Problem
Local reviewers faced large volumes of policies and inconsistent review standards. Limited staffing made competition risks difficult to identify promptly.

It combined a legal knowledge base with supervised models trained to identify competition risks. Users uploaded policy drafts and received flagged clauses with reference review opinions.

Takeaway
AI screening fed into an online joint-review process. Flagged clauses and reference opinions supported the officials responsible for review.
