Automated Compliance Checking
Gradial’s QA Agent can be configured to check every piece of content against your organization’s compliance rules before it reaches a human reviewer. Rules can enforce requirements such as:- Required disclosures and disclaimers — verify that specific legal language is present in the correct location on every page, email, or asset
- Prohibited or restricted claims — flag content that makes claims requiring substantiation, or that deviates from approved language
- Standard regulatory language — ensure boilerplate text (terms, privacy notices, offer conditions) matches the approved version exactly
- Trademark and IP usage — check that brand marks are correctly formatted and licensed assets are used appropriately
- Accessibility — WCAG 2.2 AA compliance checks on every output, automatically — a growing area of regulatory risk in the US and EU
Working with Legal-Marked Documents
Legal teams often return content with tracked changes, annotations, and redlines. Gradial can ingest these marked-up documents directly as task context — so agents understand what legal has flagged and apply the corrections accurately, without requiring manual interpretation or re-keying of changes. Supported inputs for legal review context:- Annotated Word documents (.docx with tracked changes or comments)
- PDF files with markup and annotations
- Redlined copy docs
- Structured spreadsheets mapping approved vs. revised language
Review, Annotation, and Approval Workflows
Gradial is designed to support the review cycles that regulated environments require — not bypass them.In-line commenting and annotation
In-line commenting and annotation
Reviewers can add comments and annotations directly within Gradial tasks. Legal, compliance, and marketing teams can discuss specific content changes in context — without switching to email or a separate tool. Comments are attached to the task and preserved in the audit trail.
Side-by-side comparison
Side-by-side comparison
Gradial maintains a clear before/after view of every change — showing exactly what the agent modified against the original content. This side-by-side view supports compliance review and sign-off without requiring reviewers to diff content manually.
PDF export for regulatory review
PDF export for regulatory review
Content and change records can be exported to PDF for formal regulatory review, filing support, or record-keeping. This is particularly useful for teams that need to submit content for external review or maintain a signed-off record of what was approved and when.
Staged publishing — never direct to production
Staged publishing — never direct to production
Gradial never writes directly to your production environment by default. All outputs are staged for review before anything goes live. This means compliance or legal review happens before publication — not after. See Content Updates for how staging works per platform.
Audit Trail and Traceability
Every action Gradial takes is logged:- What was changed, and what was left unchanged
- Which rules were applied and what they checked
- Which user initiated the task and when
- What the agent’s output was, and what was approved or rejected
Common Use Cases in Regulated Environments
Disclaimer and disclosure management
Automatically verify that required legal language is present across every page, email, or asset — at scale. When standard disclaimer language changes, update it across hundreds of pages in a single batch task.
Legal redline implementation
Ingest a legal-marked document and let agents apply the approved changes accurately — preserving context and reducing manual re-keying.
Compliance QA before launch
Run a compliance QA scan across all content before a campaign or site section goes live — catching missing disclosures, prohibited language, or accessibility issues automatically.
Regulatory review package
Export a side-by-side before/after PDF of content changes for formal regulatory review or internal sign-off — without manual documentation.
What Gradial Doesn’t Do
Gradial is a content execution and governance platform — not a regulatory compliance certification service. For questions about Gradial’s data handling, security posture, and vendor risk documentation, contact [email protected] or reach out to your Gradial onboarding manager.Related
