Notes/Domino Assessment
Notes App
Modernization Assessment
See your entire portfolio of Domino business apps with the help of AI. We write a business specification for each application: the blueprint for your next step, whether you keep, Web-enable or rebuild it.
Problem
Does this sound familiar?
"We don't know exactly how many Domino business apps we have."
After years of retirements and transfers, few people know the full picture.
"There are no specifications, and the people who built the apps are gone."
No one in the company can explain what is inside.
"We want to Web-enable or rebuild, but don't know where to start."
Without a view of the current state, you cannot even get an estimate.
"Every app is complex, with its own logic and access rights."
Investigating them takes time and money, and the investigation itself becomes the bottleneck.
Why so hard
The real reason rebuilds
are hard to estimate
Not the vendor's skills,
but the apps themselves.
Custom logic refined over decades and fine-grained access control. Until someone opens an app up and understands it, it cannot even be estimated.
Inside a single app
All of this, in just one app.
Spec-driven development
Spec-driven development
In the years ahead, accurate specifications become the most valuable blueprint you have.
Until now
People write code, line by line.
From now on
Refine the specification, and AI builds from it.
A specification extracted by AI is not just a record of the past.
It is a valuable blueprint you can use for whatever you build next.
The service
From chaos to order.
The Notes/Domino Assessment
Finished specifications are not the goal. AI comes to understand your business, and you gain an environment where you can develop with AI.
See the current state
What is used, by whom and how. Get the full picture of your application assets.
AI writes the specifications
Purpose, fields, approval routes, related databases and improvement candidates, drafted automatically.
A base for your next step
Keep, Web-enable or rebuild: a blueprint you can use whichever path you choose.
How it works
Why KTrick
can do this
A six-step process reads the design of your Notes applications, and it scales to hundreds of apps.
AI × our Domino know-how × your team's tacit knowledge
With all three together, you get business specifications that go well beyond a rough draft.
Virtual Domino environment
Built with one click using Docker.
Automatic extraction
NTF files are expanded into on-disk projects, even for hundreds of apps.
AI reads the design
Forms, logic and access rights are analyzed.
Specifications generated
AI skills that capture our Domino know-how write the business specifications.
Dedicated portal
Check progress and specifications on the portal.
Refined with tacit knowledge
Feedback from the people who use the apps completes the specifications.
Next move
There is no single right answer
for your next step.
Every option is valid, and every one of them builds on your Domino assets.
Your Domino business assets
The assessment gives each app a difficulty rating and a recommended action. Whichever path you choose, the business specification is the foundation.
Keep
Keep using Notes/Domino, with version upgrades and maintenance.
One-Stop SupportWeb-enable
Make your Notes applications available in the browser.

Rebuild the app in a new form, with consentFlow or other tools, based on its business specification.
consentFlowArchive
Apps that have served their purpose are preserved as records.
Deliverables
Deliverables: a business specification for each app
Each application's specification is delivered in two formats.
Markdown (.md)
Edit and reuse it as is, or use it as input for AI.
HTML (.html)
View, share and print it right away in a browser.
Available on the dedicated portal
Check the progress of the assessment and the finished specifications on the dedicated portal.
What each specification covers
- Purpose (what the business process is for)
- Departments and users
- Input fields and data structure
- Inventory of design elements
- Approval routes and workflows
- Related databases and external integrations
- Improvement candidates and risks
