Overview
What is WorkApps?
WorkApps is a publishing platform for internal browser-based tools. Teams use AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor to build the exact tool they need — margin calculators, deal trackers, onboarding checklists, approval workflows, forecast dashboards — then upload the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files to WorkApps. In under 60 seconds, the tool gets a secure, versioned URL the entire team can access. No servers to configure, no DevOps pipeline to set up, no IT ticket to file. WorkApps solves the "last mile" problem: the gap between a working prototype on one person's laptop and a tool the whole team can use. It handles hosting, authentication, version control, and team permissions out of the box. Per-app pricing starts at $59/app/month for stateless tools and $119/app/month for workflow tools, with unlimited users on every plan and no per-seat fees. Enterprise and Compliance add-ons provide SSO, role-based access control, and audit logging for regulated industries.

Who is WorkApps for?
WorkApps is built for non-technical business leaders — Directors, VPs, and team leads at mid-market companies (50–500 employees) — who build or commission internal tools but don't have the infrastructure to deploy and share them.
Typical users include:
- Sales leaders who built margin calculators and deal scoring tools with AI but can't share them beyond their own laptop.
- Finance teams who need budget dashboards and approval workflows accessible to the whole department.
- Operations managers who have onboarding checklists and process tools scattered across Google Docs and shared drives.
- IT directors who get 5+ requests per month to "put this tool somewhere" and need a self-serve solution that still gives them governance.
What problem does WorkApps solve?
AI has made it fast to build internal tools. A sales director can describe a margin calculator and have working code in 20 minutes. But the "last mile" — getting from a working prototype on one laptop to a tool the whole team can use — remains hard.
Deploying an internal tool traditionally requires hosting, authentication, permissions, secret management, and reliability engineering. That turns a 20-minute build into a multi-week IT project — or, more often, a tool that simply never ships.
WorkApps eliminates that gap. Upload your files, click publish, share the URL. The tool is live, secure, and versioned.
How does WorkApps work?
- Sign in. Create a free account — no setup or configuration.
- Upload your files. Drop in a ZIP, a folder, or individual HTML/CSS/JS files. React, Vue, vanilla JS — anything that runs in a browser.
- Click publish. Your tool gets a secure URL and appears in your team dashboard instantly. Share the link — your team can start using it immediately.
Updates work the same way: upload new files, click publish. Existing bookmarks stay valid. Previous versions are retained for rollback.
How is WorkApps different from other tools?
There are plenty of ways to build an internal tool and plenty of ways to deploy code. WorkApps doesn't do either of those things. It solves what comes after you build — getting a working tool off one person's laptop and into the hands of the team that needs it, with authentication, permissions, versioning, and governance from day one.
Even after you build or deploy a tool, you still need to:
- Put it behind authentication so only your team can access it
- Manage who has access — invite users, assign roles, revoke when people leave
- Track who used it and when — for accountability, compliance, or just to know it's being adopted
- Version it so you can push updates safely and roll back if something breaks
- Give your team one place to find every tool instead of scattered links in Slack and email
- Meet compliance requirements — audit logs, data isolation, retention policies
Most teams solve this with a patchwork of shared links, spreadsheet trackers, and manual access requests. WorkApps handles all of it out of the box.
Authentication & access control
Every tool is private by default. Team members sign in with a magic link or SSO — no passwords. You control who sees each tool with per-app roles (Viewer, Editor, Admin) and can restrict guest access to approved email domains.
Most alternatives leave tools publicly accessible or require you to build your own authentication layer.
Team dashboard
Every published tool appears in a searchable directory your whole team can access. No more "where's that calculator?" messages. New team members find everything they need on day one.
Other approaches scatter tools across shared drives, bookmarks, and chat threads that new hires will never find.
Built-in versioning
Every publish creates a new version. Roll back instantly if an update breaks something. Existing bookmarks always point to the latest version. No Git, no CLI, no deployment pipeline required.
File-sharing tools overwrite previous versions. Developer platforms require technical version control most teams can't use.
Activity logging & compliance
See who accessed which tool, when. Activity logs are retained for 90 days by default, up to 7 years with the Compliance add-on. Tamper-proof audit logs and signed exports give regulated industries the paper trail they need.
Most tools have no access logging at all. Those that do rarely offer the retention and integrity guarantees that regulated industries require.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need technical experience to use WorkApps?
No. WorkApps is designed for non-technical users. If you can drag and drop files, you can publish a tool. There's no CLI, no Git, and no build commands involved.
What file types does WorkApps support?
Any browser-compatible files: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, fonts, JSON, and more. Frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte work as long as they're pre-built to static files.
Can I use WorkApps for customer-facing tools?
WorkApps is designed for internal tools — tools used by your team, not your customers. All published tools are authenticated by default.
How is WorkApps different from developer hosting platforms?
Developer platforms require Git, CLI tools, and build configurations — and the tools you deploy through them are typically public by default with no built-in authentication, team management, or access control. WorkApps is drag-and-drop, private by default, and includes authentication, per-app permissions, a team dashboard, and activity logging out of the box. Your VP of Sales can use it without touching a terminal.
Is there a free plan?
WorkApps offers a 14-day free trial. A payment method is required when you publish your first app, not when you create an account.
