Norm AI provides AI-powered regulatory compliance tools for large enterprises in regulated industries. It builds autonomous AI agents (based on large language models) that perform compliance checks on proposed content or actions, evaluating whether they meet applicable regulations, highlighting issues and explaining the legal basis. The system allows high-level task delegation by compliance teams and supports validation of results at any detail level. The product is offered as a subscription service, with potential custom solutions and consulting. Unlike many RegTech tools that offer static rules or manual oversight, Norm AI emphasizes proactive risk mitigation and streamlined, explainable compliance reviews through adaptable agents. Its goal is to shorten compliance timelines, improve accuracy, and enable teams to delegate routine regulatory tasks to AI agents while maintaining oversight.
