cajeX

Architecture governance has been broken for years. Reviews take weeks, knowledge is fragmented across Confluence pages and PDFs, and there's no audit trail when projects ship out of compliance. cajeX fixes this. The atomic unit is the directive — an approved, structured rule distilled from your standards documents that AI can apply at review time. Every governance module in the platform produces, applies, or audits directives. The AI Co-Worker works in two directions. Powered by Claude (Anthropic), it extracts candidate directives from your knowledge base — standards documents, policies, whitepapers — and proposes them for architect review and approval. When projects are submitted, it applies the approved directive set and surfaces violations as findings, each with severity, AI confidence score, and a suggested remediation step. The AI never auto-approves; architects stay in control of what enters the rule set. Every governance module modern teams need. Architecture Sessions with configurable workflow templates (Governance Standard, Agile Sprint, Minimal Review). Findings Management with full lifecycle from identification to remediation. Document Management with versioning, backed by Cloudflare R2. Reports & Compliance with Markdown/PDF export, platform audit logs, and GDPR request handling. Real-time Dashboards with drill-down KPIs across active projects and findings. Built for enterprises, regulated industries, and consultancies. Complete workspace isolation via composite partition keys and per-workspace AES-GCM-256 encrypted AI credentials. Enterprise SSO via Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, SAML, SCIM 2.0 provisioning, and Single Logout. Bring-Your-Own-AI-Model with per-workspace API keys. Bring-Your-Own-Cloud — run the data plane inside your AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-prem environment for full data residency control. Open-standard webhooks with HMAC signatures, Stripe billing built in. Unlike traditional enterprise architecture tools that gate every feature behind a "Contact Sales" button and require six-figure annual commitments, cajeX has transparent per-seat pricing starting at $9.99/user/month, a permanent free tier with no credit card, and open standards throughout. No vendor lock-in. No proprietary diagram formats. No consultant-led implementations to start using it. Key features: - AI-powered architecture review against approved directives - Two-way AI pipeline: extracts candidate directives from standards, applies approved directives at review - Knowledge base supports PDF, Markdown, HTML, and plain-text ingestion - Approved directives lifecycle (draft → review → approve → enforce) with full traceability - Architecture sessions with configurable workflow templates (Governance Standard, Agile Sprint, Minimal Review) - Findings management with severity classification, AI confidence scoring, and remediation steps - Document management with versioning, backed by Cloudflare R2 object storage - Real-time compliance dashboards with leadership KPIs and drill-down analytics - Reports in Markdown / PDF with platform audit logs and GDPR request handling - Enterprise SSO via Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, SAML, SCIM 2.0 provisioning, and Single Logout - Per-workspace AI configuration with AES-GCM-256 encrypted credentials - Bring-Your-Own-Cloud — run the data plane in AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-prem - Open-standard webhooks (HMAC-signed, automatic retry, auto-disable) - Stripe-backed per-seat billing across Free, Basic, Pro, Team, and Enterprise tiers - Transparent pricing — free tier, no credit card, no mandatory sales calls

DecisionPen

DecisionPen is the architecture decision workspace built for the agentic era. Think of it as a conversational, evidence-linked intelligence engine for your enterprise architecture—blending structured EA entities with underlying unstructured documentation into a living, authoritative map. Why Traditional EA Tools Fail Classic EA tools die empty, then turn stale. Why? Manual Data Entry: Populating repositories is tedious and resource-heavy. Architect Burnout: EAs and Solution Architects (SAs) didn't train to be data clerks. Fragmented Truth: EAs live in rigid EA tools, while SAs work in Confluence, Word, and meeting transcripts. Institutional memory remains trapped in people's heads. How DecisionPen Fixes This DecisionPen automates baseline creation, unifies EA and SA workflows, and deploys deep research agents to answer critical architectural questions instantly. Key Capabilities Add Knowledge (Frictionless Ingestion): Input HLDs, PDFs, notes, or raw meeting transcripts. Describe systems in plain English and let AI incrementally model your evolving enterprise landscape after every interaction. Review (Human-in-the-Loop Control): AI extracts and proposes entities and relationships; architects simply review and approve—remaining the true stewards of record. Map (Metamodel-Aware Baseline): Maintain a live, shared landscape of applications, capabilities, and integrations. Fully aligned with LeanIX metamodel standards for seamless coexistence or migration. Ask (Agentic Research & Blast Radius): Interrogate your landscape in plain English (e.g., "What depends on Customer Payments Hub if we retire the legacy ledger?"). Get metamodel-grounded answers backed by direct document citations. Decide (Automated Artifacts): Generate HLDs, ADRs, solution blueprints, and migration packs as live byproducts of truth. Say goodbye to manual documentation. Who It's For CTOs & CIOs: Move fast and navigate technical change velocity without flying blind. Enterprise & Solution Architects: Replace failed manual inventory projects with a living baseline. Inherit instant context instead of doing document archaeology. Engineering Leads: Perform instant dependency and blast-radius due diligence before shipping major changes. The Wider Enterprise: Query institutional memory on demand via an intuitive conversational interface.
