Frequent changes in business needs

Tight and urgent delivery deadlines

Slow and lengthy development processes

Countless AI demos look promising, but are hard to apply in real business scenarios

Difficulty integrating AI models seamlessly with existing systems and workflows

Lack of flexibility to adapt AI solutions to unique processes and security requirements

• Trying to encapsulate every function into no-code components and relying solely on no-code to meet all requirements.
• Use no-code to cover 80% of common needs, and extend with custom development for the remaining unique requirements.

• Relying on AI to generate a complete business system and replace all business processes
• Build a strong human–AI collaboration framework, enabling AI to create real value in specific tasks and processes

Data model-driven, not form/table–driven

Instead of being constrained by forms or tables, NocoBase adopts a data model–driven approach, separating data structure from user interface to unlock unlimited possibilities.

• UI and data structure are fully decoupled
• Multiple blocks and actions can be created for the same table or record in any quantity or form
• Supports the main database, external databases, and third-party APIs as data sources

What you see is what you get, incredibly easy to use

While enabling the development of complex business systems, NocoBase keeps the experience simple and intuitive.

• One-click switch between usage mode and configuration mode
• Pages serve as a canvas to arrange blocks and actions, similar to Notion
• Configuration mode is designed for ordinary users, not just programmers

AI employees, integrated into your business systems

Unlike standalone AI demos, NocoBase allows you to embed AI capabilities seamlessly into your interfaces, workflows, and data context, making AI truly useful in real business scenarios.

• Define AI employees for roles such as translator, analyst, researcher, or assistant
• Seamless AI–human collaboration in interfaces and workflows
• Ensure AI usage is secure, transparent, and customizable for your business needs

Everything is a plugin, designed for extension

Adding more no-code features will never cover every business case. NocoBase is built for extension through its plugin-based microkernel architecture.

• All functionalities are plugins, similar to WordPress
• Plugins are ready to use upon installation
• Pages, blocks, actions, APIs, and data sources can all be extended through custom plugins

Open source, built on mainstream technology

NocoBase is transparent, controllable, and easy to adopt.

• Core and foundational plugins are fully open source
• Written in TypeScript, using Node.js, React, Koa, and other mainstream stacks
• Defines only standard interfaces, avoiding private DSLs
• Lightweight enough to run on a low-spec server, manageable even by a single developer

Transparent and permissive licensing

NocoBase is open source and free to use. Commercial licenses and plugins are offered with a one-time payment model.

• No subscriptions
• No consideration for the number of users
• No consideration for the number of applications
• No consideration for the amount of data

We considered AirTable and NocoDB but ultimately chose NocoBase due to its superior flexibility and deployment options. It allows deployment directly within our AWS environment, supports unlimited users, offers granular permission management, and features a decoupled frontend-data architecture that enables easy interface customization. Moreover, its integrated workflow system and automatic API generation have significantly streamlined our processes.

Before NocoBase, we lacked a dedicated customer service and operations management system. Our business was expanding rapidly, and we needed a solution that could be quickly built to handle increasing demands. NocoBase addressed this challenge exceptionally well. Its outstanding data table relational capabilities allowed us to efficiently integrate diverse data structures. This enabled our customer service team to quickly retrieve user information and resolve customer entitlement issues in real-time, significantly boosting our operational efficiency.

We were looking for a flexible no-code platform to create a customized scheduling solution tailored to Okechamp's fast-expanding logistics needs. NocoBase quickly emerged as the best choice with its Schema-first approach, modular structure, and vibrant community. It allowed us to easily build custom views and reporting tools. We plan to continue leveraging NocoBase in more client projects moving forward.

Previously, we relied on paper-based processes for HR management and leave approvals, which was both inefficient and error-prone. Since using NocoBase to build our HR, attendance, and leave management workflows, we've achieved a truly paperless office. Managing over 110 employees has become efficient and intuitive. NocoBase's flexible interface design and powerful API capabilities perfectly cater to the diverse needs of our real estate business. Compared to tools like Salesforce, it's not only highly customizable but also supports a one-time purchase, making it incredibly cost-effective. We're now planning to migrate more systems, including our CRM, to NocoBase, transforming it into our company's core business platform and portal.

During the development of our smart factory system, we chose NocoBase as our core platform. Its streamlined setup process empowered even non-technical staff to quickly build interfaces, dramatically boosting development efficiency. With its rich plugin ecosystem and powerful workflow engine, we could flexibly adapt to a wide range of business scenarios while maintaining system quality and scalability. Thanks to NocoBase's granular permission controls, we ensured secure and efficient collaboration across workflows like equipment maintenance and HR management. Once deployed, the system—integrated with PC, mobile, and 5G infrastructure—enabled real-time data feedback and fast input, laying a strong foundation for our smart factory initiative.

After evaluating multiple low-code platforms globally, we ultimately selected NocoBase. Its capability for on-premises deployment and easy extensibility aligns perfectly with our rigorous demands for data security and tailored system design in the chemical industry. With NocoBase's expert support team and flexible data modeling features, deploying our system was both swift and dependable.

Xiong Zhi, Project Lead, XtalPi

I cannot emphasize enough the great experience we've had with NocoBase as a no-code/low-code platform. It stands out as exceptionally user-friendly, making our development process both smooth and efficient. What impressed me most was how easy it was to work on development of the user experience once the data model was in place. This streamlined approach allowed us to develop a full-fledged system, designed to be used by several hundred organizations, in just a matter of weeks.

NocoBase has effectively shattered the common misconception that powerful systems require months or even years of work. I highly recommend it for any organization looking to fast-track their development cycle without sacrificing quality.

Thomas Wennersten CTO

As the core of data management, API services, and workflows, NocoBase significantly lowers the development difficulty, allowing our developers to focus more on the implementation of business logic, thereby greatly improving development efficiency.

NocoBase possesses excellent integration capabilities, enabling seamless interfacing with various third-party services and systems to achieve data sharing and functional integration. This means we do not need to build all functionalities from scratch but can instead make full use of existing services and resources to quickly integrate various functions and services into our applications. This integration capability not only reduces development time and costs but also enriches and diversifies the application's functionalities, meeting the diverse needs of users.

In this rapidly evolving digital age, NocoBase is undoubtedly a powerful weapon for us to face challenges and achieve innovation. We are thankful for the NocoBase team's efforts.
