Waiting on IT to change it?

The rule, not the code

Change the rule without changing the code

A policy changes, and the logic that enforces it is buried in an application somewhere. So the request goes to IT, joins the queue, and the business waits weeks for a change it could describe in a sentence. InRule pulls that logic out of the code and into rules the people who own the policy can read, test, and update themselves. Every change is versioned, tested against a regression suite, and explainable afterwards, which is why it holds up in insurance, banking, healthcare, and government rather than only in low-stakes workflows. Barclays, Aon, Bupa, and Pacific Life run on it.

What is it:

A decision automation platform that takes business rules out of application code, so policies can be modeled, tested, and deployed without a development cycle.

Who is it for:

Teams in regulated industries where business logic changes often and every change has to be auditable, plus the IT departments carrying those requests.

Alternative to:

IBM Operational Decision Manager, Pega, FICO Blaze Advisor, Red Hat Decision Manager (Drools), Progress Corticon, or business logic hard-coded into the application itself.

Why we like it:

We like InRule because the audit trail is built into the change process, so proving why a decision was made doesn't become a separate project.
