ILLUSTRATIVE CLIENT SCENARIO · AI-ASSISTED MODERNIZATION

AI Helped Us Understand
a Legacy Application

Before modernizing a system, understand the business rules it already protects.

The problem: working software, missing context.

Imagine a client with a business-critical C# application maintained by several developers over many years. Orders still process, but documentation is thin. Before moving to Azure, the team needs to know which rules must survive the transition.

A small pricing method reveals the challenge: preferred customers receive a discount, but the reasoning behind that decision is not documented. Rewriting it without understanding it could change customer invoices.

AI helps ask better questions.

With client-approved tools and permitted code, AI can summarize the method, identify dependencies, and suggest tests. An engineer checks those suggestions against the source, calling code, and business requirements. AI cannot tell us whether an undocumented rule is still the right policy.

1. Inspect the existing rule

public decimal CalculateTotal(Order order)
{
    var total = order.Items.Sum(
        item => item.Price * item.Quantity);

    if (order.Customer.IsPreferred)
        total *= 0.90m;

    return total;
}

The code applies a 10% discount to preferred customers. It does not establish tax, rounding, or refund policy; those questions need further investigation.

2. Capture behavior before changing it

[Theory]
[InlineData(true, 90)]
[InlineData(false, 100)]
public void PreservesExistingPricing(
    bool preferred, int expected)
{
    var order = MakeOrder(
        preferred, price: 50m, quantity: 2);

    Assert.Equal((decimal)expected,
        new PricingService().CalculateTotal(order));
}

Abbreviated xUnit example: MakeOrder is a test fixture helper; Order and PricingService represent the application's existing types.

The next step: validate, then modernize.

In this scenario, the team would confirm the discount policy with the business owner, document the rule, and add tests for relevant edge cases. Only then would it extract or refactor the pricing logic and compare behavior before and after the change.

The intended outcome: a reviewed rule inventory, regression tests, and a clearer migration plan. AI supports the investigation; engineers and business owners remain responsible for the decisions.

BEFORE WE TALK

A few common questions.

Do we need to replace our entire application?

No. We start by understanding what works and where change is needed. Incremental improvements may be the most practical option.

Can you work with our existing developers?

Yes. Advisory, code reviews, reference implementations, and engineering coaching can support your team’s delivery.

Is the discovery call a paid assessment?

No. The initial 20-minute conversation is free. A detailed assessment has an agreed scope and fee before work begins.

How do you use AI?

AI can assist with code understanding, documentation, and development. Outputs require review and validation, and use of client material is agreed before work begins.
