Why AI Won't Replace Low-Code Platforms

Gartner® Research: The Perfect Partnership

The AI revolution is here. But does that mean your low-code investment is obsolete?

Not even close.

The latest research from Gartner® confirms what forward-thinking leaders already know: AI doesn’t replace low-code platforms, it supercharges them.

While “vibe coding” tools generate mountains of untraceable code, low-code platforms like Mendix provide the governance, reuse, and security that enterprise applications demand.

The difference? Vibe coding accelerates typing. Low-code accelerates engineering.

With Mendix Maia, you get the best of both worlds: AI-powered development within a governed environment that reduces technical debt instead of creating it.

  • Why low-code platforms remain critical in the age of AI

Don’t just code faster. Build better.
