Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has unveiled an enhanced version of its flagship product, TCS MasterCraft, now powered by generative AI (GenAI) and agentic AI. The upgraded solution promises to reduce the cost of legacy system modernisation by over 70% and deliver results twice as fast as traditional methods.
Designed to automate the process of updating legacy applications, the latest TCS MasterCraft cuts down manual effort and enables faster, more accurate mining of business logic.
Ashvini Saxena, VP and head, TCS components engineering group and digital software and solutions, said, “We’ve successfully delivered hundreds of complex modernisation programs using intelligent automation-driven technology conversion for years. We have leveraged GenAI and agentic AI capabilities for the extraction of business knowledge and conversion to augment this capability to deliver maintainable applications and data with a powerful design repository.”
The AI-augmented TCS MasterCraft has already delivered tangible outcomes for major clients. A large North American bank used the platform to achieve 2x productivity gains and 3x faster delivery during mainframe modernisation.
Another ongoing project involves migrating over 50 million lines of legacy COBOL code to Java for a global financial services firm, significantly accelerating modernisation while building a reusable knowledge base.
With GenAI and agentic AI, TCS MasterCraft now features an intelligent automation engine enhanced by TCS' proprietary knowledge base and industry best practices. Agentic AI introduces goal-oriented agents capable of tackling unique modernisation challenges while ensuring the resulting systems are resilient and ready for future technological shifts.
Since its inception in 2012, TCS MasterCraft has helped clients transform legacy systems into modern, scalable, and cloud-native architectures. The new version builds on this legacy, integrating human-in-the-loop decision-making and a DevSecOps pipeline to continuously deliver modernised solutions.Meanwhile, TCS reported approximately 580 AI-centric business engagements in Q4FY25 and has developed over 150 specialised agentic AI solutions across sectors, including financial services, supply chain, and accounting.
