Internal tools, built as parts
Internal Ops is how IT teams build internal tools as small, replaceable parts instead of one big platform. Each workflow runs as an assembly line of steps your team writes as code, on a worker you run. Each system of record holds one kind of data and has its own API.
For CIOs and the IT teams who build internal workflows. Usage-based pricing, no per-seat plans; rates aren’t published yet.
How it works
Most internal tools are a mix of work that moves and data that stays. Internal Ops builds each as its own small part.
Work that moves
Each workflow is an assembly line: a few stations, each running steps your team writes as code, on a worker you run. Every run is recorded, and failed work is kept with its error until someone fixes it.
Data that stays
Each system of record holds one kind of data, in its own app with its own API. Workflows read from and write to them. Replace one without touching the others.
Why parts
| Question | One internal-tools platform | Internal Ops |
|---|---|---|
| Where does the workflow logic live? | In the platform’s builder | In code, in your team’s Git repo |
| Where does the work run? | Wherever the platform runs it | On a worker you run, next to your data |
| What happened on Tuesday’s run? | Whatever the platform logs | A work record for every run, with each step’s output |
| What happens to work that fails? | Whatever the platform does with it | It stays in a failed bin with its error until fixed |
| Changing one part | On the platform’s terms | Replace one workflow or one system on its own |

FinOpsBricks is finance built as parts: separate systems of record for Statements, Transactions and the Ledger, each with its own app and API, and finance workflows on the same engine. Internal Ops is the same approach for the rest of the back office.

Every workflow runs on Assembly Line. Your team starts from an open-source worker template, writes steps in Node.js, runs them on their own machine, and lets coding agents help.

Internal Ops is how IT teams build internal tools as small, replaceable parts instead of one big platform: workflows that run as assembly lines of code steps on your own worker, and small systems of record, each with its own API.
CIOs and heads of IT whose back office runs on spreadsheets, email and a platform nobody can change, and the IT teams who build and run the workflows.
Pricing is usage-based, with no per-seat plans. Rates aren’t published yet.
No. Your IT team writes each step as code, in a Git repo started from an open-source template. Coding agents such as Claude Code can write and debug steps with them.
Workflows run on a worker your team runs, on your machine or server, so your data and your credentials for other systems stay there. The Orchestrator schedules runs and keeps a record of each one.
The engine (Assembly Line), the open-source worker template and CLIs, and the finance systems of record in FinOpsBricks. The example workflows on this page were built for specific teams and aren’t packaged as templates yet.
Assembly Line is the engine every workflow runs on. FinOpsBricks is finance built this way. Internal Ops is the same approach for the rest of the back office.
