Mendix
From fragmented AI experiments to one governed platform
What is Mendix?
Mendix started as a low-code platform: a way to build applications faster, closer to the business and with less classic development complexity. That remains valuable. But the demand for technology has changed.
AI agents, copilots and automations are moving towards production. There, it is no longer about speed alone, it is about scaling up in a controlled way.
As soon as AI touches customer data, compliance or operational decisions, a standalone AI pilot no longer suffices. You then need data, management, audit, human oversight and accountability.
That is why Mendix today is not only a low-code platform, it is above all an agentic enterprise platform. The platform offers a controlled place where applications, AI agents, workflows and people work together, with the governance that goes with it.
Mendix remains one of the leading Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms, according to Gartner’s latest report.
Mendix versus vibe coding
With vibe coding you quickly build a prototype. That is valuable for a demo or first validation. But you don’t just put it into production.
As soon as an application runs in a business process, other requirements come into play. You manage prompts. Data sources need to be correct. You keep permissions, logging and changes to models auditable. Without that foundation, a landscape of loose scripts, tools and data sources quickly emerges, with no clear ownership.
Mendix offers a different route for this. The platform helps organise applications, workflows, AI agents and existing systems in one manageable environment. Not as a standalone experiment, but as part of a process that you manage, audit and keep developing.
Cloud Sovereignty within Mendix
Mendix runs in the Mendix Cloud by default, but also deploys on Azure, SAP or STACKIT. This gives you more control over infrastructure and compliance without leaving the Mendix platform.
STACKIT is the cloud of Schwarz Digits, also known as the “Lidl cloud”. The cloud platform is fully hosted in Germany and Austria, under European legislation.
LINKIT has been an implementation partner of STACKIT for more than three years.

Mendix for Business
Mendix helps business & transformation teams move AI and automation from idea to working solution faster. Not as a standalone pilot, but as an application that delivers value in real processes.
- Faster from idea to result: you develop and adapt new applications, workflows and AI applications faster.
- More grip on business value: you link solutions to concrete goals such as lower costs, shorter turnaround times or higher productivity.
- Less fragmentation: applications, data, workflows and agents come together in one environment instead of separate tools per team.
- More scalable: what starts as a first use case can grow into multiple processes, departments or countries.
Mendix for IT & Tech
For IT, Mendix is about control without slowing down development. The platform helps place applications, workflows and AI agents into the existing architecture in a manageable way.
- Grip on governance: permissions, logging, audit and lifecycle management are part of the same environment.
- Stronger architecture control: Mendix integrates with existing systems, data sources and cloud environments without rebuilding everything.
- Less shadow IT: you replace loose tools, scripts and agent platforms with a controlled layer for development and management.
- Production-ready: solutions are easier to manage, secure and keep developing when they become part of critical processes.
