Governing shadow development

Your employees already code with AI. Their apps can run on your servers, properly.

KODE takes the applications built with Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, brings them up to your company's standards and deploys them on your own servers.

30 minutes, free, no commitment. Tell us where your applications stand and we'll show you KODE on a case close to yours. We'll call you back within 24 hours.

1 min 07, with music, works without sound. On-screen text in French.

The situation

These applications already exist. The real question is where they run.

For IT

Now that Claude Code, Codex and Cursor are within everyone's reach, your business teams build their own tools. A project portfolio tracker, a budget variance calculator, an HR dashboard. They are useful, so they stay.

What you find when you look under the hood:

  • keys and passwords written in plain text in the code;
  • a database in a file on a laptop, with no backup;
  • no link to company accounts: anyone with the link gets in;
  • personal or financial data, outside any register;
  • no one to take over the tool when its author goes on leave.

Banning them does not make them go away. Rewriting them costs several weeks of contractor time per application.

For the user

You built an application that saves your team hours. It runs on your PC. Colleagues ask you for a link and you hesitate. When your computer is off, it stops working.

And you know that the day IT finds out about it, the conversation may be awkward.

You don't want to become a full-time developer. You want your tool to be official, to run without you, and to keep improving it.

How it works

Four steps, and the author never has to touch the code again.

  1. You upload the application

    The author uploads the application folder as a zip. Their browser strips out passwords, keys and data files before anything is sent. They see the report and decide whether it goes.

  2. KODE brings it up to standard

    Sign-in with the company's Microsoft account, a real database, secrets moved out of the code, backups, documentation. Tests first lock in what already works: it has to keep working.

  3. Your IT department decides

    A clear summary, the risks found, and a recommendation already prepared for each decision. A few clicks, and IT approves the go-live.

  4. The application runs on your premises

    On your servers, behind the company's Microsoft sign-in. The author gets an email when it is ready. After that, they write what they want changed, and KODE does it.

For IT

You stay in control. Really.

Security

  • Secrets are removed in the author's browser, before upload.
  • Every application sits behind your company's Microsoft sign-in. Access is managed through groups that you create.
  • The report rates risks along four axes. Anything that cannot be assessed shows in grey, never in green.

Your data stays with you

  • Applications run on your servers, on your premises or in your own hosting account. KALIFY hosts neither your applications nor their data.
  • No inbound connection from us: your server fetches the updates.
  • No global admin rights, no VPN, no open port, no writes to your directory.

Your decisions

  • Each decision is a card with a pre-selected recommendation, which you confirm or change.
  • Everything is logged: who, what, when.
  • An application too tangled to take over? KODE says so, and proposes how to split it.

Every change approved

  • Nothing goes live without your approval, including changes requested later.
  • Roll back to the previous version in one click.
  • Ready-made exports for your CISO and DPO: secrets (without their values), permissions, approval log.
For the person who built the app

Your tool becomes official. And you stay in charge.

It becomes official

No more hiding it or sharing a makeshift link. IT has approved it.

It runs without you

Your PC can be off, you can go on holiday: the team keeps using it.

Familiar sign-in

Colleagues sign in with their company account. No extra password.

You keep improving it

You write what you want changed, in plain language. KODE rephrases it, you confirm, and you follow progress.

The publisher

KODE is built by people who have run an IT department.

For years, KALIFY has helped IT departments deal with shadow development: first Excel, then Power Apps, and now AI-generated applications. KODE is the natural next step for this work.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us before getting started.

Is it secure?
Passwords and keys are removed in the author's browser before anything is sent, then checked again on arrival. Every application sits behind your company's Microsoft sign-in. KODE asks for no global admin rights, no VPN and no open port on your servers.
“AI is going to break my application.”
Before changing anything, KODE writes tests that describe what the application does today. No change is merged if any of those tests fails. IT approves every go-live, and rolling back to the previous version takes one click. Something not right afterwards? You report it in one sentence.
Does our data go to KALIFY?
Data files are removed from the zip in your browser: the code leaves without them. If you want to bring over existing data (a database, a spreadsheet), the author sends it separately, encrypted, for the migration only. It is loaded into the database on your server, a certificate proves everything arrived (counts and checksums), and then the encrypted copy is deleted. From then on, the application and its data live on your servers, not at KALIFY.
Who sees our code?
The code, without its secrets or data, is placed in a private repository and worked on by KODE's agents. They rely on Anthropic's Claude models, used under business terms where your content is not used to train the models. Every change goes through tests and your approval before going live.
How much does it cost?
€3,000 excl. VAT for setup, first application included. Then €990 excl. VAT per additional application taken over, and €290 excl. VAT per application per year, excluding AI supplied by KALIFY. And if an application is not live within 30 days, you get your money back for it.
How long does it take?
Your server is installed once, with your team, using a script that checks the prerequisites. After that, the author has nothing else to do: they get an email when their application is ready. Each IT decision takes a few clicks, with a recommendation already prepared. And if an application is not live within 30 days of its takeover, you get your money back for it.
Is it Microsoft-only?
For sign-in, yes: KODE relies on the company's Microsoft account (Entra ID). Applications run on a Linux server, on your premises or in your own hosting account. GitHub is supported today; Azure DevOps is planned.
Can the author keep coding on it?
No, and that is deliberate. After the takeover, changes go through written requests in plain language, carried out by KODE and approved by your IT department. That is what keeps the application up to standard over time.
Will our employees need to install anything?
No. Everything happens in the browser.
Pricing

Clear pricing. Your first application is free.

Setup

€3,000 excl. VAT, one-off

  • KODE installed on your server, with your team
  • Your first application taken over and put live, free
  • Company Microsoft sign-in, group-based access
  • IT portal, exports for your CISO and DPO

Each additional application

€990 excl. VAT per takeover

  • Brought up to standard, with tests that lock in what works
  • Data migration with certificate
  • Deployed on your servers, after your approval

Then, per application

€290 excl. VAT per year

Excluding AI supplied by KALIFY: we'll cover this during the demo.

  • Application monitoring and verified backups
  • Security updates
  • Changes requested in plain language
Live or refunded

If an application is not live on your server within 30 days of its takeover, you get your money back for it, provided your IT department made its decisions within 5 working days.

Example: 5 applications in the first year = €3,000 + 4 × €990 + 5 × €290 = €8,410 excl. VAT, whereas a takeover by a contractor often costs €10,000 to €17,000 per application.

Your teams have already done half the work.
