Assembly 2.0 debuts client portal upgrades

This feels less like a surface polish pass and more like Assembly trying to become the operating system for client-facing service firms. The strongest move here is not any single feature, but the way the release reduces clutter and makes the portal adaptable enough for different client types and internal workflows.

• –Homepage variants and app folders solve the classic portal problem: too much information, not enough structure
• –Recurring and time-based automations push Assembly beyond file sharing into real ops automation
• –Tasks tied to clients, plus the rebuilt Tasks API, should matter most to teams that want custom workflows or integrations
• –The AI story is still secondary; this is primarily workflow infrastructure with an assistant layer on top
• –Assembly is now competing more directly with HoneyBook, Moxo, and SuiteDash by bundling portal, CRM, payments, and automation into one system
