Today, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of Assemblic, a new Rules as Code (RaC) product designed to make managing, deploying and scaling rule-based systems easier than ever. Assemblic is built to provide seamless infrastructure and software management for those working with OpenFisca.
Even more exciting, our launch coincides with the establishment of the OpenFisca Association. OpenFisca has been instrumental in the growth of the Rules as Code movement, and we’re proud to contribute to this expanding ecosystem with Assemblic.
Why Assemblic for Rules as Code?
Having worked in the Rules as Code space for a few years, Assemblic founders saw a need for a reliable, scalable platform. Assemblic is designed to bridge the gap between policy intent and real-world implementation, offering a streamlined way to host, deploy and manage rule-based systems.
With Assemblic, you don’t need to worry about the technical complexities of infrastructure setup, deployment pipelines or secure hosting. We provide the tools and environment to let you focus on what matters—turning legislative rules into actionable code.
Assemblic’s features for Rules as Code
Assemblic streamlines the complexities of project setup, handling:
- Source code management
- Deployment pipelines
- Infrastructure setup and management
- Secure software hosting
- Advanced security features
Every new project is created with just a few clicks using prebuilt OpenFisca templates. Developers can manage their OpenFisca projects end-to-end within Assemblic’s simple UI, including making edits directly in the browser-based code editor.
Assemblic gives you access to a secure, high-performance infrastructure so you don’t need to design, build or maintain one. Each project benefits from:
- Web Application Firewall (WAF): Protecting APIs and applications from malicious traffic.
- Content Delivery Network (CDN): Ensuring lightning-fast access to your APIs worldwide.
- Edge Computing: Enabling low-latency performance for modern application needs.
Seamless security and performance
As soon as your project is live, Assemblic automatically generates an API that is secured by an integrated WAF and protected with an API token. The dashboard, WAF and authentication systems are powered by robust edge functions, delivering the highest levels of speed and security. At the same time, every OpenFisca project benefits from a preconfigured CDN, ensuring optimal performance for both small and large-scale deployments.
How Assemblic empowers the Rules as Code ecosystem
Governments and public sector
Government agencies are adopting Rules as Code to improve regulatory clarity, automate eligibility checking and enhance compliance enforcement. Assemblic provides a secure, scalable foundation for digital rule transformation, reducing administrative burdens and making regulations more accessible to citizens and businesses.
Businesses and legal tech innovators
Companies working with compliance, taxation and policy automation need robust tools to manage complex rule sets. Assemblic ensures that businesses can deploy and maintain digital rules efficiently, reducing operational risks and enhancing decision-making.
Why launch alongside the OpenFisca Association?
OpenFisca has played a fundamental role in the Rules as Code movement, enabling the creation of digital twins and simulations for tax and benefit systems (and many other use cases) across various jurisdictions. By launching Assemblic on the same day as the OpenFisca Association, we’re reinforcing our commitment to growing the ecosystem around Rules as Code.
OpenFisca provides an open-source framework for rule computation, while Assemblic complements this by offering a managed, scalable environment for deploying, hosting and maintaining rules in OpenFisca.
Get started with Assemblic
The future of digital rules is here, and we invite you to be part of it! Assemblic provides the infrastructure and tools you need to deploy and manage computational rules with confidence.
Join us as we shape the next generation of machine-readable, actionable rules. Let’s build a more transparent, efficient and accessible future together.
Why Rules as Code?
Rules as Code provides many benefits to citizens/users and government/organisations. For citizens/users Rules as Code provides:
- An improved user journey—instead of users having to trawl through lots of information to find the content and rules that are relevant to them, they can answer a few questions and get customised information.
- Greater transparency of law—users can interact with Rules as Code solutions for improved transparency.
- More accessible—Rules as Code implementations provide an easy way for people to access, interact with, and understand rules and legislation.
For governments/organisations, Rules as Code provides:
- Reusability—one rules engine can be used to serve many applications, such as multiple websites and internal systems.
- Easy management—in OpenFisca, you can keep historical, current and future rules in code for point-in-time calculations.
- Policy modelling—one of the advantages of creating a policy twin in OpenFisca is that OpenFisca is also built to do simulations, so you can experiment with changes and see the effects. This helps to show intended and unintended consequences of policy changes.
About the Assemblic team
Assemblic is made up of a team of digital and Rules as Code experts. Together, we have extensive experience delivering digital experiences for organisations, governments and citizens.
Our journey began with a shared belief—that the way legislation and rules are created, shared and implemented could be radically improved. By combining our expertise in technology, governance and open-source frameworks, we built Assemblic to address these challenges head-on. We are driven by the conviction that clear, codified rules can transform how governments operate, empower citizens and foster collaboration across the globe.
At Assemblic, we embrace innovation and collaboration at every step. We are passionate about creating solutions that simplify complex processes, reduce costs and enable organisations to focus on what truly matters—delivering value and impact. Through our work, we aim to build bridges between technology and governance, making rules not only easier to understand but also more actionable and efficient.
As an open-source advocate, Assemblic is proud to contribute to a global community of developers, policymakers and organisations dedicated to advancing the Rules as Code movement. By leveraging OpenFisca, we ensure our platform aligns with the highest standards of transparency, interoperability and adaptability, enabling users to achieve their goals with confidence.
About OpenFisca
OpenFisca was developed in 2011 by the French Government to codify its social security payment system. It’s an open source rules engine, based on Python.
