Code in Production: AI FDE x Lear & Trinity Industries | DevCon 4

AI FDE, an AI-powered tool for the Foundry platform, accelerates development by automating ontology management, data integration, and application building. At Lear Corporation, the platform enables a lean team to manage over 16,000 users and 280 use cases by automating documentation and governance, which improves searchability and context for both human builders and AI agents. Trinity Industries leverages the tool to migrate legacy systems, debug complex MRP engines, and democratize development by allowing non-specialists to generate TypeScript code. These implementations demonstrate how AI FDE shifts the build-versus-buy calculus, allowing organizations to modernize legacy architectures and scale production capabilities without requiring massive dedicated software teams. Future updates will further expand these efficiencies by integrating no-code tools like Pipeline Builder and Logic directly into the AI-assisted development workflow.
