# Regulatory Impact Analysis with AI

Before a regulation can take effect, most jurisdictions require some form of impact analysis. Federal agencies must comply with Executive Order 12866 (cost-benefit analysis), the Regulatory Flexibility Act (small business impact), and NEPA (environmental impact). States have parallel requirements. These analyses are time-consuming, often taking months to complete. AI can significantly accelerate the process.
