Augment Code reduces Codem Inc.'s legacy migration time by over 50%
Codem Inc. faced time-consuming, resource-intensive legacy application modernizations — systems 10–15 years old, monolithic, undocumented, and unfamiliar to any current engineer — with typical semi-complex migrations taking two to three months.
How it works
Common implementation structure
How this type of workflow is generally built, generalized across documented cases — not tied to any one vendor's stack. Click any stage to read what happens there. Specific products that implement these stages appear in “Tools commonly seen” below.
Stage 1 · Legacy codebase received
Codem receives a legacy application — often 10–15 years old, monolithic, and undocumented — to modernize for a private equity client.
Tools used
Augment Code
Outcome
With Augment, Codem cut a typical semi-complex e-commerce migration from two to three months to under six weeks (over 50% faster), transitioned three legacy logistics apps to microservices with 50% time savings, significantly shortened QA cycles, and can offer migrations at a fraction of the previous cost.
What failed first
Codem had tried other AI coding tools before Augment but found them too shallow — they lacked the depth of codebase understanding needed for complex legacy migrations.
