About

COBOL Colleague transforms legacy COBOL systems into navigable knowledge by using deterministic AI and knowledge graph technology to decode, document, and explain critical business logic with verified understanding, no hallucinations, and no guessing. It maps legacy code into clear Business Functions, giving teams a reliable way to understand what their systems actually do, where business rules live, and how changes may affect the application. Instead of spending months documenting systems manually, COBOL Colleague captures institutional knowledge automatically by slicing code to reveal complete business functions, including every derivation, condition, and dependency that influences each output field. Its proprietary analysis untangles complex COBOL structures such as REDEFINES, CALLS, PERFORMS, and GOTOs, isolating data transformation logic and producing natural language documentation that technical and business stakeholders can share.

About

IBM Bob is an AI SDLC partner and an agentic integrated development environment designed to transform how developers work with real codebases. It is not just another autocomplete tool; it helps teams move from “help me code” to “help me modernize, secure, and scale.” Bob augments existing workflows across the software development lifecycle, helping users write, test, upgrade, refactor, debug, document, and secure software with confidence. Developers can turn natural language into working code, use single-line and multi-line code completion, clean up and fix existing code automatically, ask questions about a codebase, automate repetitive workflows, and scaffold new files or entire projects. Bob includes specialized modes that tailor its behavior for different tasks, including Code mode for writing and modifying code, Ask mode for explanations, Plan mode for designing before implementation, Advanced mode for complex tasks, and Orchestrator mode for coordinating multi-step projects.
