The skills gap is real

Fewer developers know RPG every year. New hires need a faster on-ramp to the logic that runs your business.

The backlog is growing

Modernization work keeps stacking up while teams stay small. The list outpaces the hours available to clear it.

The window is narrowing

Key developers are retiring, and their knowledge walks out with them. The time to capture it is now.

Powerful upgrades that put AI to work on IBM i.

Every new capability connects to your live system and understands the platform it runs on.

The Valence Assistant is far more capable in 6.4. It writes working source code for your applications from plain conversational prompts, grounded in your real environment.
