Our flagship product, the Hakaya Studio is THE FIRST integrated development environment (IDE) for building and running Software Factories. Hakaya Studio automates the generation of high quality code from user-defined models into different programming technologies such as .NET, Java, and Open Source and a multitude of platforms such as Desktop, Web, and PDA. The Hakaya Studio consists of two highly integrated components that represent the core of the product: - Software Factory Builder
Build software factory designers utilizing the concept modeling language (CML) tool, code generation templates and code modifiers.
 - Software Factory Runner
Run software factories designers and create models with CML concepts and relations. Build the models and instantly generate application code These components provide developers with the capability to automatically generate any application. To further increase productivity, the Studio is shipped with pre-packaged factories that allow developers to start building business and databases applications instantly. BizForge is one such factory. Designed by the Hakaya team, BizForge generates 100% of application forms, database schemas, stored procedures, layers, security and reports. The following figure shows the components of the studio along with their interactions. 
The current release of the Studio ships with two factories: CML and BizForge . Future releases are planned to include more software factories to handle IVR, Game, PLC, Server and Mobile Applications.

Users of the Studio can generate applications from visual models in a simple manner. The generated applications can be in any programming language and can run on any platform. The Studio supports the above features, and many others, through four modules: - Concept Modeling Tool
- Factory builder
- Factory runner
- Pre-packaged software factories
The Concept Modeling tool provides a framework for building Concept Modeling Languages (CML) that allow the designer to define concepts and relations associated with a business. The CML interacts with user-defined code generation templates and code modifiers to generate the software factory in the Factory builder. The factory is then passed to the Factory runner to generate the application code. As a value-added service, the Studio is shipped with a pre-packaged factory (BizForge) for business and database applications. Users can develop applications by: - Building their own factories from scratch
- Utilizing pre-packaged factories especially the BizForge factory
There are three easy steps to build a software factory using the Hakaya Studio: 1. Define your concept modeling language (CML). CML produces the artifacts (Concepts) and relations that would later be used by the application developer running the software factory designer. 
2. Write code generation templates. These would be used to convert a constructed model into actual code. 
3. Use the code modifier builder to extend your templates to implement new technologies, and platforms. Code modifiers appear to the application developer as extended options for generating his models accordingly. Now the software factory is ready to run within the Hakaya Studio Runner. Utilizing pre-packaged factories means further productivity improvements. BizForge which is the main pre-packaged factory is extremely user friendly and can be used to generate a wide range of applications. The following is a representation of the BizForge factory. 
The productivity benefits resulting from utilizing the out-of-the-box BizForge factory can be easily achieved by following six easy steps, which require no coding, to build business and database applications: - Construct the business entity model
- Define views and forms types and fields
- Create models of functional workflows representing business logic
- Set user access permissions
- Develop user interfaces utilizing supported international languages
- Build and generate code
There are three licensing levels for the Studio, - Enterprise
- Professional
- OEM
