Welcome to nullplatform!

Here you’ll find a quick introduction to working with and building on nullplatform.

These docs assume you’re already onboarded to nullplatform. If you’re not, reach out to us and we’ll help you get set up.

The platform​

Nullplatform provides dedicated dashboards to support different roles across your organization:

  • Development – For developers to manage and deploy applications.
  • Team Management – For admins to invite users and manage permissions within the organization.
  • Platform Settings – For DevOps and SecOps to configure infrastructure and operational settings.
  • Insights – For managers to get a clear view of application activity and operational patterns in your organization, using DORA metrics and KPIs.

Accessing your organization​

Log in to your organization’s portal at: https://<your-org-slug>.app.nullplatform.io.

Don’t have an account yet?

Ask a teammate or your manager to invite you. You can also check whether your organization supports logging in through an identity provider like Google, Okta, or another supported system.

Navigating your organization in nullplatform​

Nullplatform uses a simple hierarchy to organize applications and services:

  • Organization
    The top-level entity in nullplatform. Each customer has a single organization.

  • Account
    An organization can have multiple accounts. These are often used to separate business units or legal entities under a holding company. When you log in, you’re logged into a specific account, and you can switch accounts from the menu in the top-right corner.

  • Namespace
    A logical grouping for applications, usually representing a team or domain (for example, checkout or billing). The namespace is the main view you see after logging in.

  • Application
    A logical unit typically tied to a repository or, in the case of a monorepo, a specific folder within a repository.

  • Scope
    A scope defines the runtime environment where an application can be deployed. Common use cases include:

    • Regions: Separating traffic by geography, such as US, UK, Japan, or the rest of the world.
    • Read vs. write: Scaling applications using read/write segregation.
    • Production and testing: Creating environments for self-serve testing and QA.

AI-native features​

Nullplatform ships with AI-native features that go beyond dashboards and metrics. Ask a question, automate detection, or trigger a remediation across your organization, all without writing queries or navigating complex configuration.

AI assistant is a chat panel embedded directly in the console. Ask about your resources, investigate failures, and get ready-to-run CLI commands, all in context with whatever you're viewing.

Insights turns natural language into live dashboards. Ask a question and get a visual report instantly, backed by real platform data.

Action items surface issues worth acting on, like security vulnerabilities, stale deployments, and configuration drift, as tracked tasks in your application dashboard. Triage, defer, or resolve them, with optional AI-suggested fixes.

AI plugins bring platform operations into your terminal. Manage scopes, services, and action items through plain-language prompts in Claude Code, Factory AI, or Codex CLI.

How do I start?​

One of the best ways to learn nullplatform is to jump into a namespace (you can create one in just a few clicks) and create a new application using one of the available templates.

What if there’s no template for the language or application I want to build?

Nullplatform can run applications written in any language, as long as they can be containerized to run on server instances or supported by serverless cloud runtimes.

To use other technologies, you can edit the Dockerfile at the root of your repository and build images for additional languages. For serverless applications, you can adjust the scope settings to change the runtime.
