Partner with Datacom to innovate faster, operate smarter, and support compliance in complex, regulated environments, giving your organisation a competitive advantage through differentiated, agile and effective software engineering solutions.

Datacom is pioneering a radical shift in enterprise software modernisation by deploying autonomous AI engineering teams capable of rebuilding legacy systems at unprecedented speed and scale.

The revolutionary role AI is playing in app modernisation

Many of Datacom’s customers are in the midst of refreshing legacy systems, but cost is a major barrier to modernisation plans. With AI agents now able to handle many of the tasks traditionally performed by human developers, business analysts and testers, New Zealand's ageing IT infrastructure can be rapidly refreshed at much lower cost.

"The challenge for organisations still using legacy systems is that often they have become too expensive, slow and difficult to upgrade. Rather than taking the usual developer-led approach to modernising these systems, we’re taking an AI-led approach that enables our team to deploy AI agents to write up to 70% of code, leading to cost savings of between 30%-50% for our customers - in some cases even more - and a significant reduction in time spent to complete the project."
