Why this is hard
Every company has a backlog of software it will never build. IT builds the head of the curve: the ERP, the CRM, the core product. The long tail does not get built: the client onboarding portal, the exception dashboard, the per-account report. That work survives in spreadsheets, email threads and the memory of the one person who knows how it works. It costs slower onboarding, a higher cost to serve, and processes that never fit what each client needs.
What Substrait does
The person closest to the problem builds the tool. Domain experts build with the AI model they already use, and Substrait coaches them step by step.
Nobody starts from nothing. Every installation is seeded with templates of common business software, already wired to the company’s cloud, sign-on and data.
Requests become tools. Anyone can ask for a new tool, or a change to one they use, in plain words. Requests sit in a backlog with status and decisions. Build agents plan, build, test and ship each change under the company’s own rules, and the tool’s owner stays in charge.
IT keeps control without building everything. Every tool passes the same security check and the same data grants, whoever built it.
