Remember that moment of frustration when a brilliant app idea gets lost in translation between “what we need” and “how to build it”? You’re not alone. We’ve been there too.

Businesses need to adapt quickly, but traditional development can feel like a bottleneck. That’s exactly why we built and transformed the next generation of our platform.

We’re incredibly excited to introduce Joget DX 9. It’s not just an update; it’s a new way of thinking about building apps, designed to make the process simpler, smarter, and more secure for everyone.

Joget DX 9 release focuses on five key areas that we believe matter most to your business:

Let’s walk through what’s new in Joget DX 9.

1. Joget Intelligence: Your New AI Partner

We believe the future of development isn’t about AI replacing people; it’s about AI assisting people. Joget Intelligence is our new suite of features designed to be your helpful partner.

1.1. Start a Conversation with the Joget AI Designer

Got an idea? Just tell it to the Joget AI Designer. Type out what you need in plain English—or even snap a picture of a sketch you drew on a whiteboard. It’ll get to work, turning your words and drawings into a real, working prototype, without any coding. It’s the fastest way to go from “what if” to “what’s next.”

Joget AI Designer allows you to:

• Convey your app idea via text or an image.
• Generate form designs and make changes through simple conversations.
• Add new forms effortlessly, speeding up the initial build phase dramatically.

1.2. Build Your Own Digital Workforce: The Joget AI Agent Builder. 

This is where you become the architect of automation. Instead of giving you a fixed set of automated tasks, we give you the tools to build your own, with human oversight at every step. 

The Joget AI Agent Builder provides a simple, drag-and-drop canvas where you configure intelligent, AI-powered agents to handle specific tasks while maintaining complete visibility and control. You can teach them to review documents, process data, or interact with other software, all while keeping humans in the loop for critical decisions and final approvals.

Once built, you can test the agents thoroughly in a controlled environment and then deploy them into your workflows. These AI agents work autonomously 24/7, but always with the option for human intervention when needed, ensuring that your automation remains efficient, accountable, and aligned with your business values.

1.3. Your AI Toolbox: The Joget AI Bundle. 

This is your collection of pre-built AI tools to add advanced smarts to your apps immediately. For example, you can use the AI Writing Assistant plugin to craft perfect messaging using ChatGPT right within the Joget platform, or use the AI Form Fill Element to automatically generate and populate form data with OpenAI’s GPT models. 

The best part? These AI plugins, along with many others like TensorFlow for image recognition, are ready to download and use right now from the Joget Marketplace, making it incredibly easy to accelerate your AI adoption.

1.4. Coming Soon – Your Contextual Guide:  The Joget AI Assistant

Soon, you won’t be building alone. The upcoming Joget AI Assistant can be embedded directly into the platform, acting as a smart, contextual guide. It will provide real-time recommendations, answer questions, and offer data insights exactly when and where you need them, whether you’re designing a form or optimizing a process.

2. User Experience: An Experience Designed for People

A platform is only as good as the experience it provides. We’ve focused on making Joget DX 9 a pleasure to use for everyone.

2.1. UI Theme Builder

Finally, take full control of how your apps look and make them your own. Customize colors, fonts, and layouts to match your company’s brand perfectly, all through a visual, no-code interface.

…………………………..

2.2. Enhanced Process Builder

Building workflows is now clearer and more intuitive. With a new mini-map for navigation and auto-layout to clean up complex diagrams, you can map out your business processes without the clutter, and smart alignment guides. It’s like giving your workflow a much-needed organizer.

…………………………..

2.3. Revamped Admin Console

We’ve given the App Center and admin console a major makeover. We’ve streamlined the backend, making it easier to find settings and manage users. Plus, you can now choose between light and dark themes, because comfort matters.

…………………………..

2.4. A More Flexible and Informative Workspace

We’ve redesigned the interface to adapt to how you work. The new movable Quick Navigation bar can now be dragged to your preferred side of the screen, left or right, putting essential tools exactly where you need them. 

Plus, clear and timely toast messages now confirm every action, like edits or deletions, giving you immediate peace of mind that your changes were successfully saved.

3. Performance and Scalability: Built for Your Biggest Challenges

Ready for Your Biggest Ideas? We designed Joget DX 9 for mission-critical applications. How critical? Think about a major telecommunications company using Joget to deploy apps to support a nationwide rollout for over 280 million people. That’s the scale we have in mind for you.

New enhancements ensure your apps are robust and responsive:

3.1 In-Memory Grid Integration

This is like adding a turbocharger for data-heavy apps. By leveraging in-memory computing, we drastically reduce delays and improve performance. It acts like a super-fast shortcut for your data, making complex apps feel incredibly quick and responsive.

…………………………..

3.2. Asynchronous Processing

Never let a user wait on a spinning wheel again. With Asynchronous Processing, your app doesn’t freeze when handling a big job. It just quietly gets it done in the background while your users get on with their work.

4. Integration and Extensibility: Connecting Everything, Seamlessly

Your new apps need to get along with your old systems. Joget DX 9 strengthens its role as your friendly connector and central integration hub.

4.1. A Marketplace At Your Fingertips

Need a new plugin from Joget Marketplace to assist you in app development? Now you can find and install it right from inside the Joget platform, as easily as installing an app on your phone. You can also manage your plugins without ever leaving the platform.

…………………………..

4.2. API Connector Builder

Talking to other software (like Salesforce, QuickBooks, or anything with an API) is now a no-code conversation. 

The API Connector Builder streamlines API integration. Upload an OpenAPI (OAS) document, choose the endpoints, and instantly make them available in your app design.

5. Security and Governance: Keeping Your Apps Safe and Compliant

Strong security shouldn’t be complex. Joget DX 9 introduces powerful new features that are both secure and user-friendly.

5.1. Goodbye, Passwords. Hello, Passkeys. We’re moving beyond passwords. Users can now log in as easily as they unlock their modern devices, using biometrics like fingerprints or facial recognition.  It’s not just simpler; it’s significantly more secure.

…………………………..

…………………………..

5.4. Governance Center

This is your command center for managing it all. The Governance Center is a centralized portal that gives your organization the tools to set clear policies, manage citizen development governance, and ensure every app built on Joget complies with your internal rules and external regulations, efficiently and with full visibility.

6. Get Ready: The Future of App Development is Almost Here

Joget DX 9 is more than just a set of new features. It’s a belief that technology should empower people, not complicate things for them. It’s a platform where human creativity and artificial intelligence work in partnership, where enterprise-level power is delivered through a simple, intuitive experience, and where security and scalability are inherent from the ground up.

The official release is just around the corner. Don’t just hear about the future of app development, be the first to experience it firsthand.
