Essay ยท The legacy problem
The mainframe was never the problem. Nobody could read it.
Phase 01
Understand
Kathalyst reads your codebase and generates documentation and traceable validation, so every module is legible before anything changes.
Phase 02
Auto-convert
Legacy code is converted to modern Java or Python automatically. No manual rewrite, and every converted module traces back to its source.
Who it is for
The inheritors
Banks, insurance, asset management and trading firms, plus any engineering team carrying a decade-old codebase.
“We make your legacy codebase legible and then we modernize it for you.”
What changes when the code can be read
- 01SpeedAutomated conversion removes months of manual rewrite work.
- 02No legacy expertiseModernize without hiring scarce COBOL specialists. Kathalyst does the conversion.
- 03De-risked migrationCode is understood, validated, then converted. Every step is traceable and auditable.
- 04Knowledge independenceNo more bus-factor risk from the one or two engineers who know the system.
Read one module of your own code before you commit to anything.
