Turning Hours of Regulatory Research Into Minutes

Businesses expanding into new regions often had the same problem: they did not know which regulations applied to them.

Their options were limited:

Spend hours researching regulations manually

Pay for professional advice before knowing whether it was even necessary

Risk missing requirements altogether

The founder wanted to create a faster first step between manual research and specialist consultation.

We designed a regulation tracking and guidance platform that helps businesses quickly understand which requirements may apply to them.

Users answer a short set of guided questions based on their:

The platform then surfaces the relevant regulatory information and helps users understand what requires attention.

For situations that cannot be confidently resolved through the platform, users can move directly to a specialist for further guidance.

I worked closely with the founder from initial discovery through delivery.

My work covered:

Product discovery and requirements

User journeys and platform workflows

Feature prioritisation

UX/UI direction

Development coordination

Testing and delivery

The focus throughout was simple: turn a complicated research process into something a business owner could understand quickly.

Regulatory Updates Track relevant regulatory changes in one place.

Jurisdiction Tracking Understand requirements across different regions.

Compliance Tasks Turn regulatory requirements into clear actions.

Impact Assessment Identify which changes require immediate attention.

Specialist Escalation Give users a clear next step when a case requires professional review.

The platform reduced a research-heavy process from hours to minutes for straightforward cases, giving businesses a much faster way to understand where they stand before deciding whether specialist support is needed.
