THE PROBLEM
Compliance today is manual, fragile, and falling behind
Regulatory pressure is growing. Teams are stretched. Most organisations are still running compliance from spreadsheets, email chains, and institutional memory.
📋
Spreadsheet-based compliance
Control registers live in Excel. Evidence is scattered across shared drives. No one knows which version is current. Audit prep takes weeks of manual collation.
🔍
Manual document reviews
Compliance officers spend hours reading policies and promotions line by line. It's slow, inconsistent, and doesn't scale when regulation changes.
⚠️
Regulatory change overwhelm
New regulations, updated guidance, evolving standards, your team can't keep pace. By the time a change is assessed, the next one has already landed.
🔗
No traceability
When a regulator asks "show me how you comply with clause 5.2", there's no clear chain from obligation to control to evidence. The answer is a person's memory, not a system.
💰
Enterprise GRC is out of reach
Platforms like ServiceNow and Archer cost six figures, take months to implement, and require dedicated specialists. They're designed for the largest organisations, not yours.
🤖
AI you can't trust
Generic AI tools hallucinate, can't explain their reasoning, and aren't tested before deployment. You need AI that shows its working and proves it was validated before going live.
WHAT COGNIUM DELIVERS
From regulatory obligation to auditable evidence, automatically
Cognium doesn't just store compliance data. It actively reviews documents, assesses processes, and produces traceable, explainable outcomes.
01
AI reads actual regulatory text
Cognium reads the full text of regulations GDPR, FCA COBS, DSPT, ISO 27001, Consumer Duty, simultaneously with the document under review. Findings cite specific clauses, not vendor summaries.
02
Every control is tested before it goes live
No compliance rule can be deployed without passing mandatory simulation testing. Untested rules cannot operate. You know it works before it touches real data.
03
Full traceability, end to end
Every finding links back to the obligation, the control, the evidence, and the AI reasoning. When a regulator asks how you comply, the answer is a click away, not a week of prep.
04
Strategic risk and obligation registers
Configurable risk scoring, field-level audit trails, and many-to-many mapping between obligations and controls. Manage your risk landscape with a system designed for it, not a spreadsheet.
05
Findings that escalate, not sit
Non-compliant findings automatically create cases and escalations. Attestation workflows run through Microsoft Teams and Outlook. The tools your team already uses.
06
Transparent AI costs
No hidden AI charges. A real-time dashboard shows exactly what your AI consumption costs. You see what you're spending before you're billed, not after.
