# Welcome to Directual [Directual](http://directual.com/) is a **full-stack no-code/low-code platform**. You can build the whole stack here — backend, frontend, automations, APIs, and AI features — without drowning in boilerplate code. *** ### Why Directual? Other no-code tools are fine for prototypes, but they quickly hit a ceiling. Directual is built for growth: * **Full-stack** — backend + frontend in one platform. * **Scalable** — from weekend MVPs to enterprise-level systems. * **AI-ready** — built-in vector DB, embeddings, RAG pipelines, and agents. You don’t have to switch platforms when your app grows. Directual is designed to scale with you. *** ### Who is it for? * **Business teams** — automate workflows, launch dashboards, and run internal apps without waiting on IT. * **Studios & freelancers** — our favorite partners. Build apps for clients, run agency-style businesses, and earn through our affiliate program while delivering real value. * **Developers** — skip the boring parts like infrastructure, DevOps, API setup, and security — all of that comes out of the box. Focus on building real logic and value instead of plumbing. * **Solopreneurs** — ship products fast, from Telegram Mini Apps to full SaaS. * **Enterprises** — handle serious workloads with our **NoSQL database** that can store millions of records, plus a **vector database** for semantic search and AI features. Deploy on SaaS, in a private cloud, or fully on-premise — whatever fits your infrastructure needs. *** ### Core concepts Directual is built around four key elements: * **Database** — flexible NoSQL storage for millions of records, with a built-in **vector DB** for semantic queries and AI-driven features. * **API** — a powerful builder with REST, GraphQL, and webhooks to connect your app with any system. Comes with advanced role-based access, rich filtering and sorting, even synchronous logic on any endpoint (a rare feature), plus Swagger docs out of the box. * **Scenarios** — the heart of the platform. A universal, abstract workflow engine — not clunky BPMN. Run thousands of events in real time or schedule logic to fire automatically. Visual, powerful, and flexible for any business process or integration. * **UI builder** — not a dumb drag-and-drop, but a sharp tool tailored for internal apps. Work with big components like forms, tables, and cards that configure quickly, with role-based access models easy to apply. Build web apps, dashboards, and Telegram Mini Apps fast and clean. *** ### What can you build? * **Internal business apps** — CRMs, dashboards, employee portals, learning management systems, service desks, and more — all integrated with your IT stack. * **Telegram Mini Apps** — lightweight apps inside Telegram, reaching hundreds of millions of users. Supports payments, deep integrations, and of course bots are first-class citizens too. * **AI assistants & RAG systems** — from knowledge-based chatbots to automation agents. * **Enterprise solutions** — robust apps with authentication, role-based access, APIs, and integrations. *** {% hint style="success" %} **In short:** Directual is where **no-code meets full-stack power**. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
