Why Adapts

Understanding at enterprise scale.

Continuous context. Critical logic made clear. Agents grounded in your estate.

Results

Measured impact at enterprise scale

18 months → 1 month
Core banking modernization

A large regulated bank used Adapts to accelerate their core banking modernization. Adapts mapped 12 million lines of legacy COBOL, identifying critical business logic that manual discovery had missed for over a year.

3 weeks → 2 days
New architect onboarding, fully productive

An enterprise engineering team used Adapts to onboard new architects to a complex microservices platform. Instead of three weeks of tribal knowledge transfer, architects reached full productivity in two days with grounded docs and dependency maps from Adapts.

Months → weeks
System behavior discovery for compliance audit

A regulated energy company needed to document every system interaction for a compliance audit. Adapts mapped system behaviors that would have taken months to trace manually.

Parallel system costs eliminated during migration

An insurance company was running legacy and modern systems in parallel at $200K/month. Adapts accelerated the migration, eliminating twelve months of parallel operation.

The cost factor

AI budgets are breaking early

Agentic tasks burn tokens on rediscovery. Grounded on the Adapts map, agents use 80% fewer tokens in production.

The scaling factor

Agents hit a wall. A map does not.

Beyond a few hundred repositories, agents sample and guess. A map query costs the same at 5 repos or 10,000.

1 to 5 repositories · Agents thrive

The map adds little here, so we switch it off.

10 to a few hundred · Cost climbs

Lookup chains cross services; every task pays more to find its footing.

Beyond a few hundred · Coverage collapses

No context window holds the estate, so the agent samples and guesses.

AGENTS EXPLORING, NO MAP

READING THE ADAPTS Adapts MAP

$2 per task · ≈ $0.5M a year, answers indexed and current

Per-task figures are the chart endpoints; annual figures scale the cost model to 200 developers. Illustrative.

The languages factor

One map spans the mainframe and the microservice

70+ languages, legacy to modern, plus the config that binds them. One impact analysis can trace a COBOL copybook to the API that consumes it.

70+ PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

COBOL · CICS · RPG · Lotus Notes · Java · .NET · C/C++ · Python · Go · Rust · SQL · GraphQL · SPARQL · Terraform · YAML · XML

The standardization factor

One deterministic answer, organization-wide

The map is built from the code and re-indexed on every commit, so the same question returns the same answer for architects, developers, agents, program managers, and analysts.

Grounded enterprise context

The layer agents stand on

Adapts is a living code ontology that grounds agents instead of replacing them. Runs where your code runs, with no data egress.
