We're the team behind Policy Compass. We built it because staying on top of UK energy regulation was eating days we didn't have - and we figure every regs team feels the same.
Why We Built Policy Compass
A single consultation can take half a day to review - and that's before the code modifications, licence changes and everything else stacking up behind it. Policy Compass does the reading, cross-referencing and filtering, so your team's time goes back to interpretation, advice, and the decisions that actually need their judgement.
When we entered the energy industry, we quickly discovered a firehose of regulatory updates pouring out of Ofgem, DESNZ, Elexon, and a dozen other bodies every single week. We needed to learn the landscape fast - and then stay on top of it. We had to understand what applied to us and what didn't.
So we built early automations to track it all. Knowing the direction of travel gave us an edge - we could see how the landscape was evolving and spot opportunities others might miss.
We don't have a regulatory team - we built automations instead. But most energy companies do have regs people - from suppliers to consultancies - and they're expected to cover an enormous amount of ground, multiplied across every body, every week.
Most regs people are brilliant at the judgement - what a change means, what to do about it. What eats their week is everything before that: finding it, reading it, working out if it even applies. That's the part Policy Compass takes off their plate.

The Team
Co-Founder & CEO
Joshua spent 10 years at THIS Workspace working directly with businesses before co-founding Meet George, a business energy switching platform. While building Meet George, he had to get up to speed on UK energy regulation fast - and discovered first-hand how hard it is to stay on top of the sheer volume of change.
He built early automations to track and filter regulatory developments, and quickly realised the problem was bigger than the switching platform alone - every energy business faces the same challenge. That's what led to Policy Compass as a separate product. Joshua leads product strategy and energy industry partnerships, working directly with design partners to make sure the platform solves real problems for regulatory professionals. We've written about how those design partners shaped what we built.
Co-Founder & CTO
Xiaoyi builds the technology behind Policy Compass. 15 years as a software engineer, MSc in Computer Science. He designed the system that reads regulatory documents, understands what they mean, and connects them to your business context.
