What does a compliance agent check?

The Genow agent audits technical documents, engineering files and specifications against relevant standards (ISO, DIN, IEC), internal QA rules and regulatory requirements (Machinery Directive, REACH, RoHS etc.). Every finding ships with source, clause and recommendation.

‍

The problem

QA teams spend hours on standards alignment, often in the final project phase. Standard updates or internal policy changes surface too late. Cost and residual risk follow.

Architecture

Database: Standard texts (licensed), internal QM manuals, historical audit logs. Context Engine versions the standards and links clauses to internal rules, synchronized in real time with Genow from all systems. Capability: Document auditability that provides comparison, gap analysis, and justification.

Typical flow

Upload document or submit via API. The Agent identifies applicable standards. Clause-by-clause alignment. Output: flagged passages with status, source, recommendation. QA lead validates and decides.

Integration

As a sidebar in DMS (SharePoint, Teamcenter), as a comment layer in Word or PDF, via API for automated approval workflows, or directly as a specialized agent in the Genow knowledge platform.

Differentiator in the EU AI Act context

Every finding comes with an audit trail: which standard, which version, which internal rule applied.

ROI

The review time per document is typically 40–60% shorter. Earlier gap discovery shifts rework out of the critical phase.

FAQ

Does the agent replace certification bodies?

No. It supports internal review and preparation for external audits.

Which standards are supported?

Depending on licensing: ISO, DIN, IEC and sector-specific. Extensible.
