THE CHALLENGE

Regulatory change is outrunning the systems built to manage it. 

Most large compliance programs run on a platform, not designed for today's pace of regulatory change. Regulatory information sits in spreadsheets, niche tools, document repositories, and individual analyst memories. There is no central, current, quarriable view of every obligation the business is subject to. When a regulator asks a question, the answer depends on which analyst is in the room and which spreadsheet is the most recent.  

THE PACE OF CHANGE

200+ regulatory changes are released every day. 

The average regulated institution tracks 200+ regulatory changes daily across jurisdictions, agencies, and frameworks (Thomson Reuters, 2024). Regulations are outpacing what compliance teams can track.

RULES IN MOTION

Regulatory whack-a-mole - regulations keep changing direction

Rules no longer hold still long enough for compliance teams to retool. By the time a control is deployed, the underlying obligation has moved.

NEW AI REGULATIONS

Generic AI cannot prove its work.

Regulators now require documented proof of how and where AI is used in compliance decisions. They expect an auditable record of what the AI concluded, how it reached that conclusion, and what trail it left behind. Generic LLMs produce error rates up to 94% on domain-specific compliance queries. Bolt-on logging is not an audit trail.

The compliance programs that will stand up to tomorrow's scrutiny cannot be built on infrastructure designed for yesterday's pace.

PERFORMANCE METRICS

95% extraction accuracy after expert review

Contextual intelligence to fuel AI

25+ years as the system of record for risk, compliance, audit, and third-party risk.

SCALE

22M Authoritative Sources 

Engineered for regulatory change

AI AGENTS ARE OUTPACING GOVERNANCE
