BotMan AI develops Codikel, an AI-powered platform that modernizes legacy enterprise systems by building a knowledge graph of the entire application and generating a new, re-architected codebase rather than simply translating old code. The platform claims 50-90% cost and time savings on large migrations, with a deterministic 60+ step pipeline that guarantees 100% scope coverage. Codikel includes Barbara, an AI agent that answers technical and functional questions about the system directly from the IDE.

Problem
Legacy enterprise systems are costly and time-consuming to migrate, with traditional manual migrations taking years and carrying high risk of human error. Rule-based translation tools only convert code line-by-line, losing the business logic embedded in decades of evolution, resulting in a new system that still needs rewriting within a few years.
Solution
BotMan AI provides Codikel, an AI-powered legacy modernization platform that combines knowledge graphs with generative AI to re-architect systems rather than translate them. Codikel first analyzes the entire system to build a comprehensive knowledge graph capturing dependencies, business logic, and data models. From this graph, it generates a modern microservices architecture based on the client's technology standards, producing code in stacks like Spring Boot, React, or .NET 8. The platform includes Barbara, an AI agent that answers technical and functional questions about the system directly from the IDE, and delivers production-ready applications through a deterministic pipeline of 60+ steps.
Target Audience
Primary customers are large enterprises with legacy systems such as Oracle Forms applications, as well as technology partners seeking to execute enterprise-scale migrations. The platform targets organizations that need to modernize critical business applications without losing embedded business logic.
Features
- Knowledge graph construction that maps dependencies, business logic, and data models across the entire legacy system
- Re-architecture into modern microservices rather than literal code translation, with automatic dead code elimination
- Deterministic 60+ step AI-powered pipeline that guarantees 100% scope coverage and 50-90% cost savings on large migrations
- Code generation for modern stacks including Spring Boot, React, .NET 8, or Oracle APEX
- Barbara, an IDE-integrated AI agent that answers technical and functional questions about the migrated system
- Dedicated product for Oracle Forms migration with support for web architectures, addressing the end of extended support for legacy Forms systems
