NEW YORK, June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Regulatory Intelligence Compliance Solutions Inc. ("RICS"), a leading SaaS provider of SEC/FINRA compliance software platforms, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") has granted a utility patent for its proprietary Artificial Intelligence-powered compliance audit technology, Global Artificial Intelligence Auditor™ ("GAIA").

GAIA™ represents a groundbreaking advancement in compliance auditing, enabling companies across all industries to leverage technology to meet regulatory requirements with greater efficiency and lower costs. The patent covers any AI managed review, exam, assessment or audit that can be based on external legal or regulatory requirements, internal rules or policies, and/or industry-specific standards and frameworks.

Key Capabilities of GAIA™ Include:

• Fully Automated AI Auditing – Compliance audits are conducted from end-to-end with or without human intervention, freeing up valuable resources.
• Advanced AI Decision-Making – Goes beyond traditional logic-based algorithms by integrating data analysis, human reasoning, decision-making, and responsive interactions.
• Proactive Compliance Monitoring – Independently detects potential violations, tracks remediation efforts, and ensures corrective actions are completed.
• Cost and Time Savings – GAIA™ streamlines the audit process, allowing organizations to complete audits in less time and at a lower cost compared to traditional audit practices, .
• Cross-Industry Applications – GAIA™ can be leveraged and licensed by companies across any sector and industry to ensure compliance with external regulatory mandates, internal governance policies, and/or industry-specific standards while improving operational efficiency.

"At RICS, we are committed to leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine compliance auditing by making it faster, more cost-effective, and less resource-intensive," said Donna Sardanopoli, President and CEO of RICS. "Our patent grant for this revolutionary technology solidifies our leadership in AI-driven compliance solutions, offering businesses a scalable, efficient, and intelligent approach to regulatory adherence. RICS is aggressively seeking further and expanded protection through additional filings and looks forward to sharing the results as they become available."

Paula Bosco, COO, Senior Advisor and Board Director at RICS, emphasized the company's vision for broad multi-industry adoption of GAIA™: "RICS is the first and only organization to develop and license technology in which AI itself performs a comprehensive audit, setting the industry benchmark as the original and exclusive provider of AI-driven audit execution solutions. Our goal is to provide companies across multiple industries with a transformative audit technology that not only ensures regulatory compliance, but also maximizes efficiency, reduces costs, and creates a sustainable competitive advantage by supporting employees to focus on core competencies, not repetitive, mundane tasks."
