Low-Code Apps Built for Long-Term Platform Ownership

Mergen designs custom applications in App Engine Studio with the rigor of pro-code development, including source control, testing, and monitoring. The result is a low-code surface that citizen developers can extend, built on a back end the platform team can govern.

Why Custom apps
Outperform Point Solutions

Same Fabric

One Identity, One Data Model

Custom applications on the Now Platform share identity, CMDB, and reporting with the rest of the platform, eliminating the need for separate SSO integration, orphaned data, or isolated reporting.

Why Now Platform

Faster to First Use

Weeks, Not Quarters

App Engine Studio and Workflow Studio compress build time, with most applications reaching pilot within six to eight weeks.

Our Velocity

Lower TCO

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

Custom applications require no new infrastructure, no separate licensing, and no additional vendor support contract, with total cost of ownership measured at approximately 40 percent below equivalent bespoke builds.

TCO Modelling

Engineered, Not Assembled

Tested, Observable & Resilient

Mergen treats custom applications as production engineering, incorporating source control, automated testing, error budgets, and operational runbooks, so citizen developers can extend them safely.
