LiNKX has proposed an AI-powered tool for automatically generating system design documents for financial institutions. The Keiyo Bank began implementing it in September, enabling the automatic creation of design documents and updates in response to changes.
LiNKX (a Tokyo-based system development company) is proposing a support tool for financial institutions that uses AI to automatically generate and update design documents for core systems. The company says it has received inquiries from multiple regional banks.
The tool is said to have been adopted by The Keiyo Bank in September. It can analyse large volumes of source code in a short time to create design documents and keep them up to date. Its stated distinguishing feature is that it detects changes to source code and reflects them in the design documents.
The company says the tool incorporates proprietary technology that preprocesses large volumes of source code into a format that is easier for AI to analyse, thereby helping to suppress hallucinations that tend to occur when large amounts of source code are loaded into AI at once.
The tool is indicated as having the potential to eliminate discrepancies between design documents and actual code resulting from years of accumulated system modifications at financial institutions, reducing the burden of maintenance work.
