Build internal apps with osFoundry — replace team chat, CRM, docs
osFoundry’s app platform builds internal tools that replace category software for your team — team chat, CRM, dashboards, docs, project trackers. Every app gets its own database, secrets, scheduled jobs, and a private subdomain. Ship a v1 in an afternoon, evolve it with Maestro pair-programming.
Quick answer
- Build internal tools in the web IDE — Sandpack hot-reload.
- Each app gets its own Postgres, secrets, KV, file storage.
- Private subdomain by default; custom domain optional.
- Maestro pair-programs with you on the codebase.
Key capabilities
- Web IDE for rapid iteration with Sandpack hot-reload.
- Per-app database, secrets, KV, file storage all bundled.
- Maestro pair-programs the codebase — multi-file edits with diff preview.
- Private subdomain by default; custom domain optional.
- AI primitives (`invokeAI`, memory groups, agents) callable from app code.
- Visitor auth, rate limiting, and audit logging out of the box.
How to do it in osFoundry
- Pick a starter template — CRM, dashboard, docs, dataset viewer — or start blank.
- Tell Maestro what you need — "Add a contacts list with search and tags." Maestro writes the React + the schema + the queries.
- Hit Deploy — Build runs in CI, artefact lands in storage, served from a CDN. Subdomain live in ~30 seconds.
- Share with your team — Invite teammates as workspace members. Visitor auth gates the URL automatically.
How osFoundry compares
| Capability | osFoundry | Most other tools |
|---|
| Build time | AI-assisted from prompt to deployed URL. | Drag-and-drop builders limit logic; code-from-scratch is slow. |
| Database | Per-app Postgres included — no setup. | Bring/host your own DB or pay for a third tier. |
| AI primitives | Native — invokeAI, agents, memory groups in app code. | Bolt on an external AI provider. |
| Lock-in | Standard web app; export the code anytime. | Proprietary builder runtime. |
Use cases
- Sales ops: Build a deal pipeline app that pulls CRM data via the OAuth connector, scores leads with Maestro, and surfaces top-10 daily.
- Support team: Internal triage tool that ingests tickets, drafts replies with the AI, queues for a human to send.
- Eng manager: Build a per-team dashboard from the per-app Postgres, charts auto-update via realtime channels.
Frequently asked questions
Can osFoundry replace Slack/Salesforce/Notion entirely?
For many teams, yes — you write what you need with AI assistance. The platform supplies the runtime, database, and integrations.
How fast can I ship a v1?
A simple CRM-style app: a few hours of pair-programming with Maestro. A polished internal tool: a day or two.
Can my app talk to existing services?
Yes — OAuth connectors for 30+ services, plus webhooks and HTTP fetch for anything else.
What stack does the app use?
React + TypeScript on the front-end (Sandpack runtime). Serverless functions (TS or Python) or container compute for the back-end.
Pricing
Per-second compute + per-GB-day storage + per-million function invocations. Idle apps cost ~$0; storage continues to bill.
