Real-time application status
You've got a great business idea, but the regulatory hurdles feel insurmountable. You're not alone.
Connect, forms, thresholds, fee blocks, permissions — it's a maze of jargon and bureaucracy that feels designed to confuse newcomers.
AML policy? Complaints procedure? Vulnerable customers policy? The list seems endless and you're not sure what's actually required for your permissions.
The FCA receives thousands of applications. One missing document or poorly worded policy could mean months of delays — or outright rejection.
The conventional route to authorisation leans heavily on consultant time for drafting, gap analysis and policy work. For a startup pre-revenue, that's a budget line many can't justify before they've even started trading.
Identifying key individuals, preparing F&P assessments, mapping responsibilities — SM&CR requirements add another layer of complexity to your application.
The FCA wants to see how you'll maintain compliance after authorisation. Without a monitoring programme, your application looks incomplete.
RegTechPRO gives you the same structure, templates, and tools that established firms use — at a fraction of the cost of hiring consultants.
50+ FCA-aligned policy templates ready to customise. AML, complaints, vulnerable customers, data protection, business continuity — all auto-assigned.
Visual progress through your authorisation journey. Track milestones, manage document checklists, and see exactly where you stand.
Ask compliance questions in plain English. Anna understands your permissions and gives contextual guidance on FCA requirements.

Hear from the firms that have transformed their compliance with RegTechPRO
We replaced three separate spreadsheets and a shared inbox with RegTechPRO. Our monitoring plan is now fully structured, nothing falls through the cracks, and I can pull a board report in under a minute. It paid for itself within the first quarter.
The MI Dashboard changed how I talk to the board. I used to spend days pulling data together — now I walk in with a real-time compliance health score and a clear action log. Anna AI is genuinely useful too, our team asks it regulatory questions before they come to me.
CONC compliance was our biggest headache. RegTechPRO gave us pre-built templates for every requirement and a monitoring plan that actually gets used. Policy Studio saved us weeks — we had all our policies drafted, approved and tracked within the first month.
We oversee 30+ ARs and before RegTechPRO it was chaos — chasing updates by email, no visibility on who was overdue. Now every AR has their own login, I can see compliance status across the network instantly, and onboarding a new AR takes days instead of weeks.
As a compliance consultancy, we needed something our clients could actually use themselves. RegTechPRO lets us manage 40+ firms from one dashboard while giving each client their own portal. We've tripled our client base without adding headcount. It's the backbone of our business now.
We're a small IFA firm — just four advisers. I was worried it would be too complex but it's genuinely straightforward. The compliance assessment templates walk you through everything step by step. We went from dreading our annual review to having it done in an afternoon.
