The Factor reads your database, applies your custom FreeMarker templates, and generates complete, deterministic code — entities, services, controllers, DTOs, and tests — in minutes, not days.
Unlike AI coding assistants, The Factor produces consistent, repeatable output — the same schema always generates the same code.
Direct JDBC connection reads tables, columns, primary keys, foreign keys, indexes, and data types from PostgreSQL and other databases.
Full FreeMarker integration with content assist. Write templates once, generate code for any number of database tables automatically.
Transform existing applications into reusable templates. Unique feature that no competitor offers — learn from your best code.
Intelligent mapping between database types (int4, timestamptz, text) and programming language types with customizable rules.
Pre-built template packs for Quarkus, Spring Boot, React/Redux, and more. Or create your own for any language or framework.
JAR signing, code obfuscation (dProtect), Ed25519 license signatures, and daily heartbeat monitoring for compliance.
No complex configuration. Connect your database, pick your templates, and generate.
Point The Factor at your PostgreSQL (or any JDBC) database. It reads tables, columns, keys, and indexes automatically.
→Select from pre-built template packs (Quarkus, Spring Boot) or create your own FreeMarker templates.
→Click generate. The Factor creates complete, production-ready source files for every table in your schema.
→Your generated project compiles immediately. Entities, services, REST controllers, DTOs, and tests — all ready.
