The Agent-Native AWS Modernization Firm
The AI era runs on systems that work.
We build them.
Mactores delivers the modernizations that decide the next decade: bets that compound for years, finished in weeks instead of quarters. On a fixed date. At a fraction of the hours of a traditional proposal. With customer-signed acceptance, not status decks.

The next decade of competitive advantage is being decided right now.
The Pattern Leaders Recognize
The companies that put AI to work in their operations in the next twenty-four months will set the architecture the rest of the category reacts to in 2027 and 2028. The companies that ran AI pilots and stopped will spend the same decade catching up. The cost of stalling has already been priced into the cost of buying.
The Mactores Claim
We exist to deliver the modernizations that put AI to work in real operations, not the strategy decks about it. Production systems running. Legacy retired. Real outcomes measured in real currency. Our customers' AI investments compound. Their competitors' AI investments stall.
What We Ship
Three things change at once. We deliver all three.
01
Data Platform Modernization
The data foundation that decides what AI can read, ground against, and act on. Modernized in weeks, not quarters. Lower engagement cost than traditional consulting.
See data work →02
Application & Database Modernization
The legacy stack that prices into every future AI decision, retired on a date we put in the contract. Oracle and SQL Server replaced. Technical debt cleared. Capital reallocated.
See app & DB work →03
AI Agents for Apps
Agents that work in real operations, not POCs. Customer support that handles intent. Claims systems that pass audit on first review. Grids that decide in real time.
See agent work →The Economics
Most of the AI budget you think you need is already in the building.
The capital-allocation question every CFO is now solving for: how to fund a multi-year AI program without growing the IT budget. The answer is in the building. The legacy database license. The data warehouse renewal. The integration tier that bills hours to keep itself alive. Each line is paying interest on systems built for a world that has ended. Each line is a candidate for reallocation.
Where the budget is trapped today
- Annual renewals on legacy database and ERP nobody loves
- Pipelines and integrations that bill maintenance hours to stay alive
- Multi-quarter consulting engagements that produce decks, not production systems
- Change orders against modernizations that never reached the production goal
Where the budget should reallocate
- A cloud-native data foundation that AI can actually read against
- Application and database refactors that retire the debt permanently
- Production agentic platforms running against real data and real workloads
- Forward-deployed engineering paid to ship, not to staff
The companies that pivot inside their existing IT envelope in the next twenty-four months will fund their AI program from the budget they already have. The companies that do not will be the ones asking their boards for a budget increase to fund a program their competitors have already shipped. The first move is reallocation.
Read the funding-AI POV →How We Deliver
Two assets that change the unit economics of modernization.
Most consulting firms staff modernization with a pyramid: a junior pool under a thin senior layer. The economics depend on hours billed. We replaced that pyramid with two assets: Aedeon, an agent platform that absorbs 60–70% of the engagement work, and forward-deployed engineers who own architecture, cutover, and customer relationship personally.
Aedeon

Aedeon Does
The discovery, mapping, validation, and observability work that traditionally consumed analyst hours.
FDEs Own
The architecture decisions, the cutover, and the customer-facing commitment, personally, not as account-team relay.
The Contract Carries
The delivery date. Mactores absorbs overage on delays inside our control.
Our Commitment
Fixed date. Fixed fee. Customer-signed acceptance.
Every Mactores engagement closes on customer-signed acceptance, not a status review. The five-phase delivery has named exits the customer's CFO and CIO sign at each gate. Mactores absorbs overage on delays inside our control. Customer-caused delays convert to T&M at standard rates. The commercial structure exists because the delivery model justifies it.

For Your Role · 10
One firm. Four reads. Pick yours.
Mactores reads differently from each side of the executive table. Below is the single thing each CXO role takes from working with us. The four reads describe the same firm.
For the CEO
Competitive position in the AI era.
Mactores lands the modernizations that decide the next decade. Production systems running. Legacy retired. Named customers in production. The board narrative is defensible because the numbers and the customer names hold up to scrutiny. The companies that move now set the architecture competitors will spend 2027–28 reacting to.
For the CFO
AI as a capital-allocation question, not an R&D one.
Fixed date. Fixed fee. Mactores absorbs overage on delays inside our control. Most of the AI budget reallocates from inside the existing IT envelope: the legacy renewals, the integration hours, the multi-quarter consulting projects that never reached production. The CFO files this as reallocation, not new spend.
For the CTO
Production agentic systems on architectures that survive five years.
Built around forward-deployed engineers who have shipped production agentic AI, not a pyramid of generalists with a thin specialty layer. Architecture decisions made by the people who will run the result. Aedeon absorbs the analyst-tier work that would otherwise consume engineering cycles. The architecture is delivered by the firm whose own delivery model is agent-native.
For the CIO
Modernization without taking the business offline.
Cutover-safe by construction. Audit evidence captured at decision time, not reconstructed after. Customer-signed acceptance at each phase exit; engagements close on signed paperwork, not on status decks. The operations team owns the running system on day-after-cutover. No hanging change orders. Clean account closure.
