AI agent for regulatory affairs specialists
Post-Market Complaint Reportability Agent
Every complaint assessed for reportability with a deadline before the clock runs out
What it does
Some product complaints must be reported to regulators within strict timelines, such as 30 days for many device malfunctions and less for serious injuries. Missing a deadline is a serious finding. This agent reads each new complaint, extracts the event details and checks for death, serious injury or a malfunction that could cause harm. It applies the reporting rules for each market where the product is sold. If facts needed for the decision are missing, it asks the complaint handler and waits, then checks again. Deadlines count from the date the company became aware. It drafts the report fields and searches past reports for similar events. Death or serious injury is escalated the same day. A specialist decides whether to report and submits it. Edge case: similar earlier events are linked so trend reporting can be considered.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
