A 130-year regulatory practice, on a 12-month feed.
Barnes & Thornburg’s regulatory and compliance practice replaced a roomful of manual monitoring with the RegAlytics data layer, and reallocated the analyst hours into client-facing advisory.
The challenge
The firm’s regulatory team was tracking more than 30 federal and state regulators by hand. Two associates spent the first two hours of every working day refreshing agency websites, copying notices into a shared spreadsheet, and triaging by sector. The cost was not the spreadsheet. The cost was the associate hours.
What changed
Barnes wired the RegAlytics REST API into a private alerts inbox. Sector and jurisdiction filters were configured to match the firm’s practice areas. A weekly digest is now drafted by a paralegal in under thirty minutes, with the AI summary doing the first pass and the team reviewing for client relevance.
The result
Two associates went from a weekly 16-hour monitoring overhead to under two hours of review time. The reclaimed hours go straight into billable client work. The Friday client digest, previously a Thursday-night scramble, ships before Wednesday lunch.
