Beyond Camunda compatibility

🏛️

ArchiMate traceability

Connect enterprise architecture models directly to running processes. No other hosted BPMN engine does this - it's a capability Camunda doesn't offer.

📋

CMMN case management

Run adaptive case models alongside BPMN workflows. Camunda dropped CMMN. Priostack kept it - because consultants still need it.

🤖

AI supervision

Models are checked for paths that could get stuck before they run. At run time, a job that fails with no retries left raises an incident, and every instance in INCIDENT is one filter away.

💼

Consultant-first billing

One free account for all your client engagements. No per-client org, no per-client licence, no platform cost.
