Built like infrastructure, because it is

FormaBase runs money, identity and attribution for every product in its portfolio. This is how the platform is designed, how it protects the people who use it, and what is live today.

Last updated October 4, 2026

Guides

Architecture

One Core that owns money, identity and attribution, with every product as a thin, isolated satellite.

Security

Verified Creators, least access, secrets that never leave the Core, and review before every release.

Payout engine

Net receipts, attribution, the order of payment and an append-only ledger, specified to the cent.

Building on FormaBase

The stack, what comes pre-wired, the release requirements and the hand-off checklist for Creators.

Live

Design system

The tokens, components, motion and drafting layer every FormaBase product is built from.

Platform status

Every system with its current state. 4 live, 7 in progress and 3 planned. Live means running in production; in progress means being built now; planned means committed and next in line.

formabase.app

The public site, served over HTTPS from a global edge network with strict browser security headers.

Live

Design system and brand kit
