It takes a product—identified by EAN barcode, ingredient list, spec sheet, or product page—and systematically checks it against the regulatory requirements of each target market. The output is a structured compliance report with a pass/fail result per check, severity ratings, and specific remediation guidance for every issue found. This is a default skill—ready to use immediately without any setup. *** ## What It Can Do ### Multi-Market Regulatory Checks * Verify compliance across EU (Regulation 1169/2011), US FDA (21 CFR 101), UK, Switzerland, Canada, Australia/NZ, and GCC markets in a single run * Automatically infer the likely target markets from label language, certifications, and country of manufacture when not specified ### Mandatory Label Field Verification * Check that all legally required fields are present: product name, ingredient list, net quantity, date marking, manufacturer details, country of origin, and nutrition declaration * Verify language requirements per market (EU country-of-sale languages, bilingual EN/FR in Canada, Arabic in GCC) ### Allergen Declaration Validation * Cross-reference declared allergens against market-specific lists (EU Big 14, US Big 9, Canada, Australia/NZ) * Detect hidden allergens in derivative ingredients (e.g., casein indicating milk, lecithin potentially indicating soy) * Check allergen formatting requirements—typographic distinction in EU ingredient lists, "Contains:" statement for US ### Ingredient and Additive Compliance * Check each ingredient against permitted additive lists and maximum usage levels per market * Flag banned ingredients (e.g., titanium dioxide E171 in the EU, certain azo dyes requiring warning labels) * Check GMO labeling requirements and organic certification compliance ### Nutrition Label Verification * Confirm all mandatory nutrition fields are present for each target market * Verify rounding rules and formatting requirements (per 100g/ml for EU, per serving for US) ### Health and Nutrition Claim Validation * Check that each claim on the label appears in the authorized list for the target market * Verify the product's nutritional composition meets the quantitative conditions for each claim * Flag unauthorized wording or claims that require disclaimers ### Batch Portfolio Mode * Accept a CSV of multiple products and run compliance checks across all of them in a single Run * Produce an aggregated portfolio compliance report alongside individual product reports *** ## When to Use It Use the Regulatory & Label Compliance Checker skill when your agent needs to: * **Verify new product labels before launch**: Check for compliance issues before committing to print and production * **Assess a new market entry**: Identify what needs to change before a product can be sold in a new country * **Review supplier spec sheets**: Check incoming product specifications against your market requirements * **Audit a product portfolio**: Validate multiple SKUs for regulatory compliance in a single run * **Prepare for regulatory changes**: Re-check products after a rule update (new allergen added, additive banned, nutrition format change) *** ## Example Tasks "Check this product's EU label compliance and flag any issues before we go to print" "We're launching this product in the US—what needs to change on the label to meet FDA requirements?" "Review the attached spec sheet against EU and UK regulations and give me a compliance report" "Run compliance checks on all 40 products in this CSV and flag any critical issues" "Does this ingredient list have any allergen declaration issues for the Canadian market?" *** ## How to Use Open the agent you want to configure. In the agent settings, find the Skills section. Select the Regulatory & Label Compliance Checker skill. In your agent's AOP, specify the target markets and what data sources are available (EAN barcodes, spec sheet PDFs, product page URLs, or manual ingredient lists). Connect document processing, web browsing, and messaging connections as needed for the data sources and output delivery you require. The skill asks for target markets and product data at the start of each run, then works through all regulatory checks automatically. *** ## Works Well With Extract ingredient lists and fields from spec sheet PDFs. Read product pages and verify current regulatory status online. Track compliance status across a product portfolio. Track compliance status across a product portfolio. Distribute compliance reports to regulatory or labeling teams. Distribute compliance reports to regulatory or labeling teams. *** ## Things to Know * This is a default skill available to all teams * At minimum, an ingredient list and a target market are required before compliance checks can run—the skill requests any missing data via human-in-the-loop before proceeding * Compliance findings are rated Critical, High, Medium, or Low severity so you can prioritize remediation effort * Compliance reports require human approval before the skill shares them externally * Regulatory rules change over time—the skill uses web search to verify current status for ingredients where regulations may have been updated recently * Pairs well with Google Sheets or Excel for tracking compliance status across a product portfolio, and with email or messaging connections for distributing reports to regulatory or labeling teams
