// citations

Source-cited answers,
not hallucinations.

Every RegIntel record includes a source_url pointing to the regulator's own page. Your LLM can quote that URL in its reply, and the user can verify the answer in one click. Here's the pattern end-to-end.

USER ASKS

"My SaaS hosts EU customer data. Do I need to comply with GDPR, and what does that actually require?"

LLM CALLS REGINTEL
GET https://api.regintelapi.com/regulations/123
x-api-key: YOUR_KEY
REGINTEL RESPONDS (truncated)
{
  "id": 123,
  "country": "EU",
  "industry": "Privacy",
  "regulation": "The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2016/679 governs the processing of personal data within the EU and the EEA, and applies to any organisation that processes such data regardless of where the organisation is established.",
  "scope": "Any organisation that processes personal data of individuals in the EU, regardless of where the organisation is established.",
  "obligations": "Lawful basis for processing, data minimisation, transparent privacy notices, data subject rights, breach notification within 72 hours, DPO appointment in qualifying cases.",
  "penalties": "Up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher.",
  "key_articles": "Arts. 5, 6, 13–14, 33, 37–39, 83",
  "source_url": "https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj"
}
LLM REPLIES WITH A CITATION

Yes. If your SaaS processes personal data of individuals in the EU, GDPR applies to you regardless of where your company is registered. The core obligations are:

  • A lawful basis for every processing activity
  • Data minimisation and transparent privacy notices
  • Mechanisms for users to exercise their rights (access, deletion, portability)
  • Breach notification within 72 hours
  • A Data Protection Officer if you fall under Art. 37 criteria

Penalties go up to €20M or 4% of global annual turnover. Source: eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj (official EU legislation portal).

The user clicks through to the regulator's own page to verify. The LLM's answer is grounded, the citation is canonical, and the audit trail goes all the way back to the source. See how RegIntel sources data for the full methodology.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from AI and LLM developers.

Can I use RegIntel data in a RAG pipeline?

Yes. Each regulation comes as structured JSON with obligations, scope, penalties, tags and a source URL — ready to chunk, embed, and index in any vector store. Use GET /regulations to bulk-load coverage and GET /updates?since=<date> to keep your index incrementally fresh.

How fresh is the regulatory data?

Updater scrapers run continuously across regulator websites (AUSTRAC, FCA, MAS, SEC, FINRA, and dozens more). New regulations and amendments typically appear in the API within 24–48 hours of public release. Poll GET /updates to detect deltas instead of re-ingesting the entire catalog.

Why use RegIntel instead of scraping regulator websites directly?

Scraping public regulator sites means writing 41+ bespoke parsers, handling rate limits and bot blocks, normalising inconsistent HTML across jurisdictions, and constantly re-checking sources for changes. RegIntel does all of that once on your behalf and exposes the result as clean, queryable JSON.

Can my LLM cite specific regulation articles?

Yes. Every regulation record includes a key_articles field and a source_url pointing to the authoritative regulator page, so your LLM can produce verifiable citations rather than hallucinated references.
