Strategic Value

The Betty Blocks difference

With Betty Blocks, organizations can deliver secure vibe-coded applications. Platform-vetted components help extend legacy systems without risk, and its Betty Open features help the business stay free from vendor lock-in. As the only AI-based low-code platform designed for mid-to-large organizations, it combines speed, governance, and openness to drive future-proof innovation.

Cloud-based

As a 100% cloud-based platform, Betty Blocks requires absolutely no downloads or user updates. No plug-ins, no versioning updates- all you need is an internet connection.

Security

Betty Blocks is the first, and only, no-code platform to be ISO27001 certified. In addition, since all customers automatically work from the same, and most updated, version of the platform, the most demanding customer sets the bar for platform security--and all users benefit from the same protections.

No updates

Betty Blocks performs platform updates automatically, while all user applications are running. Because there is no versioning, users are always accessing the most current version and never have to migrate data.

Reusability

With the Blocks Store, users can install pre-configured blocks of Webservices and UI Components with one click, based on an architecture of micro-apps. Users can also share these components and make them available to all users in their organization, essentially saving and reusing whole blocks of applications across multiple apps.
