What it is
Law-as-Code translates legal texts into machine-readable, executable code. Laws become digital and accessible for the modern, digital world.
Law-as-Code
Laws a computer can
understand.
Law-as-Code describes a method for translating laws into machine-readable, executable code that software can use. Laws become readable both for humans and for machines. Yakady is the applied Law-as-Code engine for German residency law.
The concept
What Law-as-Code is, and why it matters.
Why it matters
German residency law changes multiple times a year. Every change has to be picked up by advisory centres and authorities, and procedures adjusted accordingly. Code scales. Plain text in a PDF doesn't.
Where Yakady sits
EU initiatives like Rules-as-Code and BMDS pilots focus on rulemaking. Compliance vendors like Rulemapping focus on audit. Yakady specialises in migration law - every § in the AufenthG/AsylG encoded as a route the case workspace can execute, today.
Need a § encoded for your program?
Our policy team writes machine-readable routes for any provision in the AufenthG, AsylG, or Land-level program - and ships them with the change-log your auditor will ask for.
