Hello from RegsApplied
A note from the founder on what we're building, why product-first compliance matters, and where the blog is going.

Most compliance tooling is built text-first: here's the full text of the Data Act, go dig. That helps regulators. It does not help a GC at a mid-market product company who needs to know, by next Thursday, whether their new AI feature is in scope.
RegsApplied is the other shape. You tell us what you're building; we draft an applicability analysis against the act you pick, with a verdict, quoted provisions and open questions. You confirm or override it, and every analysis is kept with its history.
What the blog is for
Two things.
- Deep dives, what does "data processing service" really mean under the Data Act? When does a connected product become an IoT data-sharing obligation? These are the posts we'd want to read, and we couldn't find them, so we're writing them.
- Updates, when we ship something that changes how analyses look, or how sign-off works, we'll say so here.
We write the first twenty of these ourselves. If they stop being useful, we stop writing them.
What we won't do
No "5 tips to improve your compliance posture" listicles. No gated PDFs. No interviews with people who haven't read the act they're commenting on.
