Clients are terrified of "Developer Jail"—that place where you have to pay a consultant $100 just to change the subject line of an email.

We hate Developer Jail too. It’s boring work for us and expensive for you.

The "Low-Code" Promise

A Factor Lab automation is visual. It looks like a flowchart. This means that, yes, non-technical people can edit it. But there are rules.

How We Build for Handoff

We structure our workflows so the complicated logic (the "don't touch this" stuff) is separate from the content (the "please edit this" stuff).

  • Need to change the text of a Slack alert? Go ahead.
  • Need to change the authentication protocol for the API? Maybe call us.

We provide the training wheels so you can drive your own automation—without driving it off a cliff.
