The Data Layer

A public window into
what we built.

Meridian is the foundation of the SureStep platform — the same regulatory data that trains Compass via RAG and powers Navigator's assessments. Browse the repository, search obligations, and see the data quality for yourself.

01

Browse the Repository

Open access to alerts, obligations, sources, and rulebooks. Search the full repository — no login required to explore the data.

02

Track What Applies

Mark obligations applicable to your business, get a curated feed of only the changes that touch you, and work a review queue.

03

Run It in Navigator

When you need AI change-assessment, policy & control management, campaigns, reporting, and GRC platform integration — step up to the full GRC platform.

Built on Trust

Source-faithful data.
Not AI-generated summaries.

Every alert in Meridian links back to the original source document, captured as published. Every obligation traces to the specific eCFR section. No hallucinations, no AI-generated interpretations — just the raw regulatory text, structured, tagged, and citable. The same data that powers Compass and Navigator.

📄

Original Source Snapshots

Every alert is captured as a PDF/HTML snapshot at the moment of publication. The record never rots when an agency moves a page.

🔗

Citation-Level Provenance

Every obligation traces to the specific section and paragraph in the eCFR or source regulation. No summaries, no interpretations.

Same Backend as Compass

This is the same data that trains Compass via RAG and powers Navigator's assessments. The data layer beneath the entire platform.

Always watching. Always tracking. 150+ regulatory bodies, monitored every day.

The eCFR Corpus

AI Enrichment

Tagged & Linked

Every alert is classified with ~100 regulatory tags across 9 domains, then linked to the obligations it affects — by citation match and by semantic similarity using pgvector embeddings.

The Original, Preserved

A headless-browser service captures the source PDF/HTML of each alert as it was published, stored and served on demand — so the record never rots when an agency moves a page.

questions.

What exactly is Meridian?

Meridian is a repository of regulatory intelligence — alerts from 150+ regulatory bodies across the US and Canada, the full eCFR obligation corpus for Titles 12 and 31, and AI-tagged classifications across 9 regulatory domains. It's the data layer beneath the entire SureStep platform.

What's the difference between Meridian and Navigator?

Meridian is the data layer — browse, search, and monitor regulatory changes. Navigator is the full GRC platform — AI-powered change assessment, policy and control management, campaign workflows, board-ready reporting, and GRC system integration. Meridian is the front door; Navigator is the operating room.

Which regulatory sources does Meridian cover?

13 US federal sources (FinCEN, OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, CFPB, SEC, CFTC, NCUA, FTC, FFIEC, DOJ, OFAC, and the Federal Register) and 4 Canadian federal sources (OSFI, FINTRAC, Bank of Canada, and the Department of Finance Canada). All sources are scraped daily with change tracking and diffs.

Can I access Meridian via API?

Yes. Meridian includes a public data API with OAuth 2.0 authentication and an MCP server for agent-ready access. Contact us for API access and integration details.
