Profound Logic

Want to watch AI agents build real IBM i code...live, in front of you? On April 15, our CEO {{linkedin_mention(urn:li:person:Si8keCegfk|Alex Roytman)}} is heading to the OCEAN User Group meetup in Irvine, CA to do exactly that. He's opening CoderFlow on a live IBM i system. Multiple agents, running in parallel, generating and compiling real code in real time. No canned demo. No highlight reel. Just an honest look at what agentic coding actually looks like on IBM i today. If you're in Southern California, this one is worth showing up for. 📅 April 15, 2026 📍 IBM Offices, Irvine, CA 🎟️ Free for OCEAN members Register here: hubs.la/Q047JYDv0. #IBMi #AgenticCoding #CoderFlow #OCEANUserGroup #ProfoundLogic

IBM's Bob just got a whole lot more powerful. 🔋 CoderFlow now supports IBM's Bob as a participating agent in its autonomous execution platform, timed with Bob's general availability. CoderFlow doesn't compete with Bob. It amplifies Bob. As an enterprise agentic coding platform built around governance, security, and infrastructure control, CoderFlow gives organizations what they actually need to deploy AI-driven development responsibly: all execution happens inside your environment, with full audit trails, role-based access, and no credentials or bulk data leaving your infrastructure. Inside CoderFlow, Bob gains access to the full IBM i stack: native compilers, DB2, CL commands, 5250 automation, and Git. It compiles, tests, fixes, and iterates autonomously, until work is verified and ready for human review. And it runs in parallel alongside Claude, Codex, and Gemini, with judge agents selecting the strongest result across all models. We're already seeing customers complete year-long projects in weeks. Bob is one more capable agent in that mix. Read the full release: hubs.la/Q048nyLh0 #CoderFlow #IBMi #IBMBob #AgenticAI #IBMiFuturization #EnterpriseAI

"Verified, ready-to-commit" sounds like marketing language. It's not. Most AI coding tools end their job at generation. They hand you a suggestion. Compiling it, testing it, debugging it, and validating it against your actual environment? That's still on your team. In a clean, greenfield codebase that gap is manageable. In an IBM i environment running RPG, COBOL, and decades of interdependent business logic, that gap is often the majority of the work. Verified means the build succeeded. Tests passed. Failures were caught, fixed, and retested automatically. All inside your actual environment, not a sandbox. That's a different category of outcome than a suggestion. And it's the right bar to hold every AI coding tool to. Read the full breakdown: hubs.la/Q047JLkF0 #IBMi #AgenticCoding #CoderFlow #Futurization #EnterpriseAI

IBM i developers aren't being replaced by AI. They're being repositioned. The shift is significant. Instead of writing and debugging code line by line, developers become orchestrators. Defining what needs to be built and directing intelligent systems to build it. That's a more strategic role, not a diminished one. But it only works if the foundation is there. Autonomous agents need Git, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing to operate safely. Without those, you don't have agentic coding. You have suggestions with extra steps. The organizations that get this right aren't just adopting AI. They're building the kind of development infrastructure that makes their best people more powerful. That's the real opportunity on IBM i right now. Full breakdown here: hubs.la/Q047J-Rc0 #IBMi #AgenticCoding #Futurization #IBMiDevelopment #DevOps

Earlier this month, engineer Alexey Grigorev watched an AI coding agent wipe 1.9 million rows of student data (backups included) in seconds. No technical error. Every action was locally correct. The agent just had no idea it was operating on a live production system. This is the part of the agentic coding conversation that doesn't get enough attention. Agents are getting extraordinarily capable. They can write code, close tickets, and ship features fast. But they still don't know what they don't know. When a powerful tool fails silently, the damage is catastrophic, not just annoying. Guardrails aren't optional. They're the whole game. CoderFlow was built with this in mind from day one: → No commits, pushes, or deployments without human approval → Isolated execution containers that can't reach production → Scoped role-based access controls → Admin-defined deployment profiles → Secrets isolation → Full audit trails at every step The Grigorev incident isn't a cautionary tale about AI being bad at code. It's a cautionary tale about what happens when agents operate without structure. We think a lot about what "safe agentic coding" actually means in enterprise environments. Not just for IBM i, but for any team handing consequential work to an agent.

There's a meaningful difference between AI that assists and AI that executes. An AI coding assistant makes your developer faster. They still plan the work, run the builds, interpret failures, and validate every result. The human is still the bottleneck. CoderFlow removes that bottleneck entirely. Agents break down objectives, run parallel builds, compile, test, fix failures, and surface verified outcomes for developer review. The work gets done. Your engineers orchestrate it. That shift, from writing code to directing intelligent systems, is what separates incremental productivity gains from transformational ones. IBM i developers aren't being replaced. They're being repositioned. And that's a very different conversation.

The IBM i ecosystem is small. Everybody knows everybody. That's actually a competitive advantage....if you're plugged into the right network. The Profound Futurization Alliance brings together resellers, ISVs, and referral partners who are all working toward the same thing: helping IBM i organizations futurize without leaving their platform investment behind. If you're an IBM i consultant, VAR, or ISV and you're not already part of a futurization partner network, what's holding you back?

Your IBM i system holds decades of refined business logic. It still can't talk to your AI platform. Your cloud analytics stack. Your SaaS apps. That's not an IBM i problem. That's an integration problem and it's costing you more than you're measuring. One bank we worked with waited 4 to 8 weeks per service change. After implementing Profound API: 45 minutes. Revenue up 23%. Your data and logic are already there. Access is a solvable problem.

The IBM i talent cliff isn't coming.....it's already here. 👀 The developers who built and maintained these systems for decades are retiring. And the pipeline of people who know RPG, COBOL, and the nuances of your specific environment? It's not keeping up. Most organizations respond by searching harder for the same scarce talent. That's not a strategy. That's a waiting game you're losing. The smarter move? Pair the IBM i expertise you can find with agentic coding environments that multiply what they can deliver. Same headcount. Exponentially more output. That's the model. See how it works: hubs.la/Q046z07P0 #IBMi #StaffAugmentation #IBMiDevelopment #Futurization #TechTalent

Everyone is asking "which AI model should we use?" That's the wrong question. The real barrier to agentic coding on IBM i isn't the AI. It's whether your DevOps toolchain can support autonomous agents at all. Git. CI/CD pipelines. Automated testing. No shortcuts. Most IBM i shops don't have these in place yet. And no AI model fixes that gap. The good news: building this foundation makes your development team better right now, before a single agent touches your code. We broke down exactly what's required and the staged path that works in practice: hubs.la/Q045KG_J0 #IBMi #AgenticCoding #DevOps #Futurization #IBMiDevelopment

@WMCPAiCon 2026 is a wrap. 💥 Packed sessions. Real conversations on the expo floor.

This community never misses. Next stop: @COMMONug's POWERUp 2026 in New Orleans, April 27–30. We'll be on the expo floor, giving can't miss sessions and rumor has it there's a pickleball tournament....so consider this as challenge accepted. See you in NOLA. ⚜️ #IBMi #WMCPA2026 #POWERUp2026 #CoderFlow #ProfoundLogic

Your copilot isn't agentic coding. Not even close. AI code assistants make individual developers faster. You still plan, compile, test, and judge every step. The human is still the bottleneck. Orchestrated execution replaces that entire loop. Multiple agents work in parallel, each in an isolated container, writing and validating code while you review completed outcomes. The agentic AI market is growing at 46% annually. The organizations pulling ahead aren't the ones with the most AI tools. They're the ones that understood the difference early.

Most IBM i staffing firms hand you a developer and call it done. With rework and ramp time, projects end exactly where they started. The difference isn't headcount. It's what those developers can do with the right futurization tooling behind them. Pair deep IBM i expertise with agentic coding environments and you're not adding capacity linearly, you're multiplying it 5 to 10x. That's the model. Outcomes, not bodies.

And if you want to see how we approach it differently: hubs.la/Q045L1ZY0 #IBMi #StaffAugmentation #IBMiCommunity #TechTalent #Futurization

What's the fastest way to stall an AI initiative? Treat security as an afterthought. IBM i environments carry your most critical workloads, and any AI operating within them needs enterprise-grade governance from day one, not retrofitted later. We wrote about how to get this right: hubs.la/Q044S01J0. #IBMi #EnterpriseSecurity #AgenticAI #ProfoundLogic #CoderFlow

Real transformation doesn't rip and replace. It builds on what works. Van Kam Freightways needed modern visibility across LTL operations, without walking away from the IBM i systems running their business. What they got: modern interfaces that eliminated manual workflows, real-time operational visibility, and measurable efficiency gains. Same foundation. Expanded capability. That's futurization in practice. See how they did it 🚚 hubs.la/Q044RS9G0 #IBMi #CaseStudy #Futurization #ProfoundLogic

Legacy is not the problem. Isolation is. IBM i applications power critical operations across industries. The issue is not age. It is access, integration, and adaptability. Futurization means: • Preserving proven business logic • Futurizing user experience • Enabling API-driven architecture • Expanding capability without disruption Replacement is expensive. Rewrites are risky. Coexistence is strategic. If your team is ready to go beyond modernization to true AI-powered futurization this year, this outlines a safer, smarter approach: 👉 hubs.la/Q044RVCq0 #IBMi #Futurization #ITStrategy #ProfoundLogic

When you tell a developer who's spent thirty years mastering RPG that AI agents will soon write code autonomously, what they hear is: 'Your skills are becoming obsolete.'" Our COO Jordan Antonoff dove into the agentic coding conversations that's happening in coffee breaks but not in boardrooms. The fear no one wants to name: When leadership announces "exponential productivity improvements," developers hear: "We'll need fewer of you." When tech leaders say "augmentation not replacement," developers know that's what management always says before reorganizations. This fear isn't irrational. But Jordan argues it's based on a fundamental misunderstanding. What's actually changing: Developers aren't becoming obsolete. They're being freed from tedious work: boilerplate code, syntax debugging, manual testing, legacy reformatting. What's emerging? Developers as architects of intelligent systems. Jordan breaks down what sustainable adoption actually looks like, and why it requires a completely different kind of leadership.
