CoreCubes launches nodge: a new way to build apps and agents
One agentic platform to build, run, and govern both applications and AI agents, fully on European infrastructure and under Dutch jurisdiction.
Utrecht, June 3, 2026. Today CoreCubes launches nodge, an agentic development platform for building, running, and managing both applications and AI agents in one place.
Why we built nodge
We built nodge out of our own frustration. The existing low-code and enterprise platforms are expensive, inflexible, and built on American infrastructure with vendor lock-in baked in. You start fast, then you find you cannot leave, cannot self-host, and cannot see what your platform is doing with your data. We wanted something different, so we built it.
One place for apps and agents
Nodge brings application and agent development together. You no longer need separate tools, separate infrastructure, or separate governance for the two. It is a single environment where you build, ship, observe, and govern everything you run, with transparent usage-based pricing instead of per-seat licensing.
Everything runs on fully European infrastructure, under Dutch jurisdiction, and the platform is ISO/IEC 27001 certified. There are no American cloud dependencies in the stack. You can run in our EU cloud for convenience, or install nodge as your own platform for full sovereignty, your code, your pipelines, your governance, with no lock-in.
Faster from idea to live
Our early customers are deploying applications in days rather than weeks. That is the point of bringing the whole lifecycle into one platform: less glue, less waiting, less time spent wiring tools together instead of building the thing you set out to build.
Nodge is exactly what we always wanted from a platform: one place to build, run, and manage everything, without giving up our data or our sovereignty.

Agents and applications are no longer separate worlds. We are convinced this integrated approach is how software will be built from here on.
