Built by those who use it

A team lead describes the tool. Agents build it, test it and hand it over for approval.

One base for every tool

Employee, shift, customer and order are defined once. Every tool works on the same data.

Safe by default

Every tool and agent acts with its user’s rights. Every change can be undone.

Ready for agents

Work your SaaS never let you automate goes to agents. People decide what they can’t.

Building software just got cheap. Owning it did not.

Your software almost fits.

The gap gets filled with spreadsheets, hand-offs and headcount.

Everyone builds their own tools now.

35% of teams have replaced a SaaS tool with their own build. IT reviews them, and none of them share a database.

Suites add AI on top of an old core.

54% of SAP users still run the old ECC suite, a year before mainstream support ends.

Retool, Build vs. Buy, Feb 2026. DSAG Investitionsreport 2026.

Illustrative

How it works.

Three layers. We run the data and the work layer, your people build the tools in between, and agents work across all of them.

      Illustrative. Brendel & Faust Logistik is a fictional company.

      A tool your team built cannot quietly leak your wages.

      Four defaults, set once by IT, for every tool and every agent.

      Your user’s rights

      Every tool and agent acts with the rights of the person using it.

      Least privilege

      A swap board can move shifts. It cannot touch pay.

      Nothing is deleted

      Append-only and versioned. Any write can be undone.

      Sensitive actions ask

      Pay and contracts always route to a named person.

      • Colleagues’ salariesHidden
      • Changing a bonusAsks HR

      The tool inherits her rights, not admin rights. Built in an afternoon, safe from the first click.

      Fast to build. Safe to run. Yours to keep.

      Tools your teams build themselves, on one database your IT controls, kept running by us.
