AI-assisted Pre-Modernization Intelligence for Legacy Enterprises
We recover logic before modernization.
Palimix helps enterprises uncover hidden business logic, dependencies, and risks before modernizing critical legacy systems.
The problem
Critical business logic is hiding in legacy systems.
Many critical applications are decades old. Their original developers and subject matter experts are often no longer available. Changing these systems without understanding how they behave can introduce business, financial, and compliance risk.
What these systems often contain:
- Undocumented business rules
- Operational workarounds
- Hidden application and data dependencies
- Complex financial or compliance logic
- Incomplete or contradictory documentation
What PMX does
We help enterprises understand hidden business rules, dependencies, and risks before changing critical legacy systems.
PMX is Palimix's governed methodology for pre-modernization intelligence. It analyzes legacy source material and produces structured findings for business and technical decision-makers.
Business logic and workflows
Business behavior identified in source evidence, documented in business terms.
Technical and data dependencies
How programs, data, and interfaces depend on each other.
Risk findings
Operational and business risks, with financial and compliance exposure where the evidence supports it.
Evidence traceability
Findings linked back to the source material they come from.
Assumptions and unknowns
Contradictions, assumptions, and open questions stated plainly, not hidden.
Modernization readiness
Evidence-grounded intelligence to inform modernization planning and decisions.
How PMX works
From source evidence to governed intelligence.
-
01
Source evidence
We start from the system's own material: source code, data definitions, and documentation.
-
02
Business logic discovery
We identify rules and workflows supported by available source evidence.
-
03
Risk and dependency analysis
We identify how components interact and where change carries risk.
-
04
Governed intelligence
We deliver evidence-grounded findings, with assumptions and unresolved questions clearly identified.
Who we help
For teams about to change systems they did not build.
- Enterprises planning legacy modernization
- CIOs and technology leaders
- Application owners
- Cloud and AI modernization teams
- Systems integrators and technology partners
AI and cloud ecosystems
Vendor-neutral by design.
PMX is designed for use with compatible AI models and enterprise AI platforms while keeping evidence governance independent of the underlying technology.
The intelligence we deliver can be explored with an AI platform you already use, subject to its capabilities and your governance controls.
