TheControList is the first compliance software that reduces the amount of time and costs with audit prep. All Ways Ready. All Ways in Control.
AI Companion
Meet TCL AI Companion — your compliance team’s new superpower. Instantly search across every policy, procedure, and memo to uncover exactly what you need: when a rule changed, when a client rolled something out, or what your firm’s stance is on a tricky topic. No more digging through folders — just ask, and get precise, source-based answers in seconds.
What the TCL AI Companion Does
Adds an AI layer on top of TCL so users can ask natural-language questions like:
• 'Show me the steps for escalation under our 2024 client policy.'
• 'Where is Control 3.2 referenced across our documents?'
• 'Summarize the changes to our payment plan procedure.'
It securely ingests and indexes TCL documents (policies, procedures, attachments, memos) and returns cited, audit-ready answers.
Why This Matters
Compliance teams manage thousands of changing documents. Finding the right clause or policy manually is slow and risky.
With the TCL AI Companion you get:
• Faster answers — semantic + keyword search in one place
• Better oversight — answers tied to actual documents
• Lower risk — read-only architecture
• Audit support — answers cite source content
How It Works (Architecture)
TCL Core (Azure): manages controls, policies & procedures, client work standards, internal documents, change management, tasks, subcontractors, and training.
AI Companion (AWS): creates a secure, read-only mirror of TCL documents and runs RAG-based semantic search.
Flow:
1. TCL documents securely ingested.
2. Indexed across PostgreSQL / S3 / vector store (Pinecone).
3. User asks natural-language question.
4. AI Companion retrieves and answers with citations.
5. User sees answer + source references.
Production stays in Azure. AI reasoning runs in AWS.
