# Every piece of software your business needs, from one platform.

Core is a full no-code platform. You use it to build your order processing, your stock control, your invoicing and your customer portal, as building blocks you connect rather than code you write.

**studio.rual.nl · Flow Editor**

This is what it actually looks like. Pick blocks, connect them, put them live: your application takes shape here, and this is where you change it later too.

- `webshop.order` — trigger · new order

- `voorraad.check` — reserves 3 order lines

- `wms.picklijst` — to station 4 in the warehouse

- `exact.factuur` — posts straight into Exact Online

- `mail.tracktrace` — sends the customer a track & trace

**execution · order #29,107**

- `00:00.000` webshop.order · order #29,107 received

- `+180 ns` voorraad.check · 3 lines reserved

- `+1.2 µs` wms.picklijst · station 4 instructed

- `+2.1 µs` exact.factuur · posted in Exact Online

- `+0.4 ms` mail.tracktrace · customer notified

- `✓ done` flow executed · 6 blocks in 0.4 ms

avg. per block: 214 ns

## In plain language: how it works

Three layers, in this order. Once you have seen it, you see it everywhere.

1. **Your data lives in tables** — Orders, customers, stock, machines: everything gets its own table, laid out the way you already picture it. No database knowledge required.
2. **Flows do the work** — A flow is a series of blocks: an order comes in, check the stock, create the invoice, print the label. You decide the steps, Core runs them, day and night.
3. **Screens for your people** — On that same data you build the screens: a picking screen for the warehouse, a dashboard for the office, a portal for your customers. Web and mobile.

And when your process changes next month? You drag a block into place and it is live. No release cycle, no queue at a software vendor.

## Faster than your database can blink.

Core is not a layer on top of someone else’s cloud. We wrote the engine ourselves, in a compiled systems language, and it runs blocks in nanoseconds. That is why a flow with dozens of steps finishes in under a millisecond, and why a single environment handles millions of automations a month.

You will not notice that in a benchmark. You notice it in a picking screen that never waits and a sorting line that never stalls. Below is a measurement on a production cluster. For comparison: a blink of an eye takes 100,000,000 nanoseconds.

- **reading a field from a record** — 31 ns

- **running a calculation** — 64 ns

- **saving a record, with audit log** — 2.4 µs

- **a full order flow, 40 blocks** — 0.4 ms

## What is in that monthly price?

A Core licence does not replace one program, it replaces the entire stack underneath it. This is what you never arrange yourself again.

- **Hosting, DevOps and monitoring** — Dutch data centres, automatic migration when something fails, 99.9% uptime over the last 5 years. None of it lands on your desk.

- **Security that is simply on** — Threat protection, encryption, audit logs and hourly backups. Built into every environment from day one.

- **Daily updates, zero maintenance** — We maintain the platform codebase. Your application is assembled from blocks, so it inherits every improvement without a rebuild and without technical debt.

- **Connections to your whole stack** — Exact, Mollie, Floriday, PostNL, Anthropic and dozens more, as ready-made blocks. Plus webhooks and APIs for everything else.

Put that next to an in-house development team, servers, security tooling and an integration partner. Licences from € 515 a month.

- **10M+** daily end users

- **99.9%** uptime over 5 years

## Further into Core

Where you build, what you build with, and where it runs.

- **[Studio](https://rual.nl/en/studio)** — The workshop around the platform: together in the same flow, with the block library, comments and deploy management.

- **[The Flow Editor](https://rual.nl/en/visual-editor)** — The canvas itself. Connect blocks, watch real data run through them and roll back any version.

- **[Hosting](https://rual.nl/en/hosting)** — Dutch data centres, racks across several floors and networks, automatic migration when something goes down.

## See the Flow Editor live, with your own process in it.

In a one-hour demo we build a first flow for your operation. Actually build it, not show slides.
