What are ready-made apps?
Ready-made apps are mature applications for tasks that many companies have, such as time tracking, customer management or reporting. They are often high-quality open source alternatives to expensive enterprise products.

Why run ready-made apps on Auftrieb?
If you run one of these apps yourselves, you need a server, backups, certificates and a sign-in that suits your company. On Auftrieb, this is already taken care of.
- Company sign-in: Sign-in runs through Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra. Most ready-made apps have their own accounts behind it, for example for roles.
- Backups: A backup is made every night, and you restore it directly on the app page.
- Your domain: The apps run on your own domain with automatic certificates.
- Versions and vulnerabilities: Auftrieb checks the versions in the catalogue regularly. All running apps are checked daily for known vulnerabilities in the packages they use, and findings appear on the app page.
- One catalogue for everything: Ready-made apps and apps you build yourselves are in the same catalogue. Teams request access there, and the owners of the app decide.
Servers and backups are located in Germany. You can read more on the Security page.
What can be reached from outside?
Ready-made apps also start as internal apps behind the company account. Only the part that must be reachable from outside is open, for example the newsletter sign-up or a link for signing.
What to keep in mind with ready-made apps
- What an app can do is decided by the project behind it. So check beforehand whether it covers your task.
- You connect your systems through their interface.
- Licence terms differ from app to app.
- For newsletters with Listmonk or Ghost, you need your own email provider.
Which app would you like to see?
We are glad to take your suggestions. Write to info@auftrieb.cloud and tell us which app you are missing in the catalogue. We are glad to review every suggestion.
Can we use other open source apps?
Yes. Many other open source apps can be brought in with your AI tool: you give it the app's GitHub link, and Auftrieb starts it in the Test version. Web apps that keep their data in a database work best. For larger apps or apps with several services, we are glad to support you.
These apps run like apps you build yourselves: internal behind company sign-in, with Test and Live and nightly backups of the database. You bring in new versions with your AI tool.
What if no ready-made app fits?
In that case, you build your own app with Claude or Codex, and it runs alongside the ready-made apps.
