The problem
An LLM will write a spatial tool in an afternoon. You can knock together a Python generative algorithm in half a week. But then you need hosting, secure user management, mapping tools, APIs and a security review. Suddenly you’re looking at months, and the good idea dies.
Layer management, drafting tools, geometry engine, user settings... You can build it. But it is a large surface area to maintain before you get to the part of your app that is special.
Hosting, APIs, persistence, deployment and servers all have to be built and maintained, and every one has to stand up to a security review.
Finding users and training them, scaling support infrastructure, learning from their behaviour, whilst developing your tool can be overwhelming.
Giraffe Code accelerates all three, so you can focus on your unique product, without being overwhelmed.
Introducing Giraffe Code
Giraffe Code is built to support your app: SDKs, APIs and infrastructure that handle the tricky jobs. Giraffe has battle-hardened drawing, mapping and data abstractions that you can use however you want, and it's all JSON. Your app runs in an iframe, isolated and secure, so your IP is always your own.
In JavaScript, by hand or with an LLM, starting from an example app that already works.
Onto Giraffe, in its own sandbox, with sign-in and hosting handled.
Your team opens it in their projects, on the live model, with nothing to install.

Case study · NSW Government
Property and Development NSW built Land iQ with WSP: a whole-of-government land use platform on Giraffe that brings more than 200 data sources and 75 land-use data types together for faster site identification and due diligence. It led the NSW Government’s Property Audit of land for housing, and helped find emergency accommodation sites after the 2022 Northern Rivers floods.
“We’re cutting down from weeks or months to a day or days to find the site and take a site design and layout.”James StruttDirector, Strategic Advisory Services, NSW Government
Build it yourself with the SDK, or bring in the Giraffe team: we have built most of the hard parts of this already, with simple, transparent pricing.
Your team owns the app; we support deployment, onboarding and training.
We build the first version together. You learn the SDK, we speed up delivery.
Tell us the problem. We scope, build and deploy a production app on your instance.
Your internal sources wired into the apps that need them.

Yes, and that is how most of them start. It is plain JavaScript against a small, documented SDK, with example apps to copy from, so an LLM has a short, well-lit path from a prompt to a working app. Chat Code builds one inside Giraffe.
Each app runs in its own sandboxed frame and reaches the platform only through the SDK’s authorised functions. An app sees the project it is opened in, not the rest of your organisation’s data.
Onto the Giraffe platform, where your team opens them in their projects with nothing to install. Sign-in and hosting are handled; you write the app.
You do. Your IP is always yours: the apps, the code and the workflows in them, whether you use them in-house, share them with collaborators or sell them on the marketplace.
Yes. Backends run your server-side code, and the API reaches the same projects from outside, so Giraffe sits in the middle of the systems you already run rather than beside them.
Enterprise deployments cover SSO, audit logs, an SLA, bespoke datasets and custom apps, with the security documentation procurement will ask for. Giraffe is ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified.
