What is product compliance for AI-generated catalog content?

Validating every product attribute (description, claim, label, ingredient, dosage, comparative claim) against applicable per-vertical regulations (FDA, FTC, state-AG, FINRA, OSHA, Prop 65) at ingest, conflict-resolution, and emission time.

How is this different from Assent Compliance or Source Intelligence?

Enterprise product-compliance suites cover supply-chain compliance (chemical inventory, REACH, RoHS, conflict minerals) at industrial scale. This skill validates AI-content-output catalog attributes against operator-defined per-vertical rule libraries.

How is this different from PIM-bundled validation (Salsify, Akeneo)?

PIM-bundled modules validate against marketplace spec (Google Shopping required fields, Meta Catalog format). This skill validates against per-vertical regulatory schema (FDA structure-function, FTC substantiation, state-AG cannabis).

How is this different from Veeva Vault or Esko?

Per-vertical specialty tools are deeply verticalized but isolated from marketing operations. This skill composes per-vertical libraries with the canonical product graph and emits validated attributes to every AI content agent.

What per-vertical schemas does the skill validate against?

FDA structure-function (supplements + cosmetics), FTC claim substantiation (all verticals), state-AG cannabis restrictions, FINRA suitability (financial), OSHA chemical labeling, FCC RF compliance (electronics), California Prop 65, NY pricing display requirements, EU Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009 where applicable.

How does this compose with multi-source-catalog-ingest?

Validation runs at ingest time. Non-compliant attributes route to review queue before reaching the canonical graph.

How does this compose with catalog-change-event-emission?

Validation runs again at emit time. Cannabis-state-specific variants emit only to in-jurisdiction channels.

How does this compose with per-vertical-compliance-overlay?

Per-vertical-compliance-overlay enforces content-output compliance across every AI content-producing agent. This skill validates the underlying catalog data the content agents render. Same rule library; different enforcement layer.

Skill catalog

Product compliance + per-vertical catalog schema validation

Per-vertical catalog schema validation against FDA, FTC, state-AG, FINRA, OSHA, and Prop 65 rule libraries — at ingest, conflict-resolution, and emission time.

The problem

You sell supplements in California, cannabis in Massachusetts, beauty in Texas, and OTC pharma everywhere. FDA requires structure-function language for supplement claims. California state AG requires specific Prop 65 warnings. Massachusetts cannabis has its own dosage / efficacy language restrictions. FTC wants every claim substantiated.

Your Salsify license validates against Google Shopping spec — that catches typos and missing required fields but not "this supplement claim is FDA-actionable." Assent Compliance ($25,000-$200,000+/year — category leader), Source Intelligence ($25,000-$100,000+/year), 3E Company, Sphera, and Compliance & Risks cover supply-chain compliance (chemical inventory, REACH, RoHS, conflict minerals) at industrial scale. Veeva Vault ($25,000-$200,000+/year life sciences), Esko (packaging), and Reed Tech (FDA submissions) are deeply verticalized but isolated from marketing operations. Feedonomics, GoDataFeed, DataFeedWatch, and Channable validate marketplace formatting only. Your in-house VP-Regulatory at $120,000-$250,000/year reviews manually and is three weeks behind.

The gap is per-vertical catalog schema validation that loads operator-defined rule libraries (FDA structure-function, FTC substantiation, state-AG cannabis, FINRA suitability, OSHA chemical, Prop 65) and validates every catalog attribute at ingest, conflict-resolution, and emission time.

What success looks like

Per-vertical rule libraries (FDA structure-function, FTC claim substantiation, state-AG cannabis restrictions, FINRA suitability, OSHA chemical labeling, FCC RF compliance, California Prop 65, EU Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009) compose with per-vertical-compliance-overlay and validate every catalog attribute at three gates.

At ingest time, multi-source-catalog-ingest results get validated before reaching the canonical graph. Non-compliant attributes route to a borderline-routing-style review queue.

At conflict-resolution time, catalog-conflict-resolution decisions get re-validated. Resolution that picks a non-compliant source surfaces for review.

At emission time, catalog-change-event-emission validates against each target channel's compliance requirements. Cannabis-state-specific variants emit only to in-jurisdiction subscribers. Per-state Prop 65 warnings flow to California-bound product variants only.

Regulatory-change-monitoring keeps rule libraries current. Every validation decision ties to versioned-product-history for audit-defensible regulator-inquiry response. Assent Compliance and Veeva Vault remain useful for their respective deep-vertical operations; this skill covers the AI-content-output product-catalog validation layer.

How most operators solve this today

Six tiers of incumbent tools — none provide per-vertical catalog schema validation across FDA, FTC, state-AG, and FINRA rule libraries at every catalog-data gate.

Enterprise product-compliance suites (Assent Compliance, Source Intelligence, 3E Company, Sphera, Compliance & Risks)
$25,000-$200,000+/year
Built for supply-chain compliance (chemical inventory, REACH, RoHS, conflict minerals) at industrial scale. Light-touch on AI-content-output validation.
PIM-bundled compliance modules (Salsify, Productsup, Akeneo, inriver, Syndigo)
Bundled with PIM license
Validates against marketplace spec (Google Shopping required fields, Meta Catalog format). Per-vertical regulatory schema (FDA structure-function, FTC substantiation, state-AG cannabis, FINRA) requires custom configuration.
Per-vertical specialty compliance (Veeva Vault life sciences, Esko packaging, Reed Tech FDA, per-state cannabis vendors)
$20,000-$200,000+/year
Verticalized deeply but isolated from marketing operations. Does not validate AI-content-output product attributes against operator-defined rule libraries.
Marketplace-policy validation (Feedonomics, GoDataFeed, DataFeedWatch, Channable)
$39-$5,000+/month
Validates against marketplace formatting only (Google Merchant Center disapproval reasons, Meta Catalog errors). Not against operator-defined per-vertical compliance.
In-house regulatory FTE (VP-Regulatory / compliance counsel)
$120,000-$250,000/year salary
Single reviewer bottleneck. Manual review of product attributes against applicable regulations. Falls behind past 1,000 SKUs or 3+ regulated verticals.
DIY (Excel checklists + manual brand-manager review + occasional outside counsel review)
Free
Falls apart past 1,000 SKUs or 3+ regulated verticals. No audit trail; no programmatic enforcement.

What changes when this is an agent skill

The Completions catalog-per-vertical-schema-validation skill loads operator-defined per-vertical rule libraries — FDA structure-function for supplements + cosmetics, FTC claim substantiation, state-AG cannabis restrictions, FINRA suitability, OSHA chemical labeling, FCC RF compliance, California Prop 65, EU Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009.

Validation runs at three gates: ingest (before raw attributes reach the canonical graph), conflict-resolution (after catalog-conflict-resolution picks a winning source), and emission (before catalog-change-event-emission fires).

Per-jurisdiction validation gates per-state-specific variants: cannabis dosage claims emit only to in-jurisdiction subscribers; Prop 65 warnings flow to California-bound variants only; per-state-AG-specific language surfaces correctly.

Regulatory-change-monitoring keeps rule libraries current. Every validation decision ties to versioned-product-history. Assent Compliance and Veeva Vault remain useful for deep-vertical operations; this skill covers the AI-content-output product-catalog validation layer that none of the incumbents address.
