What most banking software offers
Features, an implementation project and a maintenance contract.
Every change after go-live becomes a new request, a new quote and a new wait.
Banking platform
Bank in a BoxFifteen banking products, one control plane.
Core banking, card and ATM switching and thirteen standalone modules, with a control plane that builds them and keeps changing them — white-label software installed in the bank’s own data centre.
The problem
The real cost arrives after signing.
A bank doesn’t buy software that stays frozen. It buys the ability to change it — new products, new regulations, new channels.
Today every change is a negotiation. So banks stop asking, and their systems freeze.
What one change request turns into
- 01 Change request
- 02 Statement of work
- 03 Negotiation
- 04 Months of waiting
- 05 The bank stops asking
What Bank in a Box offers
Speed of change
The ability to change a banking system safely, whenever the bank needs to. That is what Bank in a Box is built around.
The licence is paid once. Change is paid for the life of the system.
Forge, the control plane
A control plane that makes change safe.
Forge is not a code factory. Every change request runs through a pipeline: it is staged on a copy, compiled and tested automatically, and reaches the source only if it passes.
-
Step 1
Lead
Reads the change request and plans the work, keeping it within the scope that was asked for.
-
Step 2
Architect
Decides where the change belongs in the existing system and which parts it may touch.
-
Step 3 · only when needed
Database
Prepares database changes, only when the request needs them.
-
Step 4
Backend
Writes the code for the change, following the system’s existing patterns.
-
Step 5
Verify
Compiles for real and runs the automated tests. If the build fails, the compiler errors go to Repair and the result comes back here.
Loop with Verify
Repair
Receives the real compiler errors, fixes the code and sends it back to Verify until it builds and the tests pass.
-
Step 6
Reviewer
Reviews the change before it is accepted, including whether the documentation was updated.
-
Result
Code ready
The change is promoted to the source and a release package is prepared.
Four safety properties
-
A failure leaves no trace
Work happens on a copy. If a change fails, the source is exactly as it was.
-
Existing issues are recorded first
A baseline is taken before any change, so only problems the change introduces can block it.
-
It learns from failures too
What went wrong in one change is kept and used in the next.
-
Documentation stays current
A change to core logic is rejected if the documentation was not updated with it.
One change, end to end
A small, real change, from the first check to a ready release package in about a minute.
Eight supported technologies
- Spring Boot
- Go
- Node / Express
- FastAPI
- Web
- React Native
- Flutter
- Android
Forge runs entirely inside the bank, language model included — nothing leaves the data centre.
- 01 Starting state recorded Done
- 02 Prepared on a copy Done
- 03 Compile Succeeded
- 04 Automated tests Passed
- 05 Applied to the system Done
- 06 Release package Ready
Three files changed, none outside the request’s scope. Compare that with months.
The portfolio
Three layers, fifteen products.
A core layer, standalone modules around it, and the control plane that builds and changes all of them. Each product can be bought and run on its own.

Module layer — each one standalone
- Originate
- Lend

- Shield
- Guard
- Report

- Insight
- Engage
- Identity
- Gateway

Core layer
- Core Core banking, conventional and sharia
- Switch Cards, ATMs and payment networks
Three rules every product follows
-
One product, one system
Each product has its own database, its own release and its own pipeline, so one can change without touching another.
-
Connected only through APIs
When Shield freezes an account, it calls the core over its API — and if that call fails, the account stays frozen.
-
Lives in the bank’s data centre
Built to run on-premise, even without an internet connection.
The fifteen products
Every product, and what it does.
Open any product to see the problems it solves, what it already does and who it is for.

Two ways to start
Replace the core, or add to it.
The two paths don’t compete. A bank can start with one module on its current core and move further later.
Path A
Replace the core
Core and Switch become the bank’s foundation, with the modules it chooses on top.
- A complete platform from one vendor
- Suits banks renewing their core system
Path B
Add modules to your core
Keep the existing core and attach the modules you need — Report, Shield, Collect, Treasury and others — through APIs.
- A smaller, quicker first step
- No change to the core you already run
Under the hood
Built on the hard parts of banking.
Writing code is no longer the hard part. Running change safely in systems that hold people’s money is.
-
Banking domain that can’t be improvised
Card messaging, chip cryptography, hardware key management, double-entry accounting and OJK compliance are built in from the start.

Safety engineering, not prompts
Staging on a copy, real compilation, baselines and automatic rollback decide whether a change is accepted — not a model’s confidence.
-
Fifteen products as a proving ground
Forge builds and changes every other product in the portfolio, so each change it makes feeds back into how it works.
-
On-premise by design
Everything, including the language model behind Forge, runs inside the bank’s own data centre.
Today’s language models can write banking code. What nobody has is the layer that makes those changes safe to run in systems that hold people’s money.
