RAD Studio 13 Florence: Your smarter, safer, AI-ready development toolkit
News|11 September 2025
The world of software development is changing fast – and with RAD Studio 13 Florence, you’re not just keeping up, you’re leading the way.
Whether you’re building cross-platform apps, modernising legacy systems, or exploring the power of AI, this latest release gives you the tools to do it all – faster, smarter, and with complete control.
AI that works with you - not around you
RAD Studio 13 builds on the AI features introduced in version 12.2, transforming how you write code and what you can build. With Smart CodeInsight, you now have an AI programming partner that understands Object Pascal, FireMonkey, and the intricacies of native cross-platform development. It’s like having a teammate who knows your language – literally.
You’ll spend less time on boilerplate and more time solving real problems. And when it comes to building AI-powered apps for your customers, RAD Studio 13 gives you the flexibility to integrate with leading models like OpenAI, Google Gemini, and Claude – or run models locally with offline Ollama integration.
Built-in privacy and control
AI adoption often comes with a trade-off: convenience vs. control. Not anymore.
RAD Studio 13 introduces enterprise-grade privacy features that let you harness the power of AI without compromising your code’s security. Whether you're working in a regulated industry or handling sensitive IP, you can choose offline-only AI options to ensure your data never leaves your development environment.
You stay in charge – no exceptions.
A legacy of innovation, evolved for today
From its Turbo Pascal roots to today’s modern development challenges, RAD Studio has always helped you adapt and thrive. Version 13 Florence continues that tradition, giving you a future-ready platform that’s as powerful as it is familiar.
You don’t need to start from scratch. You just need the right tools to go further.
