Firm: Business-as-code
A text-based work management system for technologists.
Why Firm?
Modern businesses are natively digital, but lack a unified view. Your data is scattered across SaaS tools you don't control, so you piece together answers by jumping between platforms.
Think of your business as a graph: organizations link to people, people link to projects, projects link to tasks, and so on. Firm lets you define these relationships in plain text files.
Version controlled, locally stored and structured as code with the Firm DSL. This structured representation of your work, business-as-code, makes your business accessible to yourself and to the robots that help you run it.
Features
- Everything in one place: Organizations, contacts, projects, and their relationships.
- Own your data: Plain text files and tooling that works on your machine.
- Open data model: Tailor to your business with custom schemas.
- Automate anything: Search, report, integrate, whatever. It's just code.
- AI-ready: Bots can easily read, write, and query your business structure.
