Compliance &amp; Legal Management

https://www.complydo.io Overview Global enterprises operate under an accelerating burden of regulatory compliance. ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, NIS-2, DORA, PCI DSS, and hundreds of jurisdiction-specific mandates create overlapping obligations that shift continuously. Traditional compliance management relies on manual PDF analysis, consultant-driven gap assessments, and sprawling spreadsheets documenting control mappings—processes consuming months of specialized labor and hundreds of thousands in external consulting fees. ComplyDo addresses this through an AI-powered compliance automation platform designed specifically for mid-market and enterprise organizations navigating multi-framework regulatory environments. Rather than limiting organizations to pre-built framework libraries, ComplyDo's AI ingests any regulatory document—laws, standards, customer requirements, investor mandates—and automatically extracts obligations, maps them to internal controls, identifies gaps, and monitors ongoing changes. This flexibility-first approach enables organizations to maintain continuous compliance across diverse regulatory landscapes without proportional increases in compliance team size or consultant dependency. Key Features ComplyDo delivers comprehensive GRC automation capabilities built specifically for complex, multi-jurisdiction compliance requirements: Universal Regulatory Requirement Extraction: ComplyDo's AI processes regulatory documents in any format—PDFs, Word files, HTML pages, proprietary frameworks—and automatically extracts specific obligations, requirements, and control expectations. Unlike platforms limited to pre-curated framework libraries, ComplyDo handles custom regulations, emerging mandates, industry-specific standards, investor security questionnaires, and client-specific requirements without waiting for vendor updates. Intelligent Control Mapping Engine: The platform automatically maps extracted regulatory requirements to your existing internal control sets, policies, procedures, and technical implementations. This creates auditable linkages between external mandates and internal compliance activities, eliminating weeks of manual cross-referencing and enabling clear evidence chains for auditors. Automated Gap Analysis with Remediation Roadmaps: ComplyDo analyzes mappings to identify where regulatory requirements lack corresponding controls, where existing controls provide incomplete coverage, or where policy documentation requires updates. The system generates gap analysis reports in approximately 20 minutes and recommends specific next steps for remediation, prioritized by risk and compliance urgency. Continuous Regulatory Change Monitoring: The platform monitors regulatory frameworks for updates, amendments, and new obligations, alerting compliance teams immediately when changes affect their control environment. This proactive monitoring replaces reactive discovery during audit preparation with continuous awareness of evolving compliance landscapes. Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) Automation: ComplyDo extends compliance automation to vendor ecosystems, automatically mapping supplier evidence and certifications to applicable frameworks, evaluating vendor gaps against organizational requirements, and maintaining real-time transparency on third-party compliance coverage. Multi-Framework Orchestration: Organizations managing compliance across multiple frameworks (ISO 27001 + SOC 2 + GDPR + industry-specific mandates) leverage ComplyDo's cross-mapping capabilities to identify overlapping requirements, deduplicate control implementations, and satisfy multiple obligations with unified evidence—implementing "comply once, comply many" efficiency. Legal Decomposition and Policy Alignment: For organizations with distributed entities or regional variations, ComplyDo decomposes global regulatory requirements into entity-specific obligations and aligns local policies with centralized governance frameworks, maintaining consistency while respecting jurisdictional differences. Enterprise-Grade Security and Deployment: Built by cybersecurity specialists from the Hasso Plattner Institute, ComplyDo implements security-by-design principles across its architecture. The platform supports deployment on sovereign cloud infrastructure for data residency requirements and maintains compliance with ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS-2, DORA, TISAX, and OWASP standards. How It Works ComplyDo transforms manual compliance workflows into automated, continuous processes centered on AI-driven requirement intelligence. Implementation begins with framework ingestion. Organizations upload regulatory documents—industry standards, certifications they're pursuing, jurisdiction-specific laws, customer security requirements, or internal governance policies. ComplyDo's AI analyzes these documents regardless of format or structure, extracting specific obligations, control expectations, evidence requirements, and compliance timelines. Simultaneously, organizations define their control environment within ComplyDo—documenting existing security controls, operational policies, technical implementations, and compliance processes. This can involve uploading current documentation, integrating with existing GRC systems, or building the control library directly within the platform. With both regulatory requirements and organizational controls documented, ComplyDo's mapping engine activates. The AI analyzes each extracted regulatory obligation and identifies corresponding internal controls, creating explicit linkages. For requirements lacking coverage, the system flags gaps and recommends control implementations or policy updates to achieve compliance. The output materializes as comprehensive gap analysis reports detailing: which requirements have complete control coverage; where controls exist but documentation requires enhancement; which obligations lack any corresponding controls; and prioritized remediation roadmaps with specific actions, ownership recommendations, and implementation timelines. These reports generate in approximately 20 minutes rather than the weeks traditional consultant-driven assessments require. Following initial gap closure, ComplyDo shifts to continuous monitoring mode. The platform tracks regulatory frameworks for updates, monitors control effectiveness, manages evidence collection timelines, and alerts teams when framework changes introduce new obligations or when existing controls drift from compliance standards. This ongoing vigilance replaces point-in-time assessments with real-time compliance posture visibility. For organizations managing vendor ecosystems, TPRM workflows operate similarly: suppliers provide certifications and evidence; ComplyDo maps these against required frameworks; gaps surface automatically; and purchasing/security teams gain centralized visibility into third-party compliance status across all vendors. Throughout all workflows, ComplyDo maintains complete traceability. Every extracted requirement links back to source documents; every control mapping includes rationale and validation; every gap identification documents current state and remediation path—creating audit-ready documentation by default. Use Cases ComplyDo's flexible compliance automation addresses diverse GRC challenges across enterprise contexts: Multi-Framework Certification Acceleration: Organizations pursuing multiple certifications simultaneously (ISO 27001 + SOC 2 + HIPAA + PCI DSS) use ComplyDo to identify overlapping control requirements, deduplicate implementation efforts, and accelerate certification timelines by months. Rather than treating each framework independently, teams build unified control sets satisfying multiple standards. Regulatory Change Management: Compliance teams monitoring evolving regulations (NIS-2 implementation, DORA requirements, AI Act provisions) leverage ComplyDo's continuous monitoring to immediately understand how regulatory updates affect their control environment, which gaps emerge from new obligations, and what remediation actions become necessary—transforming reactive scrambling into proactive adaptation. Global Market Expansion: Enterprises entering new geographic markets use ComplyDo to rapidly assess jurisdiction-specific compliance requirements, map existing controls against new mandates, identify market entry gaps, and accelerate regulatory approval processes. This reduces market entry timelines from quarters to weeks by automating compliance validation. Consultant Dependency Reduction: Organizations spending hundreds of thousands annually on compliance consultants bring gap assessments, control mapping, and framework analysis in-house through ComplyDo automation. Consultant relationships shift from execution (generating gap analyses) to advisory (interpreting complex regulatory nuances), dramatically reducing external spend while improving response speed. Audit Preparation and Evidence Management: Internal audit, external certification audits, and regulatory examinations become continuous-ready rather than scrambled preparations. ComplyDo maintains current gap analyses, documents control-to-requirement mappings, and provides auditors with transparent evidence chains demonstrating compliance posture. Third-Party Risk Consolidation: Organizations managing hundreds of vendors use ComplyDo to centralize supplier compliance tracking, automatically evaluate vendor certifications against internal requirements, identify high-risk vendors lacking adequate controls, and maintain real-time visibility into supply chain compliance exposure.

Considerations Mid-Market and Enterprise Focus: ComplyDo targets organizations managing multiple frameworks across jurisdictions. Small businesses with simple, single-framework compliance needs may find the platform over-engineered for their requirements. The absence of public pricing suggests enterprise-oriented commercial models. Initial Configuration Investment: While deployment completes in hours, organizations with complex, highly customized control environments may require initial configuration time to accurately represent existing controls and map to organizational structure. Expert support mitigates this, but thoughtful setup improves automation quality. AI Validation Requirements: Although ComplyDo's AI dramatically accelerates requirement extraction and mapping, organizations may choose to validate AI-generated outputs—particularly for high-stakes regulatory contexts or novel framework interpretations—before relying exclusively on automated analysis. Change Management for Consultant-Dependent Teams: Organizations accustomed to consultant-driven compliance workflows require change management to shift from external execution to in-house automation. This represents a process transformation beyond simple tool adoption.

These solutions suit organizations standardized on vendor ecosystems seeking unified platforms. ComplyDo offers specialist compliance automation without requiring enterprise-wide platform commitments, enabling faster deployment and focused functionality without IT transformation projects. ComplyDo's competitive differentiation centers on three integrated capabilities less emphasized by competitors: universal regulatory document ingestion via AI processing any format rather than pre-built library dependency; 20-minute gap analysis generation delivering consultant-quality assessments at machine speed; and flexible framework support accommodating emerging regulations, custom requirements, and jurisdiction-specific mandates immediately. For organizations managing diverse regulatory portfolios across jurisdictions, pursuing novel certifications, or reducing consultant dependency while maintaining compliance rigor, ComplyDo delivers specialized automation bridging regulatory intelligence and compliance execution. Final Thoughts Enterprise compliance complexity grows exponentially as organizations expand geographically, pursue multiple certifications, and navigate accelerating regulatory evolution. Traditional approaches—consultant-driven gap assessments, manual PDF analysis, spreadsheet-based control mapping—cannot scale with regulatory velocity or geographic scope. The resulting bottleneck manifests as delayed market entry, prolonged certification timelines, persistent audit findings, and escalating external consulting costs. ComplyDo transforms this dynamic by making compliance intelligence machine-driven rather than human-dependent. By automating the extraction of regulatory obligations, mapping to organizational controls, and identification of coverage gaps, the platform eliminates months of specialized labor while improving analysis comprehensiveness and response speed. For mid-market and enterprise organizations navigating multi-framework compliance across jurisdictions—particularly those seeking to reduce consultant dependency, accelerate certification timelines, or maintain continuous compliance posture amid regulatory change—ComplyDo delivers measurable efficiency gains and cost reductions. As regulatory complexity continues intensifying and compliance teams face growing scope without proportional budget increases, platforms that automate regulatory intelligence rather than merely evidence collection become essential infrastructure for sustainable compliance operations. https://www.complydo.io
