Why VE AI

Beyond standalone AI

Standalone AI assistants only see the code you paste. Maintaining a real application takes more.

What VE AI adds

Three things a standalone assistant cannot do.

Application context from Visual Expert

Each request starts from the code you select, enriched with its dependencies, related objects and database usage.

AI inside your maintenance workflows

Not a separate chatbot. VE AI is available where you already work: exploring, documenting, reviewing a Code Inspection finding, optimizing.

A shared, persistent knowledge base

AI results are stored with your analysis and shared across the team, available for the next person and the next change.

Four domains, five services available today

More are planned for upcoming releases.

Visual Expert AI generates clear explanations of your legacy code, tailored to your audience.

Business Explanation

Automatically generates a functional description of your code for non-technical teams (business analysts, project managers, auditors).

ExampleThe “w_order” window manages the creation, tracking and completion of work orders — including materials, linked documents and process status — giving non-technical teams a clear view of what the module does.

Logic Explanation

Produces a concise technical analysis that helps developers quickly understand programming logic, even in unfamiliar code.

Example“The function loops through sales, applies coefficients according to sales level, calculates bonuses via quarterly targets, and handles special premium client cases.”
Oracle code comments generated with VE AI

Visual Expert detects performance issues, and AI suggests concrete optimizations.

Performance Optimization

Visual Expert identifies bottlenecks (slow queries, inefficient loops, memory handling). AI then suggests improvements specific to your technical environment.

Example“For this PL/SQL procedure, using an index on sales_date would improve performance without impacting other modules.”
Detecting missing indexes with Visual Expert

Contextual Suggestions

AI understands your environment (PowerBuilder, Oracle, SQL Server) and suggests optimizations that respect your technical and business constraints.

Example“For this PL/SQL procedure, adding an index on sales_date would improve performance by 60% without impacting other modules.”

Visual Expert detects security vulnerabilities, and AI suggests specific fixes.

Vulnerability Detection

Visual Expert automatically identifies potential SQL injections, insecure privilege management, and accidental exposure of sensitive data.

Example“Variable 'user_input' used directly in a SQL query without validation – injection risk detected on line 127.”
Detect security flaws in code with Visual Expert AI

Suggested Fixes

AI proposes concrete solutions to fix detected vulnerabilities, adapted to your technology (PowerBuilder, Oracle, SQL Server).

Example“Replace with a parameterized query: 'SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :user_id' and validate 'user_input' before use.”

AI automatically generates contextual documentation to improve maintainability.

Comment Generation

Automatically inserts contextual and relevant comments in your code, improving documentation without manual effort.

Example// Commission calculation based on current scale
// Handles premium client special cases and quarterly bonuses
if ld_sales_amount > 0 then
Visual Expert AI generates comments

Suggest a Solution

Get a recommendation for a Code Inspection finding, adapted to your technical environment.

Example“Extract this repeated block into a shared function to reduce duplication and simplify future maintenance.”

From code analysis to a team knowledge base

Static analysis becomes application context, the AI works on that context, and the results build a knowledge base your team can reuse.

Step 11

Static code analysis

Visual Expert parses your full application, not a pasted snippet.

  • Dependency analysis
  • Database analysis
  • Code Inspection
  • Technical documentation
  • Performance tuning
Step 22

Application context

The analysis is assembled into a single context the AI can reason on.

DependenciesData flowsObject relationshipsBusiness rulesTechnical knowledge
Step 33

VE AI services

The AI works on that context, where you already work.

  • Explain Logic
  • Explain Business
  • Generate Comments
  • Suggest Fixes
  • Optimize Code
Step 44

Team knowledge base

AI results are saved with your analysis, ready for the next person and the next change.

  • Shared across the team
  • Searchable in Visual Expert
  • Reused on the next change

Onboard new developers

Bring people up to speed on unfamiliar code.

Assess impact of changes

Know what a change touches before you make it.

Document and modernize

Recover the logic of legacy code before you rewrite it.

Resolve code issues

Understand a finding and act on it faster.

Understand complex code

Read dense or legacy logic in plain language.

Make safer changes

Lower the risk of maintenance work.

Your code stays protected

Visual Expert AI is built on top of Visual Expert's analysis, with security designed in.

Read-only

VE never modifies your source code, database schemas or environment.

Minimal excerpts

Only the code fragment needed for a request is sent to the AI, never your full codebase.

No model training

Your code is never used to train AI models. Encrypted in transit and at rest, deletion on request.

You stay in control

Every result is a suggestion you review before applying. AI can be disabled per project.
