RiffRenamed

Riff builds two kinds of things from a chat with its building assistant, the Riff agent. Apps are screens people open, such as dashboards, forms and portals. Agents are workers with a trigger (a schedule, an inbound email, a new ERP record) that do a defined job, such as chasing suppliers for unconfirmed purchase orders, and escalate what they can’t decide. For apps, the Riff agent writes a React and TypeScript frontend and a Python FastAPI backend on serverless PostgreSQL, shows it in a live preview, and keeps a task board of what it is doing; a code editor shows every file. **Deploy** publishes to username.riff.works/app-name after checks for the subdomain, permissions and basic security.

Each app has development and production environments with separate databases, environment variables and secrets, so a secret can point at a test ERP endpoint while building and the live one in production. What sets Riff apart from general app builders is its focus: native connectors for SAP S/4HANA, Oracle ERP Cloud, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Infor LN and M3, which call the ERP’s own business functions so its validation and audit apply; a shared Context library the agents learn from; and MCP access for Copilot, Claude and other agents. It is sold through demos and forward-deployed engineers rather than self-serve plans, and Riff says it is incentivized on the customer’s results rather than charging hours.
