Brand Guidelines

The Policy Compass
brand kit

Everything you need to represent Policy Compass correctly. For press, partners, and anyone who needs our assets without a 45-minute brand workshop.

Naming

The logo reads as one word, but in writing it's always two.

In text: "Policy Compass" - two words, both capitalised

"We use Policy Compass to stay ahead of regulatory change."

"Policy Compass is a regulatory intelligence platform for UK energy professionals."

"Research it in Policy Compass."

Don't write it as:

PolicyCompass policycompass policy compass POLICY COMPASS Policy compass policy Compass

The logo wordmark uses "PolicyCompass" as a single unit - that's a design choice, not a spelling guide. In all written copy, headlines, articles, and references, it's always "Policy Compass" as two separate words.

Colours

A small, purposeful palette. Each colour has a job. Brand Orange is identity. Action Blue drives clicks. Everything else stays out of the way.

Tone of voice

We speak peer-to-peer with energy professionals who already know regulation. Expert, direct, trusted - we help them work faster and smarter, we don't explain the basics.

Assume expertise

Our audience are regulatory specialists. We don't teach them their own domain - we give them better tools to stay on top of it. Speak peer-to-peer, never patronise.

Intelligence, not compliance

Say "regulatory intelligence" not "compliance tool". We track, interpret, and contextualise - we don't score, certify, or tell anyone they are or aren't compliant.

Source-grounded and specific

Every claim cites its source. Be precise about what the platform does and doesn't do. "Contextualised to your business" not "personalised".

Confident, not overselling

We're building the definitive tool, not the cheapest trick. State what we can deliver right now - no hype, no hand-waving, no buzzwords.

Examples

We say

"Regulatory intelligence, contextualised to your business."

We don't say

"An AI solution that scores your compliance posture."

We say

"Every claim cites its source - exportable as an audit-ready PDF."

We don't say

"Trust our AI to handle compliance for you."

We say

"Tracked, flagged, and interpreted as the rules evolve."

We don't say

"Stay compliant, hassle-free, in minutes."

Words we never use

Short (49 words)

It continuously monitors regulators and industry code bodies, surfacing only the developments that affect your business and role. It then answers any question on the detail, cited to the authoritative source. Built by the team at Meet George.

Standard (127 words)

Policy Compass is a regulatory intelligence platform for UK energy professionals, including consultancies, suppliers, flexibility providers, and network operators.

At its heart is Radar: continuous monitoring across UK energy's regulators and industry code bodies - surfacing only the developments relevant to your business and your role, filtering out the noise. No more trawling through consultations, proposals, code modifications and licence changes by hand to find the handful that actually affect you.

When something needs a closer look, Research answers any question on the detail, contextualised to your business and your role, and cited to its source every time. Consultation deadlines are also tracked and reminders are sent before they catch you out.

Built by the team at Meet George, Policy Compass replaces days of manual monitoring.
