Tej Core

The self-hosted core your website runs on.

Your database, content, rendering, and AI workflows run inside infrastructure you own and deploy. Tej Core is the foundation under every Alapan build, so the platform is yours to keep rather than rented from a hosted vendor.

One core you deploy and keep, not a hosted subscription.

The foundation

A core you host. Not a cloud subscription.

Tej Core puts the database, routing, and infrastructure under your control. We build the foundation. You own it.

Data sovereignty

Your database, media, and AI configuration live in your own server environment, on AWS, GCP, or bare metal. You own the data layer outright, with no third-party database in the path.

App Router engine

A headless Next.js core built on React Server Components. Pages render from the edge and query the database directly, so they load fast without an external API hop.

Scoped APIs and keys

Booking endpoints, Relationship Intelligence streams, and chatbot prompts are scoped inside the core. Keys for external agents are signed, and every payload is audited from one control panel.

Connected modules

One core. Every module runs on it.

Each module reads the same database, routing, access control, and deployment as the core, so capabilities share one source of truth instead of integrating across tools.

AI Engine

Provider-agnostic AI under every database event, routed through your Brand Soul with reviewed output.

Built-in Chatbot

An assistant grounded in your approved content and knowledge base, not a generic script.

Relationship Intelligence

Visitor signals joined to contact records, scored and summarised inside one relationship record.

AI Visibility Engine

Schema, metadata, llms.txt, and crawler readiness so search and AI systems can read the site accurately.

Owned Analytics

First-party events, attribution, and intent in a measurement layer you own.

Agentic Interfaces

Scoped APIs, agent access, and audited actions for approved external agents.

Privacy Infrastructure

Consent, DSAR workflows, retention, and audit trails built into the platform.

Specification

Standard parts. No proprietary lock-in.

Under the hood, Tej Core is a standard Node.js application: React, SQL, and REST or GraphQL APIs. Schemas are defined in TypeScript, and every table generates its own endpoints and a typed client.

Database

SQLite or PostgreSQL

Rendering

Next.js App Router, React Server Components

Discoverability

JSON-LD schema, llms.txt, llm.html

Privacy

Server-side consent, hashed PII

Own the foundation

Build on infrastructure you keep. Not rented land.

Tej Core ships with every Alapan build as the self-hosted foundation for your data, content, privacy controls, and agent-ready interfaces.
