Legacy system modernisation
for UK businesses
We rebuild outdated business software using AI to quickly understand how your current system works — so you get modern software in months, not years, at a fixed price.
Our founders and team have spent 25+ years working on complex systems for leading organisations
signs your legacy system is costing you money.
Most business leaders know their legacy software is a risk. But the cost feels uncertain, the disruption feels too high, and the right moment never seems to arrive.
We help businesses break through that paralysis with a clear, phased approach — starting with a fixed-price assessment that removes the guesswork.
How we can help, from first review to long-term support
We can help at different stages of the journey — from assessing your current systems to modernising them in phases and supporting them over time.
Built by people who've done this before
Our founders spent over 25 years building technology at some of the world's leading companies. They've seen what works at enterprise scale — and they know why most of it doesn't work for smaller businesses.

How we deliver, step by step
Whichever path you start on, this is how the work gets done.
Free discovery call
Approx. 30 minutes
We review your system, current constraints, and business priorities. You get a clear view of possible approaches and what the next step should be.
Requirements gathering
Approx. 2 weeks
We analyse the legacy system through documentation, video walkthroughs, code, or binary review. Output: validated requirements based on how the system actually works.
Working Proof of Concept
Approx. 2 weeks (Depends on a system size)
We build a functional proof of concept so you can test the approach before committing to full implementation.
Production build
Approx. 1–3 months
We turn the proof of concept into a production-ready system with integrations, business logic, testing, and deployment.
How we deliver, step by step
Whichever path you start on, this is how the work gets done.
Why we deliver faster thana from-scratch rebuild.
A typical rebuild means years of discovery, system mapping, and writing code no one sees.We shorten the first two, so your team sees working features in months.
Same end result as a traditional rebuild, delivered in a fraction of the time, without losing the business logic that took you years to build.
Ready-made building blocks.
Every project starts with our pre-built foundation — so we skip months of setup and jump straight to your unique business logic.
- Multi-language & currency
Multi-language and currency support, with locale switching and regional pricing built in from day one.
- Responsive design
Responsive design that adapts to mobile, tablet, and desktop without extra development cycles.
- Demo & test data
Demo and test data pre-loaded so your team can explore the system before a single line of custom code ships.
- CI/CD pipeline
CI/CD pipeline that tests and deploys every code change automatically, catching issues before they reach production.
- Auth, roles & audit
Auth, roles, and audit logging, giving you secure access control and a full trail of who changed what and when.

AI-assisted modernisation
months
We use AI differently.
Most companies mention AI in their marketing and stop there. We built our entire delivery process around it — but not in the way you might think.
We don't use AI to write your software.
We don't hand your project to a chatbot and hope for the best. AI-generated code without deep understanding of your business leads to the same problems you already have — just in newer technology.
We use AI to read your old system.
Our AI tools analyse your existing software — source code, compiled programs, even screen recordings — so we understand exactly how your business works before we write a single line of new code.
Source code analysis
AI extracts business logic and data models directly from your existing codebase — even old languages like Delphi, VB6, or COBOL.
Binary & form extraction
Pulls screen layouts and resources from compiled programs — Windows dialogs, Delphi forms, Access databases.
Screen-recording capture
Recognises workflows from recordings of your team using the system — with voice commentary to capture the "why".
Your data stays yours.
Industries
Every sector has its own systems, constraints, and reasons why modernisation keeps getting delayed. We understand the specific technology landscape in each one.
Manufacturing
Legacy ERP & shop-floor modernisation with zero production downtime.

Two ways to take the next step
Book a free discovery call
We'll get on a 30-minute call and ask you straightforward questions: What's slow? What breaks? What do your team work around instead of use? Which bits are you scared to touch?
By the end of the call you'll have a clearer picture of where the real problems are — and whether modernisation is the right answer for your business right now. No slides, no sales pitch, no commitment.
Want to check your system yourself first?
You don't have to talk to anyone yet. Answer 10 quick questions about your current software and get a scored report showing which parts are most at risk — and what to do about each one.
Named systems
Legacy systems we help modernise
Most clients arrive with a specific system in mind — an ageing ERP, finance suite, database or bespoke app. We publish dedicated pages on the named systems we cover most often, with the risks, dependencies and decision options laid out.
