Cloud Estate

Run hundreds of digital services without enterprise overhead

One Digital Service Builder for your entire service estate.

Build and maintain hundreds or thousands of accessible services, give teams controlled access to a shared platform and connect every journey to your existing systems.

For organisations running 100+ live services.

Portfolio economics

One platform. Many teams. Hundreds of services.

Once an organisation has dozens or hundreds of services, per-form software stops making sense. Cloud Estate moves Govform to an estate model.

Instead of treating every application, return, registration or workflow as a separate software purchase, you license capacity across your organisation and use it where you need it.

Create new services as demand changes, without starting another technology procurement.

Live access continues if you exceed your allowances. An extra safeguard over standard Cloud plans: with Cloud Estate, we will never stop live access if you exceed any usage metric, including API calls, AI calls, submissions or automation actions. Your services keep working as normal. You can track usage and receive alerts, and we'll contact you to agree next steps through normal account management.

Prices shown in GBP, excluding tax. Annual billing only.

Operate it yourself

Delivery speed without losing control

Your teams build with the visual Digital Service Builder, accelerate work with Darcy AI, reuse patterns and connect journeys to existing systems.

01

Build faster

Turn requirements into working digital services using drag-and-drop components, reusable patterns and AI-assisted service building.

Prototype and test before going live. Change services without commissioning a new software project.

02

Standardise your estate

Bring services spread across PDFs, spreadsheets, legacy form tools and bespoke applications onto a consistent platform.

Create common patterns for identity, evidence, validation, notifications, approvals and integrations.

03

Govern centrally

Organise services into libraries with controlled user access, shared configuration and reusable patterns.

Test in Prototype, QA and Early Access QA before releasing to Production. Track every service version, compare changes and revert to an earlier version through controlled change management.

04

Integrate instead of replace

Put Govform in front of the systems you already operate, using standard integration patterns to connect each journey.

Validate data, retrieve records, trigger actions and pass completed information downstream.

05

Accessible by default

Create responsive, accessible journeys from structured components instead of rebuilding basic interaction patterns.

Brand services for your organisation while maintaining a consistent interaction model across the estate.

06

AI with human control

Use Darcy AI inside the Builder to create services, generate content and logic, and make targeted changes.

AI-assisted updates stay within your governance model, with permissions, version history and human review.

Beyond basic forms

A Digital Service Builder, not a collection of forms

The value of an estate platform is what happens between the questions. Build complex, server-side journeys where answers control what happens next, data is validated against other systems and actions run throughout the journey.

01

Conditional journeys

Adapt pages, questions and workflows to previous answers, roles and system results.

02

Authentication and saved journeys

Create signed-in, save-and-return services where users can manage multiple submissions.

03

Workflow and approvals

Route completed services through review, approval and return-for-changes processes.

04

API automation

Call external systems, transform data and use trusted results to control what happens next.

05

Repeating and structured data

Collect lists, records and complex datasets rather than flattening every interaction.

06

Files and evidence

Collect documents and images with configurable security and privacy processing.

07

Documents and signatures

Generate documents from submitted information and support signing patterns where configured.

08

Multilingual services

Support multiple languages while retaining one underlying journey and workflow.

09

Notifications and communications

Trigger emails, messages and downstream actions at the right point in a service.

10

Reporting and operational data

Capture structured information your operational systems can use directly.

Operating model

Decentralised delivery. Central control.

A central digital function provides the platform, standards and reusable patterns while individual teams create and maintain the services they understand.

One shared platform
Central teams control
  • Platform access
  • Shared configuration
  • Governance and environments
  • Security patterns
  • Reusable components and patterns
Service teams control
  • Service content
  • Questions and data
  • Journey logic
  • Routine changes
  • Testing and iteration

Increase delivery capacity without requiring a central development team to build every service.

What is included

Product-led by design

Cloud Estate includes the Govform platform, shared estate capacity, Darcy AI and private ticket support, and an onboarding support call so capable organisations can operate a large portfolio economically.

It is a good fit when:

  • Your own teams will design and manage services
  • You want reusable organisation-wide patterns
  • You can use documented integrations and platform features
  • Private support tickets with a 2-working-day response target meet your needs
  • Standard security and compliance evidence meets your assurance process
Not the right model?

Choose Institutional for a high-touch relationship

The number of services does not make you Institutional. The operating relationship does.

  • Dedicated account or service management
  • Custom SLAs or governance meetings
  • Bespoke solution, identity or integration architecture
  • Customer-specific security assurance
  • Migration programmes or managed delivery
Explore Institutional
Move at your pace

Move an existing form estate to Govform

You do not have to migrate everything at once. Start with a new programme, a business unit or a group of ageing services and expand from there.

Govform can coexist with existing platforms while your teams establish common service patterns. If you need a migration factory or managed redesign programme, we can scope that through Institutional and professional services.
