🛠️ The Playbook — AI Policy & Compliance Tracker

Mission Aggregate evolving AI policy rules from multiple jurisdictions, summarise differences by region, and alert your compliance team weekly.
Difficulty Advanced | Build time 70 min
ROI Legal & compliance teams save ≈ 8–10 h/week of manual research.

Step	Action
1	Trigger – Zapier Schedule → Every Monday, 06:00.
2	Web Scraper API – Pull updates from target sources (EU AI Act site, FTC AI guidance, OECD AI principles, Anthropic safety blog, etc.).
3	Claude 3.5 Sonnet – Prompt: “Compare new text to last week’s. Summarise changes in ≤150 words per source. Flag items impacting AI dev, deployment, or customer data.”
4	Formatter – Group summaries by region: `US`, `EU`, `APAC`, `Global`.
5	Google Docs API – Update `/Compliance/Weekly AI Policy Brief` doc.
6	Slack Push – Send digest to #compliance with top 3 flagged changes.
7	Fail-safe – If scrape fails, pull last cached copy and add “⚠ Manual Check Required” note.

Pro tip: Keep a separate “Impact Tracker” column in your brief showing which workflows or products each change could affect.
