Who We Work With

Partners Who Run on Trust Runtime

Trust Runtime is just a server. It turns business intent into running applications through files, events, and recipes. We partner with the people who put it to work.

Every collaboration starts with your domain. We map it to Trust Recipes, run it on Trust Runtime, persist it through Trust Fabric, and evolve it inside Trust Factory.

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."

Henry David Thoreau 1817 – 1862

What Trust Runtime Means for You

Each partner brings different demands. Here is how Trust Runtime, Fabric, Recipes, and Factory show up for each of them.

01

Frontend Agencies

You craft the experience. Trust Runtime executes beneath it.

Your clients expect pixel-perfect interfaces. They also expect a backend that just runs. Trust Runtime is just a server: it executes the recipes that describe your client's business, so you can stay focused on the experience.

Your advantage

Every client project ships with Trust Runtime and Trust Fabric from day one. No backend hiring, no infrastructure debates. You point at a set of Trust Recipes and the runtime takes care of execution, events, and persistence.

Best fit: Teams delivering React, Next.js, or custom UI who want Trust Runtime as their default backend partner.

02

Ambitious Entrepreneurs

Your idea deserves an engine that executes your intent.

Not every product fits a standard SaaS template. With Trust Recipes you describe commands, events, and policies as files. Trust Runtime turns that business intent into a running application, with Trust Factory helping you author it.

Your advantage

Skip months of backend and DevOps work. Launch on Trust Runtime with recipes tailored to your domain, and evolve by editing files instead of rewriting services.

Best fit: Founders building products that outgrow standard SaaS, with event-driven or AI-native requirements.

03

Scaling Startups

When your MVP becomes real, your runtime needs to become real too.

You proved product-market fit. Now the system behind it needs to scale without accumulating debt. Trust Fabric handles event processing and persistence; Trust Runtime executes the recipes that encode how your business actually works.

Your advantage

Stop hiring engineers to babysit a hand-rolled stack. Move to a documented runtime where recipes capture behavior, the fabric captures history, and the factory keeps both moving.

Best fit: Series A/B startups replacing their first backend with Trust Runtime for the next 10x of growth.

04

Product Teams at Established Companies

Innovation inside structure.

Large organizations struggle to move fast without breaking what works. Trust Runtime is just a server: it runs next to your current stack and executes new recipes without forcing a migration.

Your advantage

No more 18-month rewrites. Introduce Trust Runtime incrementally, one recipe at a time, while your existing systems keep serving production traffic.

Best fit: Internal product teams adding AI features or modernizing data processing on top of legacy systems.

05

AI-Native Builders

AI is not a feature. It is a design principle.

If AI is core to your product, your backend has to be designed for it. Trust Fabric provides event sourcing and CQRS by default; Trust Factory uses AI to help you author the recipes Trust Runtime executes.

Your advantage

An execution engine that mirrors how AI actually works: declarative, event-driven, with full history. No bolted-on AI integrations, just recipes and events the models can reason about.

Best fit: Teams building recommendation engines, intelligent automation, or AI-powered platforms on Trust Runtime.

06

Independent Software Creators

Build something meaningful. Keep full control.

Not every builder wants hyperscaler lock-in. Trust Runtime is just a server you can run anywhere, executing recipes you own. No framework lock-in, no opaque platform between you and your code.

Your advantage

Enterprise-grade execution without enterprise overhead. Recipes as files, events in your own fabric, runtime on your own hardware. Fully transparent, fully yours.

Best fit: Indie hackers, solo founders, and small teams who want Trust Runtime on their own infrastructure.

Why Partners Choose Trust Runtime

No framework lock-in. No hidden platform. Just a server that executes the recipes you own.

Trust Runtime, anywhere

Run the engine on your own infrastructure, in the EU, or on-premise. It is just a server: no hyperscaler dependency, full sovereignty over your data.

Trust Recipes outlive teams

Business intent lives in declarative files: commands, events, and policies. The runtime stays the same as people come and go.

Trust Fabric and Factory together

Event processing and persistence under the hood, AI-powered authoring on top. Your domain evolves without rewriting the engine.

Founder Ventures

The runtime, running in the wild.

Bob and David do not just build Trust Runtime, they build on it. These are the companies and products they founded, each one a live proof of the same principles at commercial scale.

Trusted Collaborators

The people we build with.

Trust is a long-term commitment. These are the practitioners whose thinking, craft, and judgement have shaped how Trust Runtime shows up in the world.

Rolf de Jong

Software architect and connector, former CIO of AFAS Software

As CIO at AFAS, Rolf led the shift from hand-written code to model-driven engineering, a 200 man-year investment to decouple technology from functionality in the Profit ERP. That same conviction, that software should be described declaratively and outlive the frameworks it runs on, is what makes his voice a reference point for Trust Runtime.

Klaas Jan Bolt

Founder of Benzomoe, healthcare and deprescribing lead

Klaas Jan brings principled architecture into a domain where it has to actually change lives: pharmacies, GPs, and regional programmes that help patients taper sleep medication. Benzomoe is that work made concrete, and a live example of a domain proposition running on Trust Runtime.

Independence Is the New Scalability

Break free from invisible dependencies. Every collaboration starts with shared principles: transparency, control, and architecture that serves you, not the other way around.
