Modernize .NET.
Without Starting
From Scratch.
Kanetic-x is Kansoft's proprietary AI-driven framework that analyses your legacy .NET codebase — including VB.NET — maps dependencies, and accelerates migration to modern C# / .NET 9 architectures. Even when documentation is missing or incomplete.

Validation & BI Readiness Check
Test suite + Power BI schema validation queued
Most migration projects stall, overrun budgets, or deliver fragile systems — not because the teams aren't good, but because the approach hasn't evolved.
12–18 Month Timelines
Traditional migrations involve months of manual discovery, architecture debates, and line-by-line rewrites before a single feature ships. Business value stalls while engineering burns runway.
Budget Overruns Are the Norm
Without deep visibility into legacy dependencies, scope creep is inevitable. Hidden coupling, undocumented APIs, and tribal knowledge turn estimates into fiction.
Big Bang Risk
Rewriting everything at once means nothing works until everything works. A single integration failure can cascade. Teams ship after months — only to find regression defects lurking in production.
Missing or Outdated Documentation
Most legacy .NET and VB.NET applications have little to no documentation. Teams spend weeks just understanding what exists before migration can even begin — if they can figure it out at all.
VB.NET & Framework Lock-In
Legacy VB.NET, WCF, Web Forms, and .NET Framework 4.x dependencies resist standard upgrade paths. Teams end up rebuilding infrastructure instead of migrating business logic — and VB.NET skills are increasingly scarce.
No Analytics Readiness
Legacy systems store data in rigid schemas with no API exposure. Business intelligence teams can't connect Power BI or any analytics tool without custom ETL pipelines — if the data is even accessible.
We didn't just automate migration — we re-engineered the entire methodology from first principles.
Limited Documentation?
That's Our Starting Point, Not a Blocker.
Most legacy .NET and VB.NET applications were built over a decade ago with little to no documentation. Traditional migration vendors ask you to spend months creating documentation before work begins. Kanetic-x takes the opposite approach — our AI reads the codebase directly, understands business logic from code patterns, and generates the documentation as a byproduct of analysis.
Every migration runs through our proven four-phase pipeline — each powered by AI analysis and validated by senior architects.
Discover
AI ingests your entire codebase — VB.NET, C#, or mixed — and generates a complete application blueprint in under 48 hours. No documentation required.
Design
AI recommends target architecture with security-first design, BI-ready data layers, and modern API patterns.
Transform
AI-assisted code transformation — VB.NET to C#, WCF to gRPC, Web Forms to Blazor — not a line-by-line rewrite.
Validate
AI generates test suites, runs equivalence checks, verifies security posture, and validates Power BI connectivity.
Kanetic-x handles the full spectrum of .NET modernization — from language conversion to complete re-architecture.
VB.NET → .NET Core / C#
Complete language and framework migration from legacy VB.NET to modern C# on .NET 8/9. AI handles the syntax conversion, idiom translation, and pattern modernisation — even for undocumented codebases.
.NET Framework → .NET 8/9
Upgrade legacy .NET Framework 4.x applications to the latest cross-platform runtime with full API compatibility analysis and automated conversion.
On-Prem → Cloud Native
Re-platform monolithic on-premise applications for Azure or AWS — containerisation, managed services, and infrastructure-as-code generation included.
Monolith → Microservices
Decompose tightly coupled monoliths into well-bounded microservices. AI identifies natural service boundaries from your existing domain logic and data flows.
Web Forms → Blazor / React
Migrate legacy ASP.NET Web Forms to modern UI frameworks. Component mapping, state management redesign, and progressive migration strategies.
WCF → Modern APIs
Convert legacy WCF services to RESTful APIs or gRPC endpoints. Contract-first transformation preserves existing service contracts while enabling modern consumption.
A real-world example: a legacy Windows Forms inventory management screen transformed into a modern, secure, BI-ready web interface.

Security & BI — Built In
Kanetic-x doesn't just migrate your code — it hardens your application's security posture as part of the transformation. No separate security project needed.
Authentication & Authorization
Audit & Compliance
Data Protection
API & Network Security
Legacy applications trap data behind closed schemas and desktop-only interfaces. Kanetic-x builds BI-ready data layers into every migration — so your Power BI dashboards connect directly on go-live, not months later.
Why BI-Readiness Is Built Into Migration — Not Bolted On After
Traditional migration treats analytics as a separate project. You migrate first, then spend months building ETL pipelines, data warehouses, and API layers just to get data into Power BI. With Kanetic-x, the data architecture is designed for analytics consumption from the start.
Power BI Direct Connect
RESTful APIs and OData endpoints designed for direct Power BI consumption — no middleware needed.
Star Schema Data Modelling
Database schemas redesigned with fact/dimension tables optimised for analytical queries and reporting.
Real-Time Data Feeds
Event-driven architecture streams data changes to dashboards in real-time — no nightly batch jobs.
Row-Level Security for BI
RBAC extends to BI layer — users see only the data their role permits, even in shared dashboards.
Modern .NET 9 Application
C# · Blazor / React · RESTful APIs
BI-Ready Data Layer
EF Core · Star Schema · OData Endpoints

Not a lift-and-shift tool. A comprehensive AI engine built on years of enterprise migration expertise and pattern libraries.
AI Code Comprehension Engine
Deep semantic understanding of VB.NET and C# codebases — identifies business logic, coupling patterns, and migration risk zones, even without documentation.
Pattern Library (200+ Patterns)
Pre-built transformation patterns — VB.NET to C# idioms, WCF to gRPC, EF6 to EF Core, Web Forms to Blazor, and more.
Dependency Intelligence
Full NuGet compatibility matrix, breaking change detection, and automatic alternative recommendations for deprecated libraries.
Automated Test Generation
Generates regression suites by analysing existing application behaviour — ensuring behavioural parity between legacy VB.NET and modernised C# systems.
Migration Dashboard
Real-time visibility into migration progress, risk metrics, code coverage, and transformation status across every module and service.

Indicative results from enterprise .NET and VB.NET migrations delivered through the Kanetic-x framework.
Engineering leaders who chose the accelerated path.
Our entire inventory system was in VB.NET with zero documentation. We'd been told by three vendors it would take 18 months and we'd need to document everything first. Kanetic-x had a complete analysis in 48 hours and we shipped the first C# module in 10 weeks.
The security uplift alone justified the project. Our legacy app had hardcoded credentials and no audit trail. Kanetic-x delivered OAuth, RBAC, and full audit logging as part of the migration — not a separate workstream.
We connected Power BI to our migrated system on day one of go-live. Our operations team had live dashboards before we even finished the UAT cycle. That's never happened in any migration I've been part of.
