Summary

Reactors are a serverless compute service from Basis Theory designed to help developers process, analyze, and share sensitive data without exposing it to their existing applications or systems. They address the compliance, security, and access constraints associated with data such as payment card information, personally identifiable information, bank account details, and confidential business records, which can otherwise limit product functionality and require costly secure environments. Developers invoke Reactors through HTTPS requests to run Node.js-based Reactor Formulas against tokenized data inside an isolated Basis Theory Tenant, inheriting the platform’s PCI Level 1 and SOC 2 controls. Formulas can be pre-built Official Reactors for common integrations and operations or custom code, currently in beta, for tasks such as generating documents, transferring files through SFTP, analyzing sensitive data, and sharing controlled outputs with third parties.
