For years, the definition of "Rapid Application Development" (RAD) has been static: building forms and grids for humans faster than anyone else. At Code On Time, we remain committed to that mission. In our upcoming release, we are delivering top-notch development tools designed to make your everyday experience more productive and satisfying than ever before.

But we are also doing something more. We are taking the rigorous, metadata-driven architecture we perfected for human interfaces and using it to unlock something far more powerful.

We are pivoting. We are giving you the ultimate tools to build web apps today, while evolving into a Digital Workforce Platform for tomorrow.

Powered by our proprietary Axiom Engine, you will soon be able to deploy secure, autonomous digital agents in minutes. And you won't be building this future alone - you will have your own AI team to help you do it, if you choose so.

The Digital Workforce: Three Personas

The platform is built on three distinct AI personas. Two of them live inside your development environment to help you build, and one lives inside your deployed app to do the work.

1. The AI Tutor: Your 24/7 Expert

• Role: The Mentor (Development Side)
• Availability: Free in all editions (including the Builder Edition).
• Power Source: Code On Time covers the cost using Google Gemini Pro with Context Caching.

The Tutor is your always-on, multilingual help desk. It provides instant answers based on a deep, cached understanding of the App Studio's service manual.

When you ask, "How do I configure a master-detail view for suppliers and products?", the Tutor doesn't just give you text. It understands your intent and generates clickable navigation pointers. If you give your consent, it can even see your live context (e.g., you are currently looking at the Suppliers page). It uses this to guide you directly to the specific node in the App Explorer, like a senior engineer pointing at your screen.

2. The AI Builder: The Automation Engineer

• Role: The Maker (Development Side)
• Availability: Powered by Builder Credits.
• Bonus: Every new customer account gets a one-time $50 credit to try it out.

It is always your choice whether to prompt the free Tutor or use your credits for the Builder.

The Builder is the Tutor supercharged. With your explicit consent, it gains access to your app's live artifacts (your data controllers, pages, and schema) to provide context-aware assistance.

When you switch to "Builder" mode and give a complex instruction like "Create a dashboard for Sales with a chart showing quarterly revenue," the Builder analyzes your specific project structure. It generates a "Cheat Sheet" containing human-friendly, step-by-step instructions.

You remain in the director's seat. You can follow the steps at your own pace, or (because the Cheat Sheet also contains a machine-readable version of those steps) you can simply press "Apply All." The App Studio will then execute those instructions invisibly within the App Explorer. Crucially, the AI never touches your source code. It operates the configuration tools just like a human expert would, ensuring every change is safe and valid.

3. The AI Co-Worker: The Digital Employee

• Role: The Operator (Operational Side)
• Availability: 100 Free "Employees" per app.

The Co-Worker is the result of your work. It is the secure, autonomous agent that your end-users will interact with to get work done. It operates the "invisible UI" of your application, inheriting the exact permissions and security rules you defined for your human users.

To enable this, your organization simply connects the app to your own LLM of choice (BYOK). Your data never leaves your servers; it is processed securely by the Co-Worker using only your approved AI provider.

The pricing is simple: The first 100 Digital Co-Workers (users with the Co-Worker role) are free. For deployments larger than 100 users, we charge an annual Digital Co-Worker License technology fee. Note that this fee covers the platform capabilities; LLM consumption is paid directly by you to your provider.

The Axiom Engine: How It Works

The Axiom Engine provides the infrastructure that powers these personas. We have designed a flexible consumption model that puts you in control of costs and data privacy.

The "Hosted" Model (Fast & Optimized)

By default, Code On Time handles the complexity for the development tools.

• Context Caching: We maintain a version-specific cache of our service manual. This makes the Tutor incredibly fast and free for you.
• Builder Credits: For the Builder, you can purchase credits (priced at $499 USD per unit) to fuel the heavy lifting of analyzing your schema and generating artifacts. These credits are shared across your team.

The "BYOK" Model (Private & Sovereign)

For organizations with strict data governance, we offer a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) mode.

• Total Privacy: You configure your own LLM API key. The entire prompt (including the service manual, your app’s schema, and your request) is submitted directly to your provider.
• No Caching: There is no context caching in this mode; you have full control over the data flow.

Built-In, Not Bolt-On

The Axiom Engine isn't a separate server you have to install, manage, or license. It is compiled directly into the core of every application you create. When you deploy your app, you are deploying the Engine. The HATEOAS API, the State Machine, and the Heartbeat are all contained within your application's binaries, running on your infrastructure, under your control.

You can use the platform purely to architect your system, generate the specs, and then hand the SRS to your own team to build a custom front-end. You can even continue to use the built-in HATEOAS API as your backend, letting you keep the "agentic" power while having total freedom over the UI.

The "Escape Hatch": High-Value Outputs

We know that developers fear lock-in. That is why the Digital Workforce Platform is designed to be the ultimate specification generator.

Using Builder Credits, you can ask the platform to generate high-value artifacts from your application:

• PRD: Product Requirements Document. Captures the business logic, user flows, and data rules of your running application to validate requirements with stakeholders.
• SRS: Software Requirements Specification. A complete technical blueprint of your app that can be handed to a development team to build a custom project in any stack.
• LOE: Automated Level of Effort. An objective, AI-calculated analysis of the time and cost required to build an equivalent application in a specific tech stack (e.g., React, Angular, or Blazor).
• GEN: Scaffolding Code. Generates a starter project for other frameworks (e.g., generate a Next.js + React app structure) based directly on your application's schema and logic.

You can use the platform purely to architect your system, generate the specs, and then hand the SRS to your own team to build a custom front-end. You can even continue to use the generated HATEOAS API as your backend, letting you keep the "agentic" power while having total freedom over the UI.

Conclusion

The future of development isn't just about writing code faster; it's about generating a workforce. With the upcoming release of the Builder Edition, the Tutor, and the $50 starting credit, we are removing the barriers to entry.

We are delivering the best RAD tools in our history. And as a bonus, every app you build with them is now an Agentic Platform by default. You get the productivity you love, plus the workforce you need, all in one click.

We are no longer just a RAD tool for databases. We are the Rapid Agent Development (RAD) platform. Your new team is waiting.
