The product · Two phases
Understand it first. Then convert it.
Phase 01
Understand
Kathalyst reads your codebase and generates documentation and traceable validation, so every module is legible before anything changes.
- Plain-English documentation for every program
- Validation traced back to source lines
- Audit-ready records for compliance review
- Clarity on modules nobody has touched in years
COMPUTE-INTEREST calculates monthly interest on the account balance and caps it at the account's maximum interest amount.
Then, Phase 02. Legacy code is converted to modern Java or Python automatically. No manual rewrite, and every converted module traces back to its source.
COMPUTE-INTEREST. COMPUTE WS-INTEREST = WS-BALANCE * WS-RATE / 12. IF WS-INTEREST > WS-CAP MOVE WS-CAP TO WS-INTEREST END-IF.
BigDecimal computeInterest(BigDecimal balance, BigDecimal rate) { BigDecimal interest = balance .multiply(rate) .divide(TWELVE, MathContext.DECIMAL64); if (interest.compareTo(cap) > 0) { interest = cap; } return interest;}

How an engagement works
Pilot one module
We run Phase 1 on a module of your own code so you can judge the output first.
Review the evidence
Read the generated documentation and validation trace with your engineers.
Scope the full run
Extend to the wider codebase, with conversion paths scoped to your stack.
Convert and hand over
Auto-convert, validate, and hand over documented modern code your team owns.
Read one module of your own code before you commit to anything.
