Core Platform

Pipeline Automation

From Jira ticket to merged PR — fully automated.

KnownForge reads your backlog, drafts a Technical Design Document, runs quality checks, generates Salesforce components, validates against your org, auto-fixes errors, deploys, commits, and opens a GitHub PR. Hands-free mode lets the pipeline run end-to-end without manual intervention.

  • Works with Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, and Azure DevOps
  • AI-generated Technical Design Document with human approval gate
  • Multi-layered quality checks before anything touches your org
  • Intelligent auto-fix loop that understands your business process context
  • Hands-free mode — full pipeline without manual steps
  • Package manifest built automatically from your source files
  • Git branch, commit, and GitHub PR created in one click

A team of 4 devs shipping 20 stories/month saves ~480 hours of manual work annually — equivalent to 3 full months of engineering time.

Sync & Search

Metadata Intelligence

Complete visibility into every component in your org.

Smart sync pulls only what changed since the last run, keeping your org catalogue fresh without burning API limits. Every custom field, flow, trigger, layout, and permission set — indexed, searchable, and browsable with full source code retrieval in the browser. After every deploy, downstream insights auto-refresh so the picture is always current.

  • 150+ metadata types tracked and searchable automatically
  • Smart incremental sync — only fetches what actually changed
  • Browse any component's source code or XML directly in-browser
  • Instant dependency lookup — 'where is this field used?' in under a second
  • Relationship diagrams generated from live org data
  • Auto-refreshes intelligence the moment you deploy — never out of date
  • Versioned snapshots for rollback context and change tracking

Eliminate the 1–2 hours per sprint your team spends manually investigating 'what's in the org'. Full org picture available in seconds, and it stays current automatically.

Safety

Impact Analysis

Know the blast radius before you touch anything.

Before any developer changes a field, deletes a flow, or renames an Apex class, KnownForge shows every component that depends on it — across flows, triggers, validation rules, page layouts, reports, permission sets, and more. Each component shows which business process owns it, and AI risk narratives draw on both your codebase patterns and live process context.

  • Instant dependency graph — every reference mapped in under a second
  • AI risk narratives that understand your business processes and code patterns
  • Business Process badge on every component — see what owns each piece
  • Stale-narrative alerts when underlying components change
  • Visual blast radius across all component types
  • Built into the deploy approval flow — no extra steps

One avoided production incident pays for KnownForge for a year. Impact analysis is your safety net on every single deploy.

Org Health Scoring

An A–F report card for your Salesforce org.

Automated health scoring across six dimensions: code coverage, automation density, permission set hygiene, field proliferation, API version currency, and flow complexity. Spot technical debt before it becomes a crisis. Auto-create remediation stories directly in your backlog.

  • A–F grade across 6 health dimensions
  • Tracks coverage, automation density, and permission hygiene
  • AI-written tech debt stories, created in your backlog in 1 click
  • Historical trend tracking — see improvement over time
  • Team-level breakdown for admins and architects

Teams that track and address org health consistently ship 40% faster after 6 months. The health score tells you where to invest your technical debt budget.

Knowledge

Business Process Registry

Register once. Answer anything. Forever.

Name the critical business processes in your org — CPQ, Field Service, Case Management, Partner Portals. KnownForge profiles every related object, automation, flow, and trigger across multiple objects in one shot, generates a living knowledge document, and auto-refreshes it whenever you deploy changes that touch those objects. Search across both your processes and your codebase to find anything in seconds.

  • Multi-object support — primary + related objects in one process
  • Interactive automation flow diagram showing how everything connects
  • Plain-English Q&A for product owners and PMs — no code knowledge needed
  • Semantic code search — find work that has touched a process across your whole repo
  • Process-pack freshness signal so knowledge never goes stale silently
  • Automatically refreshes when deploys touch linked objects
  • Tracks every deployed story per process — full history at a glance

Stop paying engineers to answer 'how does CPQ work?' for the fifth time. Register it once and every stakeholder — PM, QA, business owner — gets accurate answers instantly.

AI Engine

AI Code Generation

From TDD to production-ready Salesforce code.

KnownForge's AI reads your approved Technical Design Document, draws on patterns from your existing repository, understands your org's current automations, and generates production-quality Apex classes, triggers, LWC components, flows, validation rules, and 15+ other metadata types. It knows what already exists and extends it — never creates duplicates.

  • Design-driven — AI follows the approved TDD, never guesses
  • Org-aware — extends your existing codebase using your patterns and conventions
  • Business-process aware — knows which automations already fire on your objects
  • Smart conflict detection — auto-corrects 'create new' to 'modify existing'
  • Auto-detects missing dependencies and generates them automatically
  • Generates all component types in parallel for maximum speed
  • Gets smarter over time — learns from your feedback and corrections

A mid-level dev spends 4-6 hours hand-coding a standard Apex + LWC story. KnownForge generates, validates, and fixes it in under 10 minutes — and it comes with tests.

Quality Gate

Smart Validation & Fix

Catch errors before Salesforce does — fix them the way your team would.

A proprietary pre-validation engine checks every generated file before it touches your org. It auto-fixes common issues instantly, catches structural errors that would fail deployment, and the AI fixer now draws on your business process context, existing automations, and codebase patterns so the fix matches how your team writes code.

  • Instant pre-validation — catches syntax, structure, and reference errors
  • Auto-fix engine — resolves common issues without AI or round-trips
  • AI fixer aware of your business processes, existing automations, and code patterns
  • Self-learning — remembers past errors and prevents them proactively
  • Detects missing dependencies across all metadata types automatically
  • Real-time deployment progress with live component tracking
  • Continuous improvement — every deployment makes the system smarter

Each Salesforce validation round-trip takes 30-60 seconds. Catching 80% of errors instantly saves 5-10 minutes per fix cycle — and the system gets smarter with every run.

Always-On AI

KnownForge AI Assistant

A context-aware assistant on every page, with citations and one-click actions.

An always-available AI panel that adapts to whatever page you're on — story pipeline, schema, business process, impact analysis, deployment history, or org overview. It reads your live org context, cites real components and processes, surfaces proactive warnings, and offers one-click actions to jump straight to what it's referencing. Your conversation persists as you navigate.

  • Adapts automatically to your current page — no copy-pasting context
  • Citations link to the real components, processes, and stories it mentions
  • Proactive warnings — stale syncs, missing indexes, out-of-date process docs
  • One-click action chips — open a component, jump to a process, view a story
  • Continuous conversation across pages — no lost context as you navigate
  • Context-aware starter questions per page so you know what to ask
  • Powered by your choice of AI provider — bring your own key or use ours

Eliminate the 'screenshot + Slack + paste-into-ChatGPT' loop. Every developer, admin, and PM gets a Salesforce-aware copilot that already knows the org they're working on.

Compliance

SOX Compliance

Production-only audit capture with multi-year retention — built in.

Designate any production org as SOX-relevant in one click. KnownForge automatically captures Setup Audit Trail and Login History on schedule, archives them with multi-year retention, and seeds the standard SOX-tracked field registry so auditors see the right fields out of the box. Sandboxes are blocked from SOX mode by design — no accidental cross-contamination.

  • Production-only by design — sandboxes can't be flipped into SOX mode
  • Automatic Setup Audit Trail archive on a schedule
  • Login History captured per org with tamper-evident storage
  • Multi-year retention with automatic cold-storage transition
  • Standard SOX field registry seeded on org designation
  • Per-tenant feature gate — turn SOX mode on for the orgs that need it
  • Audit-grade storage that never persists raw field values you don't want stored

Manual SOX evidence collection runs 40+ hours per audit cycle per org. Automated capture + retention turns that into a one-page export.
