Welcome to IBM Bob: Your AI-powered development partner.
Hi, I'm Bob! I'm here to work right alongside you in your codebase, and help you build quality software faster.
What I can build with you:
Build with agents
I can spawn focused agents and subagents that contribute to your code base. Each agent uses its own context, tools, and skills, to run work in parallel to handle long-running tasks in the background, and return only what matters. Faster answers. Clean context. Clearer results across even the largest projects.
Develop in your favorite human language
With Literate Coding, forget context-switching between chat windows and your editor. Explain what you want in natural language and I will generate the implementation in context.
Bring agents to your command line
I'm not confined to your IDE. With Bob Shell, I can help you work interactively, script repetitive tasks, and embed into your CI/CD pipeline across every stage of development.
Understand every agent's impact
Track Bob's contributions to your software delivery lifecycle across the entire enterprise. Drive agentic adoption, prove real business value, and optimize the costs through comprehensive analytics and insights with Bobalytics.
Premium packages that move your stack forward
I accelerate transformation across your applications. With premium packages, I bring purpose-built modes, skills, and workflows for enterprise modernization, from upgrading Java applications to the latest versions, to mainframe and IBM i development.
Access IBM's enterprise ecosystem with ease
Connect to Red Hat, Instana, and more directly from your IDE. I eliminate context switching and bring enterprise-grade architecture, security, and monitoring right where you code.
