Why Impact Analysis?
AI-driven visibility for your IBM i. Impact Analysis reveals system dependencies, uncovers hidden risks, and streamlines development—turning deep technical knowledge into actionable insight.
Manual IBM i analysis is slow, error-prone, and resource-intensive. It limits visibility, increases risk, and delays delivery—especially when trying to understand how changes ripple through complex legacy systems.
Impact Analysis uses AI to automate system discovery and change prediction. It gives teams clear, fast insights into dependencies, risks, and impacts—enabling smarter decisions and faster, safer modernization.
