What is Bloop?

Who It's For

This service helps companies and teams move from old COBOL code to modern Java. If legacy systems slow you down and you want developers to innovate, this tool modernizes your software for the long term.

What You Get

You receive Java code that's easy to read, just like a human wrote it. This new code works exactly like your original COBOL programs. It uses open-source parts to save costs and is ready for your team to change and add new features immediately. The automatic conversion is also safer than manual rewrites.

How It Works

First, the team surveys your system to find components and risks. Next, they do a small test conversion (proof-of-concept) to show its value. Finally, they complete the full modernization, letting your team immediately start working with the new Java code.

Features & Capabilities

⚙️ Core Conversion Features

Functionally Equivalent Output

Ensures converted Java programs behave identically to original COBOL, validated by an AI test suite.

Human-Readable Java

Converts COBOL into Java code that is structured and readable as if written by a human.

Modifiable & Extensible Code

Produces Java code that can be easily modified and extended without requiring refactoring.

Automated Conversion Safety

Provides a safer translation than manual rewrites, with built-in correctness checks throughout the pipeline.

💰 Economic & Operational Advantages
