Kiya.ai is a global digital banking and fintech solutions provider serving clients in 56 countries. With a strong focus on innovation, Kiya.ai introduced Kiyaverse—India’s first metaverse platform for banking—creating immersive digital experiences for financial institutions and customers alike. To accelerate its development cycle, enhance security, and reduce technical debt, Kiya.ai integrated Amazon Q Developer Pro, AWS’s generative AI–powered assistant for developers, transforming how its software teams build and scale next-generation banking applications.

The Challenge Kiya.ai’s engineering teams were managing complex enterprise codebases and legacy applications that slowed innovation and time-to-market: 
  • Large, Complex Codebase – Over 400,000 lines of Java, Python, and .NET code required constant updates and refactoring.
  • Manual Testing Bottlenecks – Peer reviews and manual test-case migrations delayed releases and increased production risks.
  • Legacy Technical Debt – Outdated modules led to higher maintenance costs and late-stage vulnerability discovery during QA.
To stay ahead in the fast-moving fintech space, Kiya.ai needed a smarter, AI-assisted development environment capable of accelerating feature delivery, ensuring security, and reducing rework.

The Solution Pentagon helped Kiya.ai implement Amazon Q Developer Pro, integrating it across development and DevOps pipelines to automate and enhance the software lifecycle.

Key Capabilities Delivered:
  • Lightning-Fast Code Modernization – Automated refactoring of Java and .NET codebases, reducing modernization efforts from weeks to minutes.
  • Intelligent Test Automation – Migrated thousands of test cases automatically, saving 1 hour per 100 cases and ensuring 100% quality coverage.
  • Seamless CI/CD Integration – Streamlined workflows across Java and .NET environments, accelerating feature rollout and continuous delivery.
  • AI-Driven Security – Implemented proactive vulnerability detection and remediation, embedding bank-grade security into every line of code.
Within months, the integration transformed Kiya.ai’s development operations—empowering teams to deliver new digital-banking and metaverse features faster than ever before.
