AccuFind Launches PolicyDNA Platform for Government Policy Intelligence

Government agencies spend thousands of hours manually reviewing policies for compliance, coherence, and legislative alignment. AccuFind's new PolicyDNA platform automates this process with AI-powered analysis that evaluates policies across five critical dimensions and maps legislative changes automatically.

The Problem

Policy teams face significant challenges:

• Policy quality assessment is subjective and inconsistent
• Legislative changes require manual policy review across hundreds of policies and thousands of pages
• No systematic way to identify compliance gaps before they become problems
• Senior leadership lacks quantifiable metrics for policy quality

Three Core Capabilities

1. PolicyDNA Analysis

Multi-dimensional policy evaluation system that scores policies across five critical dimensions:

• Coherence – Internal logic and consistency
• Alignment – Legislative compliance
• Accessibility – Clarity and usability
• Sufficiency – Completeness of coverage
• Actionability – Implementation clarity

Each dimension receives a 0-100 score with detailed rationale and specific recommendations. Reports include knowledge graphs visualising policy structure, dependencies, and stakeholder responsibilities.

2. Legislative Change Intelligence

When legislation changes—new Acts, amendments, renumbering—the platform:

• Maps every section between old and new versions
• Identifies removed, new, and substantially changed provisions
• Analyses all organisational policies to find affected references
• Prioritises updates (critical → high → medium → low)
• Generates implementation timelines with risk assessments

Proven in real-world legislative transitions for Australian government agencies.

3. Knowledge Graph Extraction

Semantic extraction engine that discovers policy structure without templates:

• Extracts requirements, actors, actions, conditions, exceptions, timelines
• Maps relationships (dependencies, hierarchies, sequences)
• Generates professional visualisations (overview, actor networks, requirement flows)
• Identifies gaps, ambiguities, and undefined terms

Technical Approach

PolicyDNA uses advanced AI vision capabilities for document analysis, handling tables, formatting, and complex layouts without relying on traditional text extraction methods.

All processing occurs within Australian-hosted infrastructure, maintaining complete data sovereignty.

Real-World Application

An Australian government agency used the Legislative Change Intelligence capability to manage a major legislative transition. The platform mapped every section change across hundreds of pages, analysed policy impacts across their entire policy framework, and created a prioritised update plan.

The system automatically flagged critical updates (removed provisions that policies still reference), high-priority changes (substantial modifications requiring immediate attention), and medium/low updates that could be phased in over time.

Use Cases

PolicyDNA is built for high-stakes policy environments:

• Legislative Transition Planning – Manage Act changes with comprehensive impact assessment
• Policy Quality Assurance – Assess policies before publication with quantifiable metrics
• Compliance Audit Preparation – Identify gaps and conflicts before external audits
• Cross-Departmental Standardisation – Ensure consistency across organisational policy frameworks

What It's Not

This isn't policy drafting software. PolicyDNA analyses existing policies, identifies issues, and provides recommendations. Policy writing remains a human responsibility requiring subject matter expertise and organisational context.

Availability

AccuFind PolicyDNA is available for government agencies and organisations with complex policy frameworks. Initial implementations focus on child protection, law enforcement, and regulatory compliance sectors.
