SaaS Platform for Policy Simulation

Model real-world policies.

Test outcomes.

Build smarter playbooks.

Sandscope helps policy teams and researchers simulate interventions before implementation.

Our Policy Writer uses data models and simulations to forecast the effects of policy changes. Compare outcomes, assess trade-offs, and turn findings into structured playbooks your organisation can act on.

Sandscope

Simulating governance for a more informed world.

What if governance worked like science?

Policies, regulations, and sustainability commitments shape markets — yet most are still designed without a safe space to test their effects.

Sandscope builds interactive environments that let organisations simulate, visualise, and understand the ripple effects of complex decisions before they're made.

Our SaaS platform features the Governance Sandbox for testing scenarios and the Policy Writer for converting learnings into actionable playbooks.
