Builds apps and agents for ERP-heavy companies, with an agent that plans, codes, tests and deploys from one workspace.

## Overview

Riff, formerly Databutton, is a platform for building apps and agents on top of ERP systems such as Infor, SAP, Dynamics and Oracle. Its users are procurement and operations staff rather than engineers.

The Riff agent plans tasks, edits code, runs tests and deploys from a single workspace. Apps have a React frontend and a Python backend, and the workspace includes a code editor, npm and pip packages and a live preview.

An IT Control Plane governs everything built on Riff, with SSO, named actions per agent, per-system switches and EU inference.

**Who it is for:** Procurement and operations teams at companies running ERP systems.
