For decades, browser-based enterprise software has operated under the tyranny of a simple yet stifling norm: one page at a time. Whether you’re managing data, navigating forms, or switching tasks, the browser window acts more like a toll booth than a workspace.
ProBuilt Software thinks it’s time to bulldoze that booth.
The company today announced it’s opening licensing access to its patent-pending Floating Forms and Data Stacking architecture—a major departure from the long-standing, page-locked model that has defined web-based platforms since the Netscape era.
And this isn’t just a UI refresh. It’s a wholesale architectural shift aimed at eliminating the single-window, single-context bottleneck that has slowed productivity across industries.
“For companies looking to gain or protect market share, this is the shot they cannot afford to miss,” said ProBuilt CEO Michael Till.
Floating What?
At the core of this shake-up is Free-Floating Forms, a system that allows users to open unlimited, interactive forms within the same browser window. Each form can talk to the database, to other forms, and even to other users—all in real time. Think of it like tabbed browsing inside a single web app, but on steroids.
For power users used to desktop-style multitasking in tools like Excel or FileMaker, this will feel like home. For everyone else, it’s a quantum leap forward from clicking through modal windows and waiting for reloads.
And Data Stacking?
The second pillar of this model, Data Stacking, kills the old “one list at a time” problem dead. Instead of constantly opening and closing views, users can stack multiple datasets—think inventory, customer profiles, and invoices—all in parallel.
No more context switching. No more “Where was I again?” fatigue. Just seamless, concurrent access to what you need, when you need it.
Why This Matters Now
Cloud software is long overdue for a new foundation. While back-end technologies have evolved rapidly (see: serverless computing, AI-enhanced analytics), front-end interactions remain stuck in the mid-2000s.
ProBuilt’s dual-pronged architecture brings true multitasking into the browser in a way that rivals—like Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, and Oracle NetSuite—simply haven’t cracked yet. Most of those systems still rely on page-based navigation, heavy modals, or tab-switching to manage complexity.
This new model echoes the spirit of Electron-based desktop apps like Slack or Notion, but it lives entirely in the browser—no installs, no downloads, and crucially, no limits.
Implications for Enterprise SaaS
If widely adopted, ProBuilt’s tech could drive a new generation of SaaS platforms designed not just for access but for efficiency. This opens the door to:
- Drastically faster workflows
- Higher user satisfaction (read: less burnout)
- Reduced context-switching errors
- More flexible UI design paradigms
For ISVs and platform developers, licensing this tech means leapfrogging legacy UX constraints without reinventing the back-end.
