How it works

To generate a comparison, navigate to the desired "base" version of the legislation on eur-lex.europa.eu, find the desired comparison version from the list of consolidated versions on the left, right click to open the context menu, and select "Compare with current legislation".

Make EU regulatory change less painful

David Wormley has helped many organisations to design, implement, operationalise, update and improve policies, procedures and controls in response to changes in EU regulation, including:
  • MiFID
  • AIFMD
  • AMLD/AMLR
  • GDPR
  • PSD2

He has used this experience to build some extra workflows on top of this tool to feed its structured diffs directly into LLMs, to create context-aware and prioritised change management task lists covering policies, systems and controls.
