A team lead describes the tool. Agents build it, test it and hand it over for approval.
Employee, shift, customer and order are defined once. Every tool works on the same data.
Every tool and agent acts with its user’s rights. Every change can be undone.
Work your SaaS never let you automate goes to agents. People decide what they can’t.
The gap gets filled with spreadsheets, hand-offs and headcount.
35% of teams have replaced a SaaS tool with their own build. IT reviews them, and none of them share a database.
54% of SAP users still run the old ECC suite, a year before mainstream support ends.

Three layers. We run the data and the work layer, your people build the tools in between, and agents work across all of them.
Who built what, which data it touches, what agents did today and what waits for a person. Click through a fictional company with sample data.

Illustrative. Brendel & Faust Logistik is a fictional company.
Four defaults, set once by IT, for every tool and every agent.
Every tool and agent acts with the rights of the person using it.
A swap board can move shifts. It cannot touch pay.
Append-only and versioned. Any write can be undone.
Pay and contracts always route to a named person.
The tool inherits her rights, not admin rights. Built in an afternoon, safe from the first click.
Tools your teams build themselves, on one database your IT controls, kept running by us.
