How it works
Legacy estate in. Modernized software out.
Sources come in on the left, run through four platform layers, and come out as modernized software on the right. Insights come from Rhino Copilot, built on each project's context.
Your estate
Mainframe
Custom code
SaaS & ERP configuration
Workflow & automation flows
Docs & process
Modernized software
Presentation
Artifacts per persona, rhino Copilot, MCP, API and browser control
Orchestration
rhino Orchestrator plans the work, routes each task, and tracks and steers it
Agent
rhino Extractors, Rhino Agents, external agents such as AWS Transform, Kiro and Claude Code, and your human experts
Context
What we know: logic, rules and dependencies, traced to source. What we learn: expert decisions and agent traces.
↻ Learning loop
Modernized software
Cloud-native services
Integrations
Configured SaaS
Tests, docs & runbooks
Live on the target platform
How it's packaged
Platform, workbench, factory
Three words you'll hear from us, and what each one means.
Platform
rhino.ai itself
The four layers that customers, partners and our forward-deployed engineers build on.
Workbench
Configured for one modernization
A configured instance of the platform, packaged per system, in enterprise and software-vendor flavors. Teams work in it every day.
Factory
The modernization factory
The operating model that runs workbenches again and again to deliver outcomes, run by rhino, a partner or your own team.
How it runs
Two weeks, fixed scope, your environment
Runs inside your environment, with the model of your choice. Nothing leaves your perimeter.
Understand
Transform
01
Kickoff
Scope and objectives set with your team.
02
Assets
Code, configs, and documents into your perimeter.
03
Extraction
The logic graph is built; gaps flagged.
04
Validation
Findings refined with your experts.
05
Readout
Evidence-backed results and path forward.
Scale
The modernization factory runs the workbench again and again, reusing what each delivery learned.
Capabilities
One platform, a capability for every stack
rhino reads custom code, packaged software, low-code, and the mainframe through one governed logic layer. Each stack has its own depth. The mainframe is where it matters most, and where we start.
rhino for SaaS & COTS
Packaged platforms, configuration and customization included
Legacy COTS, SaaS, workflow application platforms and other packaged platforms hold years of configuration and customization nobody wrote down. rhino extracts it, so you can move to a current release or a new platform, consolidate duplicate instances, or decide what to keep.
rhino for Mainframe
The mainframe, and everything that connects to it
Read COBOL on CICS, VSAM and DB2 data, batch jobs and green-screen flows natively, plus the custom code, packaged software and integrations wired around the core. rhino maps the seams between them, so one business action is traceable from a modern portal into the mainframe and back.
Running something else? rhino reads code, configuration, documents and data exports together, so a mixed estate doesn't need a different tool for every technology.
The context layer
Every inference, traced to source
The context layer holds governed business logic along with the rules, documents, decisions and code it relates to. It's what the agents work from, and it stays yours.
What we extract
Business rules, data mappings, interfaces and process flows.
How it's structured
Held across graph, vector, file and SQL stores: logic, rules and dependencies, traced to source.
How it's governed
Full provenance. Every inference traced to source, with explicit reasoning and a confidence score.
How it's consumed
Reachable by your teams, IDEs and agents through artifacts, rhino Copilot, MCP, API and browser control.
Trust and compounding
Trusted on every output. Faster with every modernization.
Deterministic parsing, AI and human experts each do the part they're best at, and the workbench keeps what it learns.
Customer view
Expert decision capture
Expert decides
An SME approves, corrects or adds a task in the workbench.
Decision captured
The decision and the agent trace land in the context layer.
Pinned to the agent
Each decision attaches to the agent it applies to.
Reused next time
The next modernization starts from what the last one learned.
Accelerators speed up one project. The modernization factory compounds.
Enterprise-grade
Your infrastructure, your models, your rules
Built for government and regulated industries from day one.
Assets only
Code, table structures, documents and SaaS configuration. No access to production systems or customer data.
Your perimeter
Your VPC or on-prem, on Kubernetes inside your security perimeter, including AWS GovCloud and Azure Government. Air-gapped available.
Your models
Choose your own LLM provider and model access.
Certified
SOC 2 Type II, and scanned and architected for government and regulated industries.
Common questions
How rhino fits
What people ask us most about the platform.
Does rhino write code?
Yes, when you're ready for it. The first three steps produce governed logic and signed-off recommendations. Steps four and five turn them into specs and then into built, tested and deployed software, using rhino agents and external agents such as AWS Transform, Kiro and Claude Code.
Where does the logic live?
In your context layer, in your environment. The logic we extract is yours to keep and reuse across programs.
What can rhino read?
Custom code, packaged software and ERP configuration, low-code, integration fabric and the mainframe, plus the documents and processes around them, as one estate.
Can we use our own agents and tools?
Yes. External agents plug into the agent layer and work from the same governed context, and your teams can reach that context through MCP and APIs.
How is it deployed and secured?
In your VPC or on-prem, inside your security perimeter, with the model provider you choose. Rhino is SOC 2 Type II.
