This release significantly advances our Technology-as-a-Service strategy by adding PostgreSQL database as the fourth supported database type. PostgreSQL is an open-source and freely available database with a strong track record in enterprise applications. In addition to Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2 for iSeries, and OracleDB, developers can now opt to build applications with PostgreSQL.

We are also proud to launch the full Software Factory in the Universal UI! You can now access the Software Factory on any device with supported browsers, eliminating the need for installing a client application. All 3-tier features are now available to further improve the Software Factory. We have already made some improvements, including upgraded graphical modelers, improved usability, and the launch application task being available directly from the menu.

Following our Lifecycle policy, the Windows GUI is no longer supported from this release onwards. The 3-tier architecture is now enforced, so make sure all your applications run on the Universal UI before upgrading to Platform version 2026.1! Refer to our comprehensive 7-step approach in the documentation, to smoothly transition to the Universal UI on Platform version 2025.3 and sunset the Windows GUI.

Recently, we have made Thinkwise Cloud available as hosting option for the Thinkwise platform. The Thinkwise Cloud is a managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) environment, allowing you to deploy and run your Thinkwise applications without needing to manage your own infrastructure. For more information, see the Thinkwise Cloud page on our website.

If you host the Software Factory and Intelligent Application Manager in the Thinkwise Cloud, certain limitations apply. Unavailable features are automatically disabled from Thinkwise platform 2026.1 onwards. See the Thinkwise Cloud documentation for more information.

As of this release, you can now group actions for tasks, reports, prefilters, and cube views in the action bar, improving visual organization of similar actions. This also helps prevent actions from being added to the overflow menu too quickly. Additionally, new actions are introduced that allow toggling the grid height based on Multiline or HTML Control values.

We have made the highly requested feature of using subflows in regular Process flows available. This helps developers create modular process flows that are easily reused, greatly accelerating development and boosting maintainability. In addition, for process flows, we added the new Open filter process action as a more flexible and formalized replacement for the Start empty with filter.

For Scheduler views, you can further customize their appearance by hiding days and hours that are not relevant. This allows you to display only working days and hours, for example. You can also now configure the time cell width to further improve visibility.

The Slow query log has been improved to aid in debugging. It now includes query type and user logging, providing more context for analyzing slow queries.

While this release mainly focused on introducing PostgreSQL support and bringing the Software Factory to the Universal UI, it also includes 10 Community ideas representing 103 votes.

This release takes a significant step in modernizing the Universal GUI. Applications now feel closer to native mobile apps, with support for push notifications and advanced localization for language, date, and number formats.

Users can now save advanced filters as prefilters in the Universal GUI, making it easier to reuse complex filter setups. In the Intelligent Application Manager, the Authorization and Web domains screens have been further refined to improve usability.

To support developers, we have added the ability to generate unit tests with AI, significantly speeding up the creation of test cases. In addition, you can now use any OpenAI Compatible LLM with the Thinkwise Platform, including self-hosted models.

We have also added several quality-of-life improvements:

• Creating new branches or models directly from the Switch branch pop-up
• Automatic copying of program objects when creating a new branch
• More efficient handling of base models during model import
• Extended import options for Thinkstore models
• Automatic copying of translations for task and report parameters

An important addition for Administrators and Developers alike, is the Slow Query Log in IAM. This feature provides visibility into all queries exceeding the Query runtime threshold, which is set to 200ms by default.

And while not strictly related to Platform release 2025.3, we would like to highlight the significant UI styling and data density changes that we introduced with Universal GUI 2025.2.13 onwards, as well as the introduction of the Debug center with Indicium 2025.2.13.

Lastly, we would like to remind you that this release (2025.3) is the last LTS release to support the 2-tier architecture. The 3-tier architecture is much more secure and stricter regarding the quality of your model. If you are still working in a 2-tier environment, fix all findings in validations and smoke tests to prepare for the transition to a 3-tier environment. More documentation to support your transition will become available soon.

This release includes 12 community ideas representing 254 votes. The most popular ideas are:

• Ad-hoc push notifications for the Universal GUI (77 votes)
• Localization settings for user preferences (21 votes)
• Custom messages for capturing database errors (20 votes)

This release of the Thinkwise Platform is a leap forward in user experience.

We have greatly improved the filtering capabilities: users can now filter on data in related detail and lookup subjects in the filter pop-up, and use advanced AND/OR/NOR filter conditions. To improve usability, the Filter button is now by default shown on the action bar and the filter pop-up has been optimized for smaller screens.

Graphical components have also received significant updates. You can now:

• Enable your users to add geometric types to and move markers on a Map.
• Enable your users to execute tasks on time cells, and drag and drop external records in the Scheduler.
• Apply conditional layouts in the Scheduler.
• Add custom legend colors to Charts.
• Better interact with Custom Components.

We have further improved the UI/UX flexibility of the Thinkwise Platform. Enhancements include configurable menu color settings within a theme, designated primary actions, alternative translations for task and report buttons, and additional font styling options in conditional layouts. With the ability to embed a custom CSS file in the Intelligent Application Manager and a redesigned Indicium login page, you can create a more personalized and branded user login experience.

To improve your development experience, we have made several enhancements to the Software Factory. This includes a more robust branching and merging process, and improvements for unit tests. We have introduced user preference settings for the Creation process and some new enrichments.

Lastly, we would like to remind you that this year (2025) is the last year the 2-tier architecture is supported. The 3-tier architecture is much more secure and stricter regarding the quality of your model. If you are still working in a 2-tier environment, fix all findings in validations and smoke tests to prepare for the transition to a 3-tier environment. More documentation to support your transition will become available soon.

This release includes 18 community ideas representing 391 votes. The most popular ideas are:

• Alternative translations for buttons in tasks and reports (44 votes).
• Informing users (using Windows GUI or Indicium) of maintenance (37 votes).
• 'Run now' button for system flows in IAM (37 votes).

In this release of the Thinkwise Platform, we have made significant improvements to the configuration of action bars in the Universal GUI. You now have more control over the placement of action bars within a screen and can manage their content and appearance more flexibly. In addition, the new UI Styling has been applied to the new action bars.

We have also added a number of other new features for the Universal GUI, such as collapsible sections for forms, a relative setting for the form column width, and expanding settings for grids.

Cubes are now more user-friendly to set up. We have redesigned the cube screen and added support for editable pivot grids and calculated cube fields.

The most significant new feature in IAM is the ability to plan the clean-up of applications, branches, and models. This feature helps you keep your IAM environment tidy by automatically removing applications, branches, and models that are no longer in use.

With this release, we also introduce the first official version of the Windows GUI (3-tier) via Indicium, making Indicium Basic end-of-life. This year (2025) is the last year the 2-tier architecture is supported. Note that the Windows GUI (3-tier) is a backup plan if moving to the Universal GUI directly proves problematic. It is only available for those participating in the early-adopter program. The 3-tier architecture is much more secure and stricter regarding the quality of your model, so to prepare for the transition to the Universal GUI or to the Windows GUI (3-tier), we recommend fixing all findings in validations and smoke tests.

This release contains 28 Community ideas representing a record of 599 votes. The most popular ideas were:

• Assign tasks, reports, and filters to a bar (77 votes, and long-awaited!)
• Create alternative translations for objects (71 votes)

The 2024.3 release of the Thinkwise Platform introduces Personal Access Tokens (PATs) as an option to enhance security. PATs are a secure way for users to allow external parties to connect with your application. Some advantages of PATs are that user credentials are not shared, access can be limited to specific resources, and access can be revoked without changing the user's password.

Customized reports are now possible thanks to a new parameter property in the Software Factory and the ability to override the default report file in IAM.

Other highlights in IAM include environment interaction logs (to monitor the configuration of your environment), and security checks (to verify the data accessibility of your application).

We also made quite a number of quality-of-life improvements, including performance enhancements, better merging capabilities, UI/UX updates for unit tests, and new options in code search.

Hello everyone,

This release features the further integration of AI-powered model enrichments in the Software Factory. We have added new generic model enrichments and model enrichments specifically designed for a seamless transition to the Universal GUI. Many of the generic model enrichments have been made available as tasks on the screens where they can be of immediate use. The AI code review has been improved, and is now also available as a task.

An important visual change is that we have restructured the default menu in the Software Factory. It now contains a new menu group, Integration & AI, that allows easy access to screens that were previously only available as a tab in a branch. In IAM, the tabs in the menu item Applications have been restructured as well.

Another new feature in the Software Factory is the columnstore index support. A columnstore index offers substantial data compression, resulting in improved query performance. A powerful use case for columnstore indexes is storing LLM embeddings.

We have also introduced a new process flow connector: Web connection. It is an enhanced and re-usable version of the HTTP connector.

One of the new features in IAM is the support for public OpenID Connect clients in the client apps. This allows two types of clients: confidential and public.

This release includes 9 Community ideas representing 104 votes. For a full overview of all the new features and changes, please read the release notes below.

The 2024.1 release of the Thinkwise Platform features the introduction of model enrichments. Model enrichments are actions that automate parts of your manual workflows. You can use them to kick-start the work on your application before you start with manual fine-tuning.

We have also enhanced the merging process by introducing reciprocal merging. This allows you to merge a branch to its origin and continue working in the branch without having to manually merge the origin back to the branch. To prevent branches from being archived or deleted, we have introduced branch protection.

For the Universal GUI, we have added support for screen configuration preferences. Users can now, for example, select another screen type, and reorder or hide detail screens. You can read more about this in the Universal GUI release notes in the Thinkwise Community.

This release also includes 10 Community ideas representing 123 votes. One community idea that received many votes requested a double-click task that is bound to a specific column. This enhancement significantly improves the user experience by allowing each column in a grid to start a different process or handle specific data.

The highlight of this release is the introduction of generative AI in the Software Factory. We have added four Large Language Model connectors that you can use in your system flows. This opens a world of new possibilities.

Of course, we have also implemented AI in the Software Factory. The first use is for reviewing control procedures. You can decide whether you want to use it or not, to support a human review.

An important change in this release is that we have improved the merging process and its screens.

Below, you can read about all the improvements and additions, including 8 Community ideas representing 111 votes.

The 2023.2 release of the Thinkwise Platform includes many improvements and additions. One of the most visible changes is that we have revised the Result tab in the Functionality screen. An example of a new feature is, that you can now mark a column or domain for optimistic locking, which prevents users from editing the same record at the same time.

Because we value your input, this release also includes 29 community ideas representing 390 votes. One idea that received many votes was a Branch diagram for your models in the Software Factory. It provides a graphical overview of all the branches inside the model and how they interact. Another popular Community idea was to add the Match any (OR) option to the prefilters. This allows you to set up combinations of prefilters that were not possible before.

We are very excited to announce version 2023.1 of the Thinkwise Platform.

This release contains a major change in version control that affects a large part of the Software Factory. Make sure you carefully read all release notes for this change, as mentioned under the topics Breaking and A new way of version control.
