Seiken.ai

Deconstructing policy,provision by provision.

For the experts who

and follow it

PolicyGPS is the product house of Kessler Healthcare Consulting, LLC. Its first product, Seiken.ai, reads statute, regulation, and sub-regulatory guidance together and reports what it finds with the source provision attached.

What PolicyGPS is for

Policy does not live in one document.

A single requirement is created by statute, operationalized by regulation, and implemented through sub-regulatory guidance. The three do not always agree, and the people who have to comply are the ones who find out. PolicyGPS builds super intelligence (SI) products that read those instruments together rather than one at a time, under governance, with a person authorizing every step and the source provision attached to every finding.

Questions a single reader cannot reliably answer.

Compare similar documents

Seven documents govern the same procedure in different parts of the country. Seiken.ai lines them up provision by provision and shows where the same requirement is stated differently. Here, one of seven sets a numeric vision threshold and six set none.

One of seven documents sets a numeric visual acuity threshold. The other six set none.

DOCUMENT 1 OF 7

The patient has a best corrected visual acuity of 20/50 or worse at distant or near

DOCUMENTS 2 TO 7

No numeric threshold. Three say a Snellen measurement alone cannot rule surgery in or out; three say the evaluation should not rest on it alone.

Compare across levels of government

Seiken.ai is not limited to health care. Any body of law, regulation, or guidance can be compared. Here a state employment law and a county code govern the same benefit, and an employer subject to both must meet whichever is higher on each point.

DivergenceEmployment lawState and countyExportWordHTMLExcel.md

An employer with 12 employees owes paid leave for work in the county under the county code, but only unpaid leave under state law.

Requirement	State law	County code
Paid leave required at	15 or more employees	5 or more employees	Differs
Accrual rate	1 hour per 30 worked	1 hour per 30 worked	Same
Hours an employee may earn each year	40	56	Differs
Hours an employee may use each year	64	80	Differs

Each figure is the minimum the law requires; an employer may give more.

Trace cascading reliance

A requirement often rests on a chain: a statute, a regulation that implements it, and agency practice built on top. Seiken.ai follows the chain link by link and shows where a single sentence of regulation carries far more than it says.
