Legacy Whisperer is a full-stack AI development tool built to solve one of the most expensive problems in enterprise software: legacy code modernization. The average company spends 60-80% of its development budget maintaining old codebases. Legacy Whisperer compresses weeks of manual refactoring work into minutes by leveraging IBM Bob's full repository context understanding and IBM watsonx.ai's foundation models. How it works: 1. Developer uploads a legacy repository via GitHub URL, ZIP file, or local path 2. IBM Bob analyzes the complete codebase — architecture, dependencies, risk areas, and anti-patterns 3. The AI pipeline generates a detailed modernization plan with prioritized issues by severity 4. watsonx.ai rewrites each file with modern patterns, respecting existing dependencies 5. The system packages a modernized repo (.zip) and technical report (.docx) ready to download

BlackBook is an Enterprise Decision Firewall powered by multi-agent AI. It intercepts internal enterprise actions in real time — data exports, privilege escalations, after-hours access, configuration changes — and evaluates them through a coordinated pipeline of six specialized AI agents before any action is allowed to proceed.At its core, BlackBook combines the reasoning power of Gemini 2.5 Flash with a deterministic Policy Engine that operates independently from the AI model. Gemini's Risk Analyst evaluates each action in context, generating a risk score and recommendation. The Policy Engine then applies corporate rules — versioned, auditable, and explainable — and overrides the AI recommendation when necessary. Every decision records three distinct layers: what the AI recommended, what the policy enforced, and what a human approved or rejected.
