Maia
Modernize with confidence.
AI-powered application modernization solution (Maia) helps organizations accelerate the modernization of their critical systems through an approach that combines artificial intelligence, human expertise, and governance.
When critical systems become barriers to evolution.
Legacy systems often support critical business processes and represent years of investment, knowledge, and expertise. However, as they evolve, maintaining, documenting, and modernizing them becomes increasingly complex.
Today, many organizations must contend with growing technology debt, a shortage of specialized resources, and the gradual loss of essential knowledge embedded in applications built on technologies such as COBOL, PowerBuilder, VB6, Delphi, Java, or older versions of .NET.
A structured approach to modernize with confidence
Maia is an AI-assisted application modernization solution that helps organizations document, understand, and modernize their critical systems in a structured and controlled manner.
Backed by COFOMO's expertise and a proven methodology, Maia accelerates modernization while preserving essential business knowledge.

The methodology at the heart of Maia.
Every Maia project follows a proven seven-step methodology, from discovery through post-implementation. This approach provides the traceability, governance, and validation required to modernize critical systems with confidence.
The 7 steps of Maia
Discovery: Inventory, analyze, and document existing systems.
Strategy and validation: Define the target architecture and validate modernization scenarios.
Execution plan: Establish the modernization roadmap and delivery priorities.
Code generation: Accelerate transformation using AI-powered capabilities.
Quality assurance: Validate the quality, compliance, and performance of deliverables.
Deployment: Prepare production deployment and integration into the target environment.
- Post-implementation: Facilitate knowledge transfer and operational continuity.
What particularly impressed us about Maia was its ability to accelerate delivery without ever compromising quality. With this secure and responsible AI platform, COFOMO was able to modernize multiple features of our application while maintaining full traceability from the initial analysis through to compliance testing. As a result, we increased both delivery speed and efficiency while preserving a high level of control, governance, and rigor throughout the entire process.
Kaleido
AI-powered acceleration, experts-led decisions.
Maia is not a standalone software product. It is used by COFOMO experts as part of a structured methodology that combines artificial intelligence, human expertise, and governance. Maia accelerates analysis and modernization activities, while COFOMO experts provide validation and make critical decisions throughout every phase of the project.

FAQ
What is Maia?
Maia is an AI-powered application modernization solution that combines a structured methodology, artificial intelligence, human oversight, and governance to help organizations modernize their existing applications with speed, rigor, and confidence.
What challenges does Maia help solve?
Maia helps organizations reduce technical debt, modernize legacy systems, preserve the business knowledge associated with existing applications, mitigate operational risks related to aging technologies, and address the shortage of specialized resources.
What types of applications can be modernized with Maia?
Maia is designed to modernize legacy applications developed with technologies or software versions that have become increasingly difficult to maintain, including older technologies such as Delphi, PowerBuilder, MS Access, COBOL, and many others.
Does Maia replace human experts?
No. Maia is used within a methodology that combines AI, human oversight, and governance. The artifacts produced are subject to automated validation, consultant reviews, and validation by specialized teams and architects.
How do you ensure the quality of the results?
Quality is ensured through multiple control mechanisms, including automated validations, quality assessments, compliance reviews, specialized evaluations for security, reliability, and performance, as well as human validation at every major stage of the project.
What role does security play in the Maia approach?
Security is embedded throughout the methodology. Maia incorporates considerations such as compliance, data residency, sensitive data protection, traceability, and auditability of all work performed.
Can Maia adapt to our technology environment?
Yes. Maia allows agents, instructions, and rules to be adapted to each client’s environment, target architecture, technology standards, and best practices.
Is the AI used by Maia limited to code generation?
No. Maia supports the entire modernization lifecycle, including functionality discovery, architecture analysis, technical and functional documentation, complexity assessment, planning, code modernization, quality validation, and implementation support.
Does Maia help preserve knowledge related to existing applications?
Yes. Maia documents existing applications, analyzes their business rules and technical components, and produces artifacts that facilitate knowledge preservation and transfer.
Do we need to provide our code to an AI system outside our organization?
No. To analyze and modernize an application, Maia requires access to your source code and documentation. However, the solution adapts to your security, compliance, sovereignty, and data governance requirements. Maia supports multiple deployment models to accommodate your technology and regulatory constraints.
Three usage models are available:
- Within your approved AI environments, including Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or any other tools authorized by your organization.
- Within your sovereign environment, allowing your source code, data, and prompts to remain entirely within your own cloud perimeter.
- Within COFOMO-managed AI environments, including Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and other internally managed tools selected and administered by our teams in accordance with the security, compliance, and governance requirements agreed upon with your organization.
Why choose Maia?
Maia combines the power of AI with a proven methodology, COFOMO’s expertise, and a structured governance framework. The approach emphasizes quality, human oversight, continuous improvement, and adaptation to the unique context of each organization.
At COFOMO, our goal is not only to drive technological change but also to foster growth and innovation. With our centers of excellence, digital ingenuity, and approach, we are uniquely positioned to successfully lead your digital transformation and artificial intelligence projects.
