Agent-Run Legacy Migration Studio
A productized service that moves companies off old software with agents doing the grunt work.
The problem
Companies know they need to modernize old systems and dread the project, so it stalls for years.
Who pays
Mid-market firms on legacy ERPs, spreadsheets-as-systems and aging internal tools.
The product
Fixed-price migrations ('your Access database to a modern web app in 3 weeks') delivered mostly by agents with an engineer reviewing. Reuse tooling across clients.
Why now
Agents cut delivery cost sharply, so fixed-price work is profitable at a lower price than agencies.
Honest verdict
The quickest route to real cash because it sells a finished outcome, not a subscription. Works as a wedge; the long-term upside is turning the tooling into a product.
What would make you quit
Kill if delivery effort per project exceeds 80 hours after the third project, or if you cannot close 2 paid projects in 60 days.
Who you would be up against
- Traditional IT consultancies Slow and expensive; not agent-leveraged.
- Low-code agencies Cheaper but rebuild by hand.
A first week that tests it
- List 40 firms on a named legacy system
- Write a one-page fixed-scope offer
- Do a free assessment for 3 of them
- Quote one project
- Record the process as a runbook
