Issuer Direct is a leading US provider of corporate communications and compliance solutions. Its core platform offers tools for earnings releases, investor relations and real-time event broadcasting (webcasting). With a focus on transparency and efficiency, the company serves hundreds of global organizations, ensuring that critical market data is delivered securely and with high performance.
Challenge
A core real-time reporting application built on Angular 9, with high technical debt, strong architectural coupling, dependency on legacy libraries and more than 180 active security vulnerabilities. The stack compromised performance, scalability, security and the product's ability to evolve, making a traditional version migration unfeasible and high risk.
Solution
AI-assisted incremental refactoring starting from a new Angular 20 project, migrating component by component. The approach combined heavy use of Generative AI to speed up refactoring, standardize code and reduce manual effort, with continuous human validation. It included architectural modernization with Standalone Components, Signals, the new Control Flow, dependency updates and style refactoring.
Result
Complete elimination of security vulnerabilities, significant performance gains in real-time rendering, and a marked reduction in code complexity and coupling. The result was a modern, scalable architecture, with greater predictability for future evolution and delivery of a new, documented Angular 20 codebase ready to support the product's growth.
