Architecture, not a monolith

Explore how the platform's composable architecture gives teams flexibility without sacrificing governance.

Composable Architecture

Archy is built as a set of composable services, not a monolith. Each product operates independently but shares core infrastructure: identity, tenancy, billing, and AI model access. This means teams can adopt one product at a time without rearchitecting.

Core Services

Identity (Entra ID), workspace tenancy, billing, API gateway, and shared data layer.

Integration Layer

MCP protocol bridge connecting Jira, AI models, and external tools into unified workflows.

Product Modules

Each product (Press, Assistants, Starter, KB, Social) is an independent module on shared infra.

AI Infrastructure & MCP Integration

The platform uses Azure AI Foundry models for content generation, analysis, and intelligent assistance. Every AI interaction flows through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling tool-based actions, structured outputs, and audit trails.

Azure AI Foundry

GPT-4o, vision models, and embeddings — managed with token budgets and rate governance.

MCP Protocol

Standardized tool interface connecting Jira, publishing, knowledgebase, and custom tools.

Agent Orchestration

Multi-agent workflows with LangGraph — RAG retrieval, document analysis, and content generation.

Governance

Token budgets per workspace, content safety filters, and full audit logging for compliance.

Data Architecture & Security Model

Every workspace is a fully isolated tenant — data, media, and configuration are never shared across boundaries. The platform runs on Azure with PostgreSQL for structured data and Azure Blob Storage for media assets.

Workspace Tenancy

Row-level isolation with workspace-scoped queries. No data crosses tenant boundaries.

Azure Blob Storage

Media assets stored in Azure Blob with SAS token access and automatic CDN distribution.

Role-Based Access

Owner, admin, editor, and viewer roles with granular permissions per workspace.

Enterprise SSO

Microsoft Entra ID integration for single sign-on in enterprise deployments.

Platform Capabilities

Use the platform end-to-end — from structuring work, to integrating Jira, to running AI-powered agentic workflows.

Idea → Plan → Backlog → Delivery
A guided flow that takes a raw idea through structured briefing, architecture generation, backlog creation, and into delivery tracking.
Jira + MCP Integration
Bring your delivery system into AI workflows — create issues, sync statuses, and generate summaries through standardized MCP tools.
Dashboards & Story Mapping
Live widgets and signals that keep teams aligned on outcomes — not just ticket counts. Configurable per workspace.
Agentic Workflows
Orchestrate RAG + multi-agent work using LangGraph — for delivery, documentation, content generation, and decision support.
Multi-Tenant Workspaces
Every workspace is an isolated tenant with its own sites, blogs, members, billing, and configuration. Scale from solo to enterprise.
Enterprise Governance
Role-based access, audit trails, token budgets, and content safety filters — deploy with confidence in regulated environments.

The Archy Journey

From a Jira assistant to a full AI-powered platform suite.

  • ArchyStarter launched — idea-to-blueprint in minutes
  • Enterprise self-hosted deployment on Azure
  • Multi-tenant workspace architecture shipped

2025 — Publishing & Intelligence

ArchyPress and Archy Social brought content publishing into the platform. The Knowledgebase gained hybrid retrieval and entity resolution. MCP integration standardized all tool interactions.
