, ontology-based way.
On this basis, LARAsuite can use both symbolic AI and stochastic AI such as Large Language Models (LLMs).
Data can be exchanged between different LARA instances and synchronized with (inter)national repositories. Queries can be performed using SPARQL.
LARAsuite and many of its components are developed by an international open-source community. The system is generic and can be tailored to specific needs through a plugin system.

Humanities@NFDI: Working Together for Sustainable Research Data
Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration for Preserving Cultural Heritage
Humanities@NFDI brings together four NFDI consortia to ensure the long-term accessibility and reuse of research data in the humanities and cultural sciences. Through shared standards, vocabularies, and community-driven activities, the initiative fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and strengthens digital cultural heritage research.
QualidataNet by KonsortSWD-NFDI4Society is the “central point of entry” for qualitative data and its secondary use.
QualidataNet – Making Qualitative Research Data Visible and Reusable
QualidataNet is the central access point for the reuse, archiving, and research data management of qualitative research data. Its search portal improves the visibility and discoverability of qualitative datasets from different providers. Through practical guidance, tools such as the open-source anonymization tool QualiAnon, and contributions to international metadata standards, QualidataNet supports researchers, educators, and institutions working with qualitative data. At the same time, the network fosters collaboration, exchange, and a stronger culture of qualitative data reuse across the community.
