Palantir Foundry
Dashboards. Workflows. Actions.
Building a Workshop app is easy. Building one that people actually use is hard. BaileyFinch builds Workshop applications that solve specific problems and fit into existing workflows. Not demos. Production tools.
Discuss Your Workshop Build →The adoption problem
Most apps fail because they do not solve a real problem, they are confusing to navigate, or they require people to change how they work. The development team builds what looks good in a demo. End users open it once and go back to their spreadsheets.
The successful Workshop applications we have built share common traits. They solve a painful problem better than whatever people were doing before. They fit into existing processes. They are intuitive enough that people do not need training to figure them out.
We build Workshop applications with end users in the loop from the start, not after the demo is ready.
What we build
Every application is wired to live ontology objects with action types that write back. Not static dashboards. Operational tools that drive decisions and execute workflows.
Real-time views of what is happening across your operations. Filtered tables, maps, charts, and alerts for things that need attention. Designed for people who need to make decisions quickly, not for boardroom presentations.
Apps that guide users through multi-step processes: creating requests, routing approvals, updating status, tracking progress. Built around how your processes actually work, with action types handling the writes and validation.
Interfaces that let users find information themselves instead of asking someone else. Search, filter, and drill-down views that surface the data people need. Object Explorer integrations that connect related information without requiring SQL.
Summary views and KPI dashboards for leadership who need the operational picture without the operational detail. Quiver time series for trend analysis, Contour analytics for ad hoc questions, and Workshop boards that tell the story at a glance.
How we design applications
01
We sit with end users and understand what they are doing today. What takes too long? What information is missing? Where do they leave Foundry to go back to email or spreadsheets? That is where the application starts.
02
Module layouts, variable flows, and widget configurations designed for the way users think about their work. Object set filters that surface the right data at the right time. Board navigation that makes sense without a manual.
03
Action types with proper validation, permission checks, and write-back logic. Users do not just view data; they act on it. Status updates, approvals, assignments, and record creation all happen inside the application through the ontology.
04
Applications go in front of actual users before they are considered done. We iterate based on real feedback, not assumptions about what users want. The application ships when users confirm it solves their problem better than what they had before.
Integration with Foundry features
Workshop is most effective when it connects to every other Foundry capability. We build applications that use the full stack, not isolated boards disconnected from the rest of your environment.
Ontology Integration
Workshop modules wired directly to ontology object types and link types. Object Explorer integrations that let users navigate related data. Action types that write back to objects with validation and permission checks.
Analytics Layer
What-if modeling with Scenarios embedded in Workshop boards. Quiver time series visualizations for trend and pattern analysis. Contour analytics for users who need to answer ad hoc questions without custom development.
Distribution
For multi-organization deployments, Workshop applications packaged as Marketplace products. Build once, deploy across customer environments with version control and managed updates. We have built B2B architectures that run across dozens of tenants.
Describe the problem you are trying to solve and we will propose a Workshop solution. We will walk through the design approach, the ontology requirements, and how the application fits into your existing Foundry environment.
