Inspiration
TikTok ships features worldwide, but every region has its own rules (GDPR in Europe, LGPD in Brazil, DSA in the EU, etc.). Today, figuring out if a feature needs special handling is manual and messy. We wanted a tool that flags risks automatically and leaves a clear audit trail.
What it does
LeCompliancer is an AI‑powered checker that:
- Scans product docs, rollout notes, and code changes.
- Cross‑checks them with laws and company policies.
- Flags when a feature needs region‑specific logic (like EU data exports or BR data localization).
- Creates a Compliance Card with required actions, citations, and a confidence score.
How we built it
- Inputs: PRDs, design docs, feature flags, and legal texts.
- LLM + Rules: LLM suggests links between features and laws
- Output: JSON Compliance Cards with controls and csv, sources, and next steps.
Challenges we ran into
- Internal jargon (codenames) confused the model: solved with alias mapping.
- LLM hallucinations: solved by forcing every answer to include a legal citation.
- Balancing false alarms vs. missed risks.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Working prototype that flagged >80% of known compliance needs correctly.
- Near‑real‑time: PRD: Compliance Card in minutes.
- Clear audit log of every decision.
What we learned
- LLMs work best when combined with simple rules.
- Structure and citations beat free‑text by using prompt engineering.
What's next for LeCompliancer
- Improve precision by doing more testing, training and refining prompt
- More automation: agents that re‑check features when laws change.
- One‑click compliance briefs for regulators.
- Scale dashboards so PMs, lawyers, and engineers can all see the same truth.
