Custom workflow creation
Build the research workflows your institution needs.
Not every research process fits inside traditional research administration software. Build no-code forms, workflows, and applications for the processes that make your institution unique.
What this means for research administration:
- Create research forms and approval workflows without code
- Support local processes that are unique to your institution
- Route requests, reviews, and approvals to the right people
- Track where work is happening and where it gets stuck
- Extend research administration without adding another separate tool

Built for the research lifecycle
One platform from proposal to award and beyond.

Custom workflow creation is included at no additional cost with any Kuali solution purchase, giving teams a flexible way to support custom forms and processes as needs evolve.
AI-native in action
A platform that works alongside your research team.
Research administration moves through many people, deadlines, approvals, sponsor requirements, and institutional policies. When that work lives on one flexible platform, our native AI can help research teams ask questions, identify delays, summarize updates, and create workflows using the AI tools their institution has vetted and approved.
