Imogen is an end to end platform for modernizing mainframe applications safely, reliably, and without disruption.
Unlike traditional "lift and shift," code transpilation approaches, or BRE-based "reimagine" efforts, Imogen automates a rigorous testing harness into the process of writing modern code to create byte-for-byte equivalence in modern, cloud-ready code. The new code is now far easier, faster, and safer to change, without undermining what's already working.
Imogen starts by making visible system dependencies and logic via visualizations of workload behavior, interdependencies, and modernization progress, helping teams make better decisions on where to start and how to proceed.
Imogen then rewrites the mainframe rapidly to the behavioral specifications, balancing AI-generated code with humans in the loop supervision to validate logic and optimize architecture. Each new workload is tested exhaustively against deterministic and probabilistic tests (and ultimately, against real data flows) to confirm that it produces identical behavior to the original.
Because workloads go into production incrementally, user patterns and business operations aren't disrupted. Each successfully rewritten workload builds increasing confidence in the success of the modernization effort and is ready for change and reimagining.
Built by the creators of Pivotal Labs, Mechanical Orchard radically accelerates mainframe modernization efforts for any company looking to modernize critical applications safely and confidently, without disruption.

Highlights
Automated verification to generate production-ready modern code that's byte-for-byte equivalent in behavior - free proofs of concept using your code is available
Incremental and parallelized deployment to accelerate reimagining the system
Deployed on-premise with orchestration capabilities to manage the workload cutovers between the existing and new systems.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before it ends, access to these entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing uses a contract pricing model billed by units of Imogen, the mainframe modernization automation platform. The pricing table does not publish a set rate. Instead, you contact the vendor to arrange pricing details for your engagement. Because the platform modernizes workloads one slice at a time across its Analyze, Rewrite, and Orchestrate phases, the scope of your source code and applications shapes what you pay. There is one pricing dimension, so there are no tiers or add-ons to compare. Reach out to the vendor to scope units and cost for your system.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one unit of Imogen represent for billing?
The pricing table bills by units of Imogen but does not define a fixed unit rate. In practice, the scope of your source code and applications shapes the count. The platform modernizes workloads one slice at a time, so units track the code being modernized. Contact the vendor to scope units for your system.
Does the price cover all three phases: Analyze, Rewrite, and Orchestrate?
Imogen works across three modules: deterministic understanding, proof-as-you-go code generation, and running old and new systems side by side. Partners can use any or all three phases. Because pricing is arranged directly with the vendor, confirm which phases your units cover when you scope your engagement.
Does a proof of concept count toward what I pay on this listing?
The vendor runs a proof of concept against a slice of your codebase at no cost, under NDA, in their own cloud environment. It produces a roadmap and an initial replica of around 100k lines of code. A paid modernization program follows only if results meet your criteria. Confirm scope with the vendor.

The Mechanical Rock AWS Well Architected Review (WAR) is a detailed assessment of a customer’s workload with respect to the six AWS pillars - Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimisation and Sustainability.
During this one day workshop our experienced AWS Certified Solution Architects (Professional) guide your team through a series of questions following the 6 Well Architected pillars which help build a common understanding of your workload and identify gaps against recommended AWS practices.
Together we use this process to identify High and Medium risk items which culminate in a measurable action plan to transform your workload into one which is both high performing and follows AWS recommended practices.
