# Cornerstone MicroApps for Rich Data and Action Inside Your HR Platform

Cornerstone stores a wealth of data. Training records, certifications, compliance, performance, career paths, team structures, and learning histories.

Cornerstone MicroApps are modular applications that surface seamlessly inside your platform and connect directly to live data. They turn that data into clear, focused views and task-ready actions. Connected through Cornerstone’s APIs, they bring everything together in one place. No exports. No extra tools. Just instant access for managers, employees, and HR.

Runs directly in your HR platform

Because the data is already there. The right views just weren’t.

## MicroApps. Major impact.

Cornerstone MicroApps are modular applications that surface seamlessly inside your platform. Each one is built for a specific use case, bringing everything into one focused view designed for real work.

They adapt to the people using them. Managers see their teams, employees see what requires attention, and HR gains visibility across the organization. You can start with one MicroApp or combine several into a setup that grows with your needs.

Deployed on Cornerstone custom pages and built to work directly in your environment.

Everyone sees what’s relevant to them, without digging through pages or reports.

Beyond customization

## MicroApps expand what Cornerstone can do

Most Cornerstone customization focuses on how the platform looks. Branding, layouts, navigation, and content.

MicroApps go further. They introduce fully functional applications that work with live data and support real tasks in practice. Instead of adjusting how Cornerstone looks, they expand what it can actually do.

### Traditional customization vs MicroApps
