# Concogic

*/Startups/Concogic*

## Startup Overview

This platform ingests compliance codes, legal statutes, and regulatory frameworks, converting them directly into automated rules engines that run against corporate datasets. It translates dense regulatory text into executable validation logic, replacing static legal memos with live compliance checks.

Compliance teams and general counsels struggle to map shifting jurisdictional regulations to internal business processes. Instead of relying on manual legal review that produces unactionable guidance, these departments deploy the platform to execute logic that flags structural violations before transactions clear.

While legacy tools like Kira Systems or Ironclad AI extract contract clauses and manage document workflows, this system enforces operational constraints. It builds explicitly deterministic reasoning trails where every blocked action links securely to the exact regulatory mandate that triggered it. Delivered on an outcome-priced model, the platform charges based on successfully validated operations rather than per-user software subscriptions.

## Startup Founding Hypothesis

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting a 100% deterministic traceability rate for compliance officers auditing algorithmic decisions
- Aiming to reduce manual legal mapping time from weeks to hours for new multi-state rollouts
- Designed to execute thousands of daily validation checks with zero un-cited logic branches
**Tiers**:
- Name: Per-Rule Extraction · Price: ~$15–$35 per regulatory rule translated · Inclusions: Conversion of unstructured regulatory text into a single executable logic statement, complete with a deterministic citation trail mapped to the source document.
- Name: Live Validation Runs · Price: ~$0.05–$0.20 per compliance check · Inclusions: Execution of the generated ruleset against incoming customer data payloads to return a strict pass, fail, or flag response.
- Name: Custom Jurisdiction Package · Price: ~$2,000–$5,000/mo per jurisdiction · Inclusions: Continuous monitoring of selected state or federal registers, automatically updating the executable rulesets when underlying regulatory text changes.
**Guarantee**: Concogic guarantees that every piece of executable logic maps deterministically to a specific source citation; if a rule cannot provide an exact audit trail back to the text, the customer receives a full refund for that translation batch.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- AI models hallucinate legal definitions: Concogic outputs deterministic logic gates and explicitly maps every node back to the exact source paragraph, removing generative guessing.
- Regulatory text is too ambiguous to map perfectly: Where text is genuinely ambiguous or contradictory, the system flags the specific clause for human legal review rather than forcing an automated assumption.
- It will not integrate with our existing governance stack: The system is designed to output standard JSON schemas or Python validation logic, intended to drop directly into existing enterprise rules engines.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- 30-day single-jurisdiction mapping: Translate the core operating regulations of one target state into executable logic to prove the system correctly returns strict pass or fail validations with a 100 percent exact citation trail.
- 60-day historical validation run: Execute the generated rulesets against 10000 past customer data payloads to demonstrate that the system accurately identifies compliance breaches with complete auditability.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 100 percent deterministic traceability mapping for every generated executable logic statement
- Aim: Reduction from weeks to under 48 hours for mapping new multi-state regulatory rollouts
- Target: Zero un-cited logic branches in daily compliance validation checks
- Aim: 90 percent decrease in external legal spend for initial technical compliance mapping
**Target Case Studies**:
- Mid-sized consumer lending fintech expanding across 50 states. Target transformation: Translating state-specific interest rate caps from unstructured legal code into executable JSON rulesets, eliminating the need for external counsel to manually draft logic requirements for engineering teams.
- Enterprise property and casualty insurance carrier. Target transformation: Replacing manual weekly checks of state insurance registers with continuous monitoring that automatically updates underlying logic when cancellation-notice regulations change.
- Telehealth platform managing multi-state provider compliance. Target transformation: Integrating live validation runs into patient onboarding to verify state-by-state prescribing limits, yielding a strict pass or fail response tied directly to a deterministic legal citation trail.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- Chief Compliance Officer: Validation that the platform removes generative guessing by mapping every single logic gate directly back to the exact source paragraph for complete auditability.
- Lead Engineering Manager: Confirmation that the generated JSON schemas and Python validation logic drop directly into existing enterprise rules engines without requiring custom middleware.
- General Counsel: Relief that when regulatory text is genuinely ambiguous, the system explicitly flags the clause for human legal review rather than forcing an automated and legally risky assumption.

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:
- Severity: existential · Description: Ambiguous regulatory text prevents the generation of strictly deterministic logic, causing unseen compliance failures and triggering massive customer liability. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: The outcome-priced business model depletes capital reserves if a logic translation error results in a client regulatory fine that the company must contractually cover. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: high · Description: Enterprise compliance officers block the deployment of automated logic execution because internal risk policies mandate manual legal review for final signoff. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: moderate · Description: Incumbents like Kira Systems build verifiable reasoning trails into their widely deployed workflow platforms, neutralizing the core technical differentiator. · Mitigation Status: in-progress

## Startup Story Brand

**Hero**:
- **Need**: to be the architect of a provably compliant system, not a manual gatekeeper
- **Want**: to translate dense regulatory mandates into executable validation logic
- **Identity**: the compliance lead at a multi-state fintech or lender
**Plan**:
- Step: Select Mandates · Detail: Upload the PDF or link the state register citations requiring immediate technical validation.
- Step: Review Logic · Detail: Verify the auto-generated logic gates alongside the side-by-side deterministic audit trails.
- Step: Deploy Schema · Detail: Export the executable rules directly into your existing enterprise governance stack or rules engine.
**Guide**:
- **Empathy**: Deployment deadlines are won in the first forty-eight hours of a legal update — but most compliance teams spend that time chasing down citations.
**Problem**:
- **Villain**: manual legal mapping
- **External**: Regulatory updates in state registers require weeks of manual translation into spreadsheets and legacy rules engines like Drools or Pega before a new product can launch.
- **Internal**: You feel the constant anxiety of a 'hidden hallucination' buried in thousands of lines of untraceable logic.
- **Philosophical**: Regulatory mandates were built for clear enforcement, not for losing their meaning in a black-box translation layer.
**Success**: Launch in new states in hours with a 100% deterministic audit trail for every automated decision.
**One Liner**: Instead of manual legal review slowing down product launches, Concogic translates regulatory mandates into deterministic, executable validation logic — ensuring every automated decision has a traceable citation.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: deploy mandates as code with 100% citation traceability
- **Unlike**: Manual Legal Review
- **For Whom**: Compliance leads at multi-state fintechs
- **Category**: Regulatory-to-Logic Translation Service
**Call To Action**:
- **Direct**: Translate a rule
- **Transitional**: View sample logic schema
**Failure Stakes**:
- Launch delays across jurisdictions
- Undetected non-compliance penalties
- Audit trail documentation gaps
**Transformation**:
- **To**: free to architect automated governance, no longer stuck manual-mapping regulatory clauses
- **From**: a legal reviewer buried in cross-referencing PDFs
**Controlling Idea**: Regulatory compliance should be a deterministic logic gate, not a manual translation burden.
