Introducing Kai for RAD Studio – Embarcadero’s agentic AI platform
News|2 June 2026

More than code suggestions – A true AI collaborator
Traditional AI tools stop at suggestions. Kai goes further.
As an agentic platform, Kai can:
- Generate code and user interfaces
- Compile projects and surface issues early
- Resolve errors and support refactoring
- Execute tasks inside and outside the IDE
- Orchestrate complex workflows using MCP‑powered automation
This means you can delegate repeatable or time‑consuming tasks to Kai, while staying focused on design, logic and innovation. From building new applications to modernising legacy codebases, Kai adapts to the way you work – not the other way around.
Built for real‑world development challenges
Whether you’re:
- Accelerating greenfield development
- Refactoring and modernising existing applications
- Managing complex multi‑language projects
- Balancing speed, quality and technical debt
Kai is designed to assist with complex, multi‑step work, acting as an extension of your development team rather than a standalone tool.
Its agentic approach allows it to understand context, chain actions together and support end‑to‑end tasks – helping you and your teams deliver faster without sacrificing control or quality.
Freedom of choice with a BYOK model
One of Kai’s standout strengths is flexibility.
Built on a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model, Kai supports a wide range of leading large language models, including:
- GitHub Copilot
- OpenAI
- Claude
- Gemini
- Local models
This gives you control over performance, cost and data privacy, allowing teams to choose the AI models that best fit their technical, commercial and compliance requirements.
Rather than locking developers into a single ecosystem, Kai enables choice – a critical factor for enterprise development teams.
A smarter way to build with Delphi and C++Builder
For teams using Delphi, C++Builder and RAD Studio, Kai represents a significant step forward in how AI can be embedded into professional software development.
By combining automation, orchestration and AI collaboration, Kai helps you:
- Reduce manual effort
- Improve consistency
- Tackle modernisation projects with confidence
- Focus on higher‑value engineering work
In short, Kai brings agentic AI into the IDE – turning AI from a passive helper into an active participant in the development process.
