Your calculations, efficiently automated

IDIOM enables organisations to easily build, automate and evidence even the most complex business logic without replacing existing systems or relying on development teams.

If you operate in an environment where accuracy and accountability matter, IDIOM puts your subject matter experts in control of the rules that run your business.

Accelerate your project work

Your most valuable business logic is buried in legacy systems, spreadsheets and manual processes that you can't easily audit, scale or change.

IDIOM is a low-code rules engine that lets your own experts build, maintain and evidence that logic, then integrate it directly into your existing systems without a major change project or missing a deadline, accurately and quickly.

  • You can update your rules yourself

    Business logic can be changed and maintained easily, at your desired pace, with full visibility of what the calculation or process is doing. Your subject matter experts can see the rules, understand them, and have confidence in the accuracy of the outputs.

  • Fully auditable

    Prove compliance in a way that spreadsheets and legacy code cannot. This stops inadvertent changes being made to critical business logic, and provides full visibility into what was changed, when and by whom.

  • Get started fast with no need for major systems changes
    IDIOM ingests data from any structure, and outputs in whatever format the receiving system requires. The same engine that validates a pricing model can orchestrate a data migration, manage a remediation workflow, or automate regulatory reporting.
