AI-powered migration discovery

Understand Your FileMaker System Before You Commit to Replacing It.

We use AI to read the structure of your solution and summarize it, so the first conversation is about your real tables, scripts, and layouts. Developers review everything and make every decision.

  • Developers review all AI output
  • No automatic conversion promised

What gets analyzed

The Structure Behind Your Screens

FileMaker Pro can produce a Database Design Report describing the tables, fields, relationships, layouts, scripts, and other elements of a solution. That report is a starting point for analysis. Whether we receive it, and how much of your system it covers, depends on what you are comfortable sharing.

  • Tables and fields

    Field types, calculations, and auto-enter rules that define the data model.

  • Relationships

    The relationship graph and which layouts and portals depend on it.

  • Layouts

    Which layouts carry real workflows and which are rarely used.

  • Scripts and custom functions

    Business logic that must be reproduced, simplified, or retired.

  • Privilege sets

    Who can see and change what, to be carried into server-side authorization.

  • Web Viewers and external sources

    Embedded web content, plug-ins, and links to other data sources.

How it works

Five Steps, With a Person Accountable at Each One

Select a step to see what happens, who is responsible, and what it produces.

Step 1 of 5

You share the structure

Responsible: You

You decide what to share. A design report or screenshots of the main layouts is usually enough to begin. Live data is not needed for this step.

Produces

Agreed scope and a confidentiality understanding before anything is shared.

Illustrative sample

What a Discovery Summary Can Look Like

This is an invented example for a fictional distribution company. It shows the shape of the output, not results from a real client or a measured outcome.

An overview of what the solution contains, grouped by area.

AI-assisted development

AI Has Changed the Economics of Software Development.

AI tools help experienced developers do more of the repetitive and exploratory work, so more of the project budget goes to design, review, and the decisions that matter.

  • Application planning

    Drafting requirements, module lists, and user stories for review.

  • Understanding existing structures

    Summarizing tables, scripts, and relationships so analysis starts faster.

  • Code generation

    Producing first drafts of routine code that developers then review and refine.

  • UI component development

    Building forms, tables, and layouts on top of a shared design system.

  • Test generation

    Drafting test cases for critical workflows, which developers verify.

  • Documentation

    Keeping technical and user documentation in step with the code.

  • Refactoring

    Assisting with restructuring code while tests confirm behavior is unchanged.

  • Data transformation and migration preparation

    Suggesting field mappings and cleanup rules, validated before any data moves.

  • Translation workflows

    Drafting interface translations, with human review for business-critical text.

Developers remain responsible

  • Architecture
  • Review
  • Security
  • Testing
  • Delivery

What we do not promise

  • Automatic FileMaker-to-web conversion
  • Error-free AI output
  • A fixed percentage saving or a particular delivery time

Where AI stops

What AI Helps With, and What It Does Not

AI helps with

  • Reading large amounts of structure quickly
  • Drafting plain-language summaries of scripts
  • Suggesting field mappings for review
  • Flagging areas that deserve a closer look

AI does not

  • Automatically convert a FileMaker solution into a web application
  • Replace developer judgment on architecture and security
  • Guarantee error-free output, a fixed saving, or a delivery date
