What is a Regulatory Knowledge Graph?
At the core of Veritas AI lies our proprietary Regulatory Knowledge Graph - a sophisticated network of interconnected regulatory concepts that represents the complex world of AI compliance in a structured, machine-readable format. Unlike traditional databases that store information in tables and rows, a knowledge graph uses a graph structure with nodes (entities) and edges (relationships) to represent knowledge in a way that mirrors how humans understand the world.
Our Regulatory Knowledge Graph is specifically designed to capture the intricate relationships between:
- Regulatory Frameworks: EU AI Act, GDPR, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and other global AI governance frameworks
- Requirements: Specific compliance obligations derived from regulatory texts
- Controls: Measures and mechanisms that can satisfy multiple requirements
- Evidence Types: Documentation and artifacts that demonstrate compliance

Explore the Knowledge Graph ToolGraph RAG: Beyond Traditional Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Our knowledge graph implements an advanced form of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) that we call Graph RAG. While traditional RAG systems retrieve information from unstructured text to enhance AI responses, our Graph RAG leverages the rich structure of the knowledge graph to provide more accurate and contextual compliance information.
How Graph RAG Works:
- Query Transformation: Your compliance queries are transformed into graph traversal operations
- Structural Retrieval: Rather than simple keyword matching, we identify relevant regulatory nodes and their multi-hop relationships
- Contextual Understanding: The system extracts contextually relevant data by following connections through the graph
- Evidence-Based Response: Compliance guidance is generated with supporting evidence from actual regulatory texts

Comprehensive Coverage of Global AI Regulations
Our knowledge graph currently encompasses:
This comprehensive coverage allows us to identify overlapping requirements across different frameworks, helping organizations streamline their compliance efforts by implementing controls that satisfy multiple regulatory requirements simultaneously.
Key Benefits of the Knowledge Graph Approach
1. Requirement De-duplication
Our knowledge graph identifies similar or overlapping requirements across different regulatory frameworks. This allows organizations to implement a single control that satisfies multiple compliance requirements, significantly reducing redundant work.
For example, both the EU AI Act and ISO 42001 require documentation of AI system development processes, but with slightly different emphases. Our system identifies these overlaps and suggests unified documentation approaches.

For organizations operating across multiple jurisdictions, our knowledge graph provides a consolidated view of all applicable requirements. This enables a unified compliance strategy rather than a siloed approach to each regulatory framework.
3. Efficient Evidence Collection
By mapping requirements to specific types of evidence, our system helps organizations understand exactly what documentation they need to produce. This prevents both over-documentation (creating unnecessary artifacts) and under-documentation (missing critical evidence).
4. Future-Proofing Compliance
As new regulations emerge or existing ones evolve, we update the knowledge graph to reflect these changes. This allows our system to automatically identify the impact on your compliance status and recommend necessary adjustments.
How to Use the Knowledge Graph Tool
Our interactive Knowledge Graph tool allows you to explore the connections between different regulatory frameworks, requirements, and compliance controls. Here's how you can get the most out of it:
Select a Focus Framework
Choose a specific regulatory framework (e.g., EU AI Act, GDPR) to highlight its requirements and connections.
Filter by Requirement Category
Narrow down to specific types of requirements such as transparency, risk management, or data governance.
Explore Connections
Click on nodes to see related requirements, controls, and evidence types across different frameworks.
Search for Specific Requirements
Use the search function to quickly find requirements related to specific topics or concerns.
