# Extract business rules from mainframe code

Accelerate your modernization timeline by automatically reverse engineering your application, eliminating thousands of hours of manual research

Get a demo



## Control your mainframe future

Analyze

AI-powered static analysis builds a knowledge base from your code, revealing architecture, patterns, and hidden logic.

Inventory

Swimm creates a living inventory of programs, modules, and dependencies with explanatory names.

Assess

Uncover business logic buried in legacy code.
See how your system works — and where change is needed.

Spec

Turn insights into action. Plan migrations, write specs, and align teams around clean, modern architecture.

## Mainframe code unlocked like
never before

### Map of your system

Get a complete overview of your codebase’s
architecture, including programs, modules, screens,
jobs, and their relationships. Document business logic
of programs while ignoring boilerplate code.



### Understand dependencies

Automatically generate diagrams with clear
explanations and context. Track user screens,
variables, and job flows to easily understand
how variables get values and users reach
screens.



### Create specs

Reverse engineer your business rules giving non-
technical stakeholders immediate access to the current
specifications.



## Clarity for modernization teams

CIO

Accelerate timelines, de-risk initiatives, free operational budgets

Product & Analyst

Create specs without relying on mainframe experts

Developer

Understand every part of the code and how it is connected
