Our take

Regulatory compliance is both critical and complex. Risks and regulations are constantly evolving, and compliance teams can struggle to keep up. This is where Norm AI steps in, with a platform to support the work of compliance teams and help them work faster, smarter and more efficiently.

The platform works by delivering regulation-aware AI agents, built specifically to handle the problems compliance teams face. The agents enable proactive compliance, supplying reports that check compliance against the most up-to-date versions of regulations such as the Clean Air Act and Social Security Act.

In the future, Norm AI hopes to expand the offering to cover all relevant laws and regulations. Its an ambitious goal, but one that is supported by a substantial amount of investment. With these funds, the company will continue to expand its platform and grow both its client base and team.
