Your clients shouldn't need five logins to work with you. Assembly gives them one polished portal for everything—messages, payments, files, tasks, and more. Assembly 2.0 adds a new client home page editor with variants, folders that let you organize apps on your sidebar, recurring automations, a desktop app with real notifications, and more. Less admin, more time for actual client work. Built for creative and professional service firms.
Hi PH, cofounder of Assembly here. Thanks for the hunt @benln
We're calling this 2.0 because it includes most of the top-requested features from the past year:
A new Client Home — Full redesign + you can now set up different homepage variants for different types of clients.
App folders — our users love customizing the sidebar in their portal with embedded tools. Now you can group them into collapsible folders. My favorite use case is putting a bunch of analytics embeds into one "Analytics" folder.
Better project management — you could already assign tasks to team members or clients, but now you can assign tasks internally and still associate them with a client. And you can mark those tasks client-visible so that clients can follow along with progress.
Time-based and recurring automations — we have our own built-in automation engine and it now supports time-based triggers and recurring rules.
Desktop app for Mac with native notifications. Windows is coming in a week.
A whole lot more — check it out!
We read every message. Would love to hear what you think, good and bad!
Congrats on 2.0! The client-visible tasks feature is really useful.
Do clients actually engage with the portal regularly, or does it take training to get them to use it vs email?
Congrats on the launch team! Been using the platform for almost 3 years now :)
This is a really cool idea, I recently decided to dig deeper into my website hosting and maintenance business offerings and this could be a nice addition to the offerings for clients!
Congrats on the launch team! In the age of vibe coding it's definitely important to emphasize the humans involved in making thoughtful decisions and improvements that make our product so good.
I'm definitely missing folks but this was a whole team effort! ❤️
The whole team worked hard to get this over the line, wouldn't have been possible without everyone involved!
I'm so excited to see this go live! We're really looking forward to people getting their hands on the new features we've been thinking about for so long
so excited to see this out in the wild - huge shoutout to the whole team on this one!
So much hard work and hours went into this! Congrats to the whole team! Bringing more and better experiences for service businesses
Huge congrats to the team on the launch 🚀 I know how much work went into this behind the scenes. Amazing to see it all come together.
Would one use Assembly to replace an existing tool (like Notion) or is it meant moreso to be complementary to other tools (like how one would use Jane App for billing and scheduling)?
Nice portal. But experience > interface.
Clients stay for results, not dashboards.
Client-visible tasks caught my attention — in practice it's always a balance between transparency and what clients don't need to see. Can you control which tasks are client-visible and which stay internal at the individual project level?
I like the design. Congrats on shipping. Could we automate payment collection based on certain triggers, for example, if an invoice is not paid in the next X days, there's an auto follow-up about it. I believe simple automations like these would also be available?
