We’ve stopped asking customers to bet on the right tool
Blog post from Swimm
Swimm is transitioning from a Software as a Service model to a service-oriented approach to address the complexities of enterprise software modernization, particularly with legacy codebases. The rapid evolution of AI tools has made it difficult for companies to commit to long-term modernization tools, leading Swimm to focus on delivering comprehensive modernization projects themselves, combining proprietary static analysis, large language models (LLMs), and experienced engineers specialized in legacy systems. This shift enables Swimm to manage the entire process, from discovery to execution, ensuring the desired outcomes without the burden of selecting and integrating diverse tools. The company identifies market trends, noting that major AI firms are also moving towards services, highlighting a shift in value from products to services in the AI space. Swimm's emphasis is on leveraging technology and human expertise to tackle the unique challenges of each legacy codebase, aiming to modernize systems effectively and efficiently.
