RuleCast · the regulatory and compliance agent
A rule changes. RuleCast shows you what it touches.
From the published regulation to the obligations it creates, the policies that already cover them, the gaps that remain and the evidence behind each one — every step traceable to the provision it came from. Built for regulated financial firms, deployed in your jurisdiction. It is not finished, and we are looking for a small number of design partners to build it with us.
What is a design partner?
A small number of regulated financial firms who help build RuleCast, rather than buy a finished product. It is a trade, and both sides give something real.
What you get
- Early access as each part of RuleCast becomes usable
- Direct input into what gets built next, and how
- Pricing locked in ahead of general availability
- A genuine seat at the table, not a feedback form
What we ask for
- Real usage on real work, not a sandbox trial
- Honest feedback, including when something does not work
- Eventually, permission to reference the work publicly
What RuleCast does
In developmentOne agent for the regulatory work a compliance function actually does, covering MiCA, DORA, AML and national law. It reaches a conclusion about nothing: there is no compliance verdict and no score anywhere in it. It assembles the trail and a person decides. Design partners decide what it has to do to be worth using.
A regulatory inbox, not another newsletter
Publications collected from the official sources — ESMA, EBA, FMA, the Austrian legal gazette — then classified by framework, with the change identified and the obligations extracted, each kept only when the text itself states it.
Does this apply to us?
Every obligation is assessed against your firm's profile: licence, services, jurisdiction. You get the reasoning, the factors that matched and, where the answer is not clear, what is missing — so the queue is the handful that genuinely need a person.
What your own policies already say
Obligations are broken into atomic requirements and compared against your internal policies and procedures. Each requirement shows the policy section that covers it, quoted verbatim, or that nothing was found. Covered, partially covered, not identified — never a score.
From gap to action to evidence
A confirmed gap becomes a remediation action with an owner, a priority and a date. Each requirement records the evidence expected to show it is actually performed, so the question at audit time is whether the evidence exists, not where to start looking.
An audit trail you can hand over
Every requirement can be replayed in order: the publication, the obligation, who assessed applicability, what the agent suggested, what a person changed and why, the actions taken and the evidence attached. Exportable as a single PDF per framework.
Ask it about your own records
A read-only assistant that answers from what your firm has recorded, quoting the provision and linking to the obligation, policy section or assessment it drew on. It reads; it never decides.
Underneath, so the above can be trusted
- Provision-level change detection: the exact before and after text of every amended paragraph, marked wording-only or substantive
- Source assurance: what we hold is reconciled against what the official register says exists, so a missed amendment is caught rather than assumed
- Horizon scanning: Austrian legislative developments and ministerial drafts, before they become binding law
- Consolidated EU and UN sanctions lists, with every change between versions
Where RuleCast goes next
PlannedKnowing which rules apply is one half of a compliance function. The other half is the day-to-day work of checking who you are dealing with and what is moving. None of the following is built. It is where we think RuleCast goes, and design partners decide whether, and in what order.
Identity and business verification
Onboarding checks for individuals and companies, including ownership structures resolved to the people behind them, carried out through the verification providers and registries a firm already uses.
Screening and list monitoring
Sanctions, politically exposed person and adverse media checks, re-run when a list changes rather than on a calendar, with each match and its disposition recorded.
Customer risk, with its reasons
A risk view assembled from the factors a firm's own policy names, where every rating carries the reasons that produced it. Whatever form this takes, an unexplained number will not be it.
Transaction and counterparty monitoring
Alerts from a firm's payment and transfer activity, triaged into cases rather than a queue, with the pattern that triggered them stated.
Cases, reports and filings
The evidence pack RuleCast already assembles, extended into the case and reporting formats supervisors ask for, so a filing is drawn from the record rather than rewritten by hand.
What stays the same wherever this goes: every check traced to the rule that requires it, every decision carrying its reasons, and the record kept for as long as a supervisor can ask about it.
Data sovereignty, wherever you operate.
Deployed in your jurisdiction — never a shared US hyperscaler by default.
Governance and audit trails are part of the architecture, not a layer added once something goes wrong.
Build it with us
We are taking on a small number of design partners for RuleCast. If your firm is too regulated for consumer AI tools and too small for a dedicated AI team, that is exactly who this is for.
