Platform note
Betty Blocks
Betty Blocks is a no-code and low-code platform for business applications, portals, and workflow automation. It is often used where organizations want business-facing teams to shape applications while still structuring data, screens, and process flow in a managed environment.
Applications built on Betty Blocks often matter because they formalize operational work that would otherwise remain fragmented across mail, spreadsheets, and manual coordination.
What it was typically used for
Organizations used Betty Blocks for internal portals, approval workflows, service processes, customer operations, employee administration, compliance steps, and specialist business applications maintained close to the process owners.
Why it still matters in rescue work
Betty Blocks usually expresses business logic through data models, actions, page behavior, and workflow configuration rather than through a traditional codebase. Rescue work has to recover the business decisions hidden in those models and flows.
Artifacts to inspect when extracting business logic
- Data models: entity structure, relationships, and business assumptions.
- Actions and workflows: branching, validation, automation, and orchestration.
- Pages and components: user flow, visibility rules, and screen behavior.
- Roles and permissions: access-driven logic and operational separation.
- Integrations: dependencies on external systems, APIs, and messaging.
- Environment configuration: deployment assumptions and business-unit variation.
