  "account": "Dodge AI, a San Francisco-based startup, has raised $2.65 million in funding from Accel and Google Ventures to develop self-healing ERP systems. The company's platform acts as a control plane over enterprise applications like SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, Kinaxis, and Oracle JDE, resolving incidents and change requests while recording the unique logic that defines each company's setup. This enables engineers and AI agents to work from a single, comprehensive manual.\n\nEnterprise technology budgets are growing rapidly, with forecasts predicting worldwide IT spending to reach $6.37 trillion in 2026, up 14.2% from 2025. The enterprise maintenance market, which encompasses the exceptions, configurations, and operational logic that govern how companies operate, is a significant component of this budget. Gartner estimates IT services to account for $1.57 trillion in 2026, with software spending growing at a faster rate.\n\nThe legacy systems in use today, such as SAP's ECC platform, illustrate the scale of the problem. Over 35,000 customers still rely on the older ECC platform, with only 39% having migrated to the newer S/4HANA. The cost of maintaining and transitioning these systems is substantial, with Gartner estimating transition costs ranging from $2 million to $1 billion for large, complex installations. As technical debt accumulates, it becomes increasingly expensive to make changes and riskier to introduce new products.",
