How does Foresight decide which regulatory updates are relevant?

Short answer

Foresight decides relevance by comparing source-backed regulatory and literature signals with a customer's operating footprint: products, substances, materials, markets, suppliers, operations, and team priorities. The goal is to show why an update may matter, not simply that it exists.

The Customer Footprint

Foresight works from context such as product categories, substances, materials, markets, suppliers, team responsibilities, and stated priorities.

That context helps separate a broadly interesting regulatory update from one that could affect a specific product, market, or workflow.

Review Improves the Watch

When teams review alerts, their feedback can help refine routing and relevance over time.

The system should make it easy to say why an alert was useful, irrelevant, already known, or uncertain.

Frequently asked questions

Does Foresight need perfect product data to start?

No. Foresight can start from available context and improve as product, substance, supplier, market, and feedback data improves.

Can teams override relevance decisions?

Yes. Human review and feedback are important parts of a trustworthy regulatory workflow.
