Compliance & RegTech Product Design Services

Design the software where evidence is collected, documents move through review, and every approval leaves a trail — for the people doing the checks and the people who sign them off.

  • Field and office

Answers you'll have before development

  • Who reviews what, and in which order?

Where it stops

ERP & Internal Tools

Day-to-day operations: orders, stock and tasks.

Compliance & RegTech Product Design

Evidence, review and sign-off, with a record that holds.

Not included

  • Certification or audit outcomes
  • Legal or regulatory advice

From the first piece of evidence to the signed record

The submitter's, the reviewer's and the auditor's view of the same work.

Discuss your product
  • A small ceramic staircase with a steel handrail, a white pawn on each of the lower steps and a graphite pawn on the top one.

    Role and approval model

    Who submits, who reviews, who signs off, and what each can see or change.

  • A ceramic tablet on a steel stand carved with a checklist, a ceramic camera and a document with a graphite clip beside it.

    Evidence capture flow

    Checklists, photos, documents and notes, collected on site or at a desk.

  • A ceramic in-tray of upright folder cards on steel dividers, one card pulled up with a graphite tab.

    Review queue

    Pending items, findings, returns for rework and sign-off, in the order they matter.

  • A ceramic status board of square tiles on a steel stand, one tile graphite, a spiral-bound ceramic ledger in front.

    Dashboard and audit trail

    Status across sites and teams, and a history of who did what, and when.

You receive

  • Flows for every role
  • A state, permission and audit matrix
  • UI and a clickable prototype

Designed for the auditor who arrives a year later.

RegTech UX design serves two moments: the person doing the check today, and the person reading the record long after. Every screen is drawn for both.

Every screen is designed for

  • Evidence missing
  • Submitted, waiting for review
  • Returned for rework
  • Finding raised
  • Approval overdue
  • Reviewers disagree
  • Document superseded
  • No signal on site
  • Locked after sign-off

When compliance software design is the right frame

It fits when work only counts once it is proven, reviewed and on record.

  • Work must be proven

    Checks, reviews and approvals only count when the evidence is attached.

  • Several people sign off

    Submitters, reviewers and approvers each see and do different things.

  • Records outlive the work

    Someone will read the history months later, often during an audit.

  • Specialists own the rules

    Your compliance, legal or quality experts define what the product enforces.

Let's design the trail before the audit asks for it

Tell us what gets checked, who signs it off and who reads the record later. We will come back with a useful scope and a realistic next step.

Scope, access and who does what

Compliance work starts through the service that fits your stage, and its proposal sets the terms.

Scope
Per service fixed or phased, set in the proposal
Timeline
Agreed after scope, access and dependencies
  1. You provide

    The product
    Access to the live product or staging, with a test account for each role.
    The rules
    The standards, checklists and approval rules, as your specialists set them.
    Evidence
    Where reviews stall, what auditors asked for last time, and support themes.
    Engineering
    The team, document storage and the systems records come from or go to.
  2. Who does what

    ANODA
    Maps the roles and the path from evidence to sign-off, designs each flow, state and screen, and records what engineering needs to build it.
    Your team
    Supplies the rules and the experts behind them, reviews each step, and builds and releases the product. Compliance decisions and certification stay with you.
  3. Boundaries

    Outside compliance software design
    Development, integrations, writing the rules or checklists themselves, and legal, regulatory or certification advice.
    After the design
    Your team or partner builds and integrates the product. Implementation reviews are scoped separately when needed.

In the client's words

ANODA helped bring the inspection workflows into a consistent interface direction. We appreciated the attention to information hierarchy and multilingual layouts, giving us concrete designs to review across the product’s different tasks.

    Compliance & RegTech Design: common questions

    We need compliance software design from a team that knows audits. What should we check before hiring?

    A team that has designed the path from evidence to sign-off and can show its unglamorous states: an item returned for rework, an overdue approval, a superseded document, a record locked after sign-off. Ask how they worked with the client's domain experts, and which rules they had to design around rather than change. Be wary of any design team that says it will make you compliant: the rules and the certification are yours.

    What would a compliance or RegTech project cover for us, and what drives its size?

    A role and approval model, the evidence capture flow, the review queue, the dashboard and audit trail, every state in between, a prototype and the UI. The work grows with the roles and review steps, the platforms, evidence captured in the field and rules that are still settling, and it differs for a new product and a live one. No package price is set: your first service scopes the work in its own proposal, and the timeline is agreed when scope, access and the people who own the rules are in place.

    Which roles and workflows does compliance software design cover?

    Inspectors and field staff, the people who submit evidence, reviewers and approvers, compliance managers, external auditors with read-only access, and admins. The workflows are planning checks, collecting evidence, submitting, reviewing, returning for rework, raising findings and corrective actions, approving, escalating, reporting and exporting the record for an audit. External auditors usually get their own read-only view, so they can follow a record from evidence to sign-off without seeing work still in progress.

    Whether our compliance tool is new, slow or dated, which service fits?

    UI/UX & Product Design for a new product; a UX Audit when a live tool is slow or error-prone; UI Redesign when the flows hold and the interface has aged. Web App Design covers review queues and records, Mobile App Design capture on site, and Dashboard Design the status view. Day-to-day operations belong to ERP & Internal Tools, and large multi-department estates to Enterprise UX.

    How do you handle document states, permissions and audit trails?

    With the flows, not after them. Every document shows its state and version, and every change records who made it and when. A permission matrix sets out who can submit, review, approve or only read, including the separation of duties your rules require. Records lock after sign-off, evidence captured without a signal is queued until it syncs, and exports give an auditor the history without a login. Compliance dashboard design comes last, built on those states, so the numbers mean the same thing everywhere.

    What do you need from our compliance specialists and engineers?

    A test account for each role on the product or staging; the standards, checklists and approval rules as your specialists set them; a domain expert on hand for questions; a product owner who decides; and a way to reach engineering. What an auditor asked for last time is often the best brief we get. If rules differ by country, site or client, bring an example of each: the differences shape the structure more than any single screen.

    Which compliance and review products have you designed?

    Qarma, a quality and compliance product: an app for inspectors on the factory floor and a web platform for planning, reports and corrective actions. Ark Mortgage, a borrower portal where every document and signature a loan asks for is a named task with its own status. Each case shows how a check becomes a record: who submits it, who reviews it and what stays on file afterwards.

    Can you redesign the compliance tool our reviewers rely on, and fit it to the systems around it?

    Yes. Qarma's design grew release by release through 2021 and 2022. We design in your files and system, with your compliance specialists checking each rule as it lands on screen, and hand over everything we make.
