xappido nova · our system

The system behind our platforms and customer portals.

xappido nova is our own development ecosystem: with it we plan, build, secure and operate digital solutions, all from one source.

Why nova exists

Deliver big without becoming big.

Instead of growing through sheer numbers, we multiplied our development capacity through the deliberate use of AI. That lets us deliver the firepower of a large partner with the closeness and speed of a small one.

01

Focused

Direct lines, one point of contact, instead of coordinating across many levels.

02

AI as leverage

AI multiplies the team’s firepower, with people checking the results.

03

Powerful

Large, process-critical platform projects, manageable for a focused team.

Five building blocks, one cycle.

This is how a solution takes shape: nova Hub plans and passes the job to nova Bench. nova Bench builds the complete solution from building blocks on the basis of nova Core, and nova ID seals it. The finished solution runs live, and what operation reveals flows back into the planning.

nova Hub plans and passes the job to nova Bench.

nova Bench builds block by block on the basis of nova Core.

nova ID seals it: one secure identity, clean separation.

The solution is live, and what operation reveals flows back into the planning.

Drilldown

Every building block has a job.

Plan

nova Hub: the control centre

The control centre: projects, teams and work in one place. You can see where your project stands at any time.

Build

nova Bench: the workbench

The workbench: this is where your solution takes shape — faster thanks to AI, checked by people before anything goes live.

Foundation

nova Core: the foundation

The foundation: sign-in, billing and tenants are solved. We start with your domain, not from scratch.

Secure

nova ID: the key

The key: one secure sign-in across everything, with your data cleanly separated.

Operate

Operation

Your solution runs, is monitored and developed further. The launch is the beginning, not the end.

The proof

At work under our solutions since 2014.

2014 today

nova Core, the portal core, carries our customer portals and our own products, from the employee passes at Zurich Airport through the transport portal for Schöni to VisualNumbers. Used daily, checked continuously, extended constantly.

The technology in detail

For those who look closer.

The modules of the portal core by category: switch on what your processes need. If no module fits, we build a new one and attach it to the core.

Core modules: secure operation, from the start

Authentication & authorisation OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect as standard: a clean separation between proving identity and checking permissions.
Permissions, roles & features A granular permission system with groups, roles and tenant boundaries, configurable per project.
Multi-user capability One login for several tenants, several users per tenant. Flexibly configurable.
User profile & account Users manage their own account: profile, password change, profile picture and personal access tokens.

Extensions: switch on what your processes need

Single sign-on & identity Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Keycloak and AGOV via SAML 2.0/OIDC. Plus social login and MFA including WebAuthn/FIDO2.
Multi-tenancy Complete data isolation per tenant, so several organisations can work securely in a single solution.
Onboarding Self-service registration or invitation, including provisioning of tenants and permissions.
Subscriptions & billing Subscriptions with feature control and automatic billing in more than 135 currencies.
Document & email output Generate and send emails, messages and PDF documents from templates. Multi-channel via email, SMS, push and in-app.
Document management Store, version and manage files with metadata, malware scanning included.
Integrations & REST API A REST API with OpenAPI 3.0 and a pub/sub architecture: open integration points for third-party systems.
Role management Your own roles with any set of permissions, globally or per tenant.
White labelling & theming Your own colour scheme, logo and appearance per tenant: the application in a look your users already know.
Multilingualism Interface and content translatable into more than 40 languages.

Enterprise functions

Workflow designer Multi-step workflows and forms by drag and drop, with validation, approvals and versioning.
Audit trail & security Tracking of every action in line with the Swiss FADP and the GDPR, on audited infrastructure with guaranteed updates.

Domain modules: industry-specific, expanded continuously

Order entry & address lookup Efficient order entry with integrated company and address lookup.
Track & trace Transport information through a simple, secure link, built for logistics.
