Modernization Planner is an AI worker that generates detailed IT migration roadmaps by analyzing legacy infrastructure and resource availability.
It reduces project planning timelines by 70% and enables 5x engineering velocity.
What is Modernization Planner?
- Autonomous Architecture Strategist. The Modernization Planner is an AI worker that functions as an autonomous architect of change. It ingests technical documentation, scans code repositories, and evaluates team capacities to generate comprehensive, dynamic migration plans instantly.
- Analysis Paralysis Killer. Traditional planning for modernizing legacy systems is a multi-month ordeal involving armies of consultants conducting manual discovery and drafting static Gantt charts obsolete the moment they're published. This "analysis paralysis" delays digital transformation and leaves businesses vulnerable.
- Agentic Orchestration. The agent operates at the intersection of technical assessment and operational logistics. It collaborates with specialized sub-agents - assessment agents for dependency mapping - to ensure roadmaps are grounded in technical reality rather than optimistic guesswork.
- 80/20 Optimization. The agent handles 80% of routine planning and coordination, while humans focus on the 20% of high-value architectural decision-making. It breaks high-level objectives into discrete, executable tasks assignable to engineers or downstream coding agents.
Replaces:
- Manual discovery workshops mapping legacy system dependencies.
- Static Gantt chart creation that fails to adapt to execution velocity.
- Resource allocation spreadsheets juggling developer availability.
- Risk assessment meetings with manual code-level scanning.
- Sprint planning administration creating Jira tickets manually.

Why Modernization Planner?
- Slash Planning Timelines by 70%. Traditional planning cycles drag on for quarters. AI-driven planning tools shrink enterprise process cycle timelines by up to 70%, allowing businesses to unlock new technology value months or years sooner.
- Increase Engineering Velocity by 5x. By generating precise, dependency-aware roadmaps, the agent clears the path for frictionless development. This streamlined planning contributes to a 5x increase in overall engineering velocity.
- Eliminate Black Box Risk. Migration projects fail because of unknown dependencies in legacy code. The agent works with assessment agents to scan millions of lines, creating comprehensive maps that account for actual complexity rather than assumed complexity.
- Optimize Resource Utilization. The agent autonomously develops team structures and allocates resources based on technical requirements. Human experts handle high-value architectural reviews while routine tasks queue for automated agents.
How It Works
Workflow Automation
How Modernization Planner integrates with your systems
Scans IT infrastructure on a schedule, uses AI to evaluate technical debt, and generates prioritized migration roadmaps for leadership.
- Ingestion and Discovery. The agent connects to repositories and documentation, deploying assessment agents to scan legacy codebases (COBOL, Java), identifying dependencies, technical debt, and business logic. It builds a "digital twin" of the current state.
- Strategy and Architecture. Based on discovery data, a functionality agent drafts the target-state architecture (cloud-native microservices). It determines optimal migration strategy - re-host, re-platform, or re-factor - for each component.
- Tactical Planning. The agent breaks roadmaps into actionable units - detailed sprint plans, team structures, task assignments. It creates dynamic schedules accounting for dependencies, ensuring foundational modules are modernized first.
- Orchestration and Adaptation. As migration proceeds, the agent monitors progress in real-time. If blockers occur, it dynamically adjusts schedule and resource allocation, providing continuous visibility for management by exception.
