Full migration is risky
Rebuilding years of Domino logic, data, actions, and security rules is expensive, slow, and difficult to validate.

The problem
Your Domino Applications Still Run the Business. The Web Experience Feels Outdated.
Many HCL™ Domino™ applications still support critical business workflows, but their classic Web interfaces are visually outdated, table-based, and slow to navigate. Full migration is expensive and risky. Manual CSS and JavaScript redesign is slow and hard to scale.
DomintAI gives Domino teams a third path: modernize the application experience while keeping the proven Domino backend.
For Designer-built or Designer-maintained applications, teams can keep building the business logic in Domino Designer and use DomintAI to modernize the Web experience around the working application.
Manual redesign does not scale
Designer-based CSS and JavaScript work can improve a few pages, but every form still needs analysis, layout work, testing, and maintenance.
Old UX limits adoption
Users expect semantic layouts, responsive screens, fewer old-style page jumps, and application flows that feel closer to modern web apps.
The solution
Upgrade the Application Experience. Keep the Domino Backend.
DomintAI is not a CSS skin. It is a backend-preserving modernization layer for Domino Web applications.
Semantic Layout Reconstruction
DomintAI analyzes fields, actions, views, sections, visibility regions, embedded views, rich text, attachments, and business surfaces before reconstructing the layout around application meaning.
Modern UI Design System
Apply consistent typography, spacing, cards, buttons, form sections, action bars, and responsive layouts across Domino Web applications.
SPA-like Runtime Experience
Reduce the old click-and-reload feeling with a smoother runtime experience while preserving Domino-owned execution, actions, state, and server behavior.
Modernization paths
Three Ways to Handle Legacy Domino Web Applications
| Option | What it means | Cost profile | Risk | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Do nothing | Keep the old Web UI. | €0 now | Growing UX, compliance, staffing, and adoption risk. | No modernization. |
| Manual Designer CSS/JS | Hand-code form-by-form improvements. | Consulting time per form. | Hard to scale and maintain. | Partial improvement. |
| Full migration | Rebuild outside Domino. | Project-based assessment. | High cost, long timeline, backend rewrite risk. | New platform. |
| DomintAI | Modernize the Web experience while preserving Domino. | €149-€299 / form public pricing. | Lower operational risk, rollback-ready. | Modern semantic SPA-like Domino experience. |
How it works
A Repeatable Workflow for Classic Domino Web Modernization
DomintAI turns manual form-by-form redesign into a structured modernization workflow.
01
Analyze the Existing Domino Web Application
Start from an existing Domino Web application and identify the business screens, actions, sections, and user workflows that need a modern experience.
What this means
The assessment focuses on what users see, what they need to do, and which Domino behavior must remain intact.
02
Reconstruct a Modern Semantic Experience
DomintAI creates a modern application-style presentation that organizes fields, sections, actions, and related content around business meaning.
What this means
The result is a cleaner semantic UI direction with consistent layout, spacing, typography, controls, and responsive behavior.
03
Preserve Existing Domino Behavior
Domino remains the source of truth for business behavior. Existing actions, submits, lookups, visibility rules, refresh behavior, and custom JavaScript continue to be respected.
What this means
The modernized experience is designed to preserve proven application behavior rather than replace customer business logic.
04
Deploy and Roll Back Safely
Deploy the modernized experience to your Domino environment with rollback-ready resources and clear separation between modern UI output and original Domino behavior.
What this means
Teams can review the result, decide when to roll it out, and keep a clear path back to the original Domino experience.
Designer-built applications
Build or Maintain the Business in Designer. Modernize the Web Experience with DomintAI.
This is an extension of the same Domino Web modernization path. Domino teams can keep using Designer for business logic and use DomintAI to upgrade the Web experience after the application workflow already runs.
Keep Designer for Business Logic
Teams can continue using HCL Domino Designer to build or maintain forms, fields, views, actions, agents, permissions, and workflow behavior.
Preserve the Working Application
The Domino application remains the source of truth for data, logic, actions, submits, lookups, refresh behavior, and security.
Modernize the Web Experience
When the Domino Web application correctly expresses the business workflow, DomintAI can reconstruct the experience into a modern, semantic, SPA-like application layer.
Standard supported scope
Built for Real-World Domino Web Applications
DomintAI is designed for Domino Web applications, not only simple forms. These are part of the standard supported modernization scope for Domino Web applications.
Classic Domino Web Forms
OpenForm / OpenDocument / EditDocument
Role-aware page adaptation
Embedded views
Tabsets / tabbed layouts
Rich text
Attachments
Computed fields
Read-only display fields
Complex hide-when visibility
Lookup-driven fields
Agent refresh / same-page refresh behavior
Standard Domino actions
Third-party JavaScript component libraries with manual support
Host-first Preservation
Host-first Assessment for Custom JavaScript and Third-party Widgets
DomintAI can support custom JavaScript widgets and third-party UI plugins through a host-first adaptation approach, but this is scoped case by case. Customers provide the original page, source materials, and behavior context, then DomintAI evaluates the specific component and adapts the surrounding modernized experience where practical.
This is not automatic coverage for every third-party control, custom widget, or customer-written component. Native reimplementation or deeper component-specific work requires separate assessment and agreement.
jQuery grids for assessment
Custom calendars for assessment
Custom lookup widgets for assessment
Custom modals for assessment
Third-party tree controls for assessment
Third-party tab controls for assessment
Customer-written JavaScript widgets for assessment
Not a migration project
No Backend Rewrite. No Data Migration. No Business Logic Replacement.
DomintAI modernizes the front-end application experience while preserving the existing Domino backend, data model, workflow logic, security model, actions, agents, and deployment environment.
Keep Domino
Your NSF, forms, views, agents, data, and deployment remain in place.
Preserve Behavior
Domino remains the execution source of truth for actions, submits, lookups, refreshes, and business logic.
Modernize Experience
Users get a modern semantic UI and SPA-like application flow without a risky platform migration.

Have a Notes Client-only application?
Notes Client-only applications are not directly modernized under standard per-form pricing. However, if the application is first exposed or converted into a classic Domino Web application, DomintAI can then modernize its Web forms and views into responsive, modern, SPA-like pages while preserving the Domino backend.
The Notes Client-to-Web conversion is separate from standard DomintAI modernization pricing.
