Regulatory Radar · For research offices
Regulatory Radar for a whole research office
One subscription, one card, and a seat for each named person who needs their own cited answers — about 2 CFR 200, an NSF letter of collaboration, or a funder rule.
$25 per seat per month, USD, 3 to 50 seats on one subscription and one invoice. Cancel any month.
Seats
What a seat is
A seat is a named person, not a login your office shares. That has consequences worth understanding before you count heads.
One person, one seat
Each seat is attached to an email address and to the CASRAI account belonging to it. The assistant’s daily allowance is counted per person, not pooled, so one colleague’s heavy week cannot exhaust anybody else’s. Every seat gets the full 150 questions a day and the full 10 source passages behind each answer — there is no reduced-tier seat.
Adding, removing and revoking seats
The person who paid owns the subscription. From their account page they invite a colleague by email, see who holds each seat, and revoke one; a revoked seat stops answering within a minute, not instantly, because entitlement is cached for sixty seconds. Revoking a seat frees it for someone else but does not change what you pay: the number of seats you pay for is changed separately, in the payment settings linked from the same account page, and the difference is prorated on the next invoice.
If you reduce the seat count
Nothing is deleted. The seats accepted earliest keep working and the most recent ones stop; the roster stays intact so you can still answer “who had access, and when”. Raising the count again restores them in the same order.
What it does
Claim by claim, with the qualification attached
Each row is what the product does and, in the same breath, what that claim does not cover.
Ask CASRAI answers research-administration questions and cites its sources.
Answers draw on CASRAI's guides and dictionary plus the federal and funder documents we index: Federal Register, Grants.gov, Regulations.gov and UKRI. The 10 best-matching passages are put in front of a language model and the answer carries links to the ones it used. It is not trained or fine-tuned on anything. When the sources do not cover a question it either says so or answers from a live web search, labelled as such and linked to the pages it used. It can still be wrong; the citations are there so you can tell when it is.
150 questions a day, for each seat.
A per-person allowance rather than a pool the office shares. It resets daily. It is a real ceiling, stated here rather than discovered.
A dashboard of new items from the sources we index.
Federal Register, Grants.gov, Regulations.gov and UKRI, alongside CASRAI's own guides and dictionary. Filterable by source, and every item links straight out to the original notice.
Each seat can ask from Claude Code or Cursor with its own API key.
Each seat can connect the assistant to its own tools on the same daily allowance — scripting does not buy more of it. Setup and examples →
Before you evaluate it
What we are not selling you
You would find all of this in week one anyway, and finding it after a purchase order is much worse than finding it now.
Email alerts are not available yet. Everything is on the dashboard.
No customer list, because there is almost nothing to list.
You will not find testimonials, customer logos, ratings or a “trusted by” count on the Regulatory Radar pages. Regulatory Radar is new and has one paying subscriber. Better to know that in the first minute than after a reference call.
It is an assistant, not an authority.
Answers cite their sources so you can check them, and you should. Nothing here is legal or regulatory advice, and no answer should be the last step before a submission. What it saves is the search, not the judgement.
Data handling
What is stored, for how long, and where it goes
Questions are stored; answer text is not kept indefinitely.
Questions are logged before the answer is generated. By default the question text is redacted after 400 days and the answer text is dropped after 90. Question text and any feedback comment pass through a personal-data scrubber at the last point before a durable write.
IP addresses are never stored raw.
They arrive at the logging boundary already pseudonymised with a key that rotates at midnight UTC, and a raw address is rejected rather than written. The pseudonym itself is dropped after 30 days by default.
The model provider is told not to keep anything.
Every request to the model carries a no-data-collection flag with no configuration switch to turn it off. Your questions are not training data for us or for anybody downstream.
Erasure is a supported operation.
A data-subject erasure request deletes the rows rather than redacting them, with a maintained tool for it rather than an ad-hoc query. Ask us and we will run it. If your DPO needs something more formal than this section, say so in the form below.
The organisation
Who you would actually be buying from
CASRAI — Consortia Advancing Standards in Research Administration Information — is not itself a separately incorporated legal entity. It is operated as a charitable programme of The Health Initiative, a registered U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit, under a fiscal-sponsorship arrangement. That sponsor holds funds, signs agreements and receives grants on the programme’s behalf, and is the organisation the charge comes from.
There is no head office and no postal address to put on a supplier form; the imprint sets out the rest, including the governing law. If your supplier-onboarding process needs a counterparty with its own company number, that counterparty is the fiscal sponsor and not CASRAI — tell us in week one rather than week six.
Money
How payment works, and what it cannot do
Read the second half of this section before you start an internal approval.
Payment is by card, in the card processor’s secure form, which opens on this page headed “CASRAI Regulatory Radar” — your card details go to the processor and never pass through casrai.org. The form may also show The Health Initiative’s logo, and the line on the card statement may read “LAC HEALTH” or “CASRAI RADAR”; both are descriptors on that same organisation’s payment account. The subscription is monthly, in USD, at $25 per seat per month. No minimum term, no automatic escalation and no cancellation fee: the person who bought it cancels from their account page and access runs to the end of the month already paid for. Every payment produces an itemised invoice, emailed to the payer, with the name and billing address entered at checkout. There are no partial refunds.
What we cannot do today
- Purchase orders. We cannot accept a PO, raise an invoice against one, or work to net-30 terms.
- Institutional invoicing on terms. The invoice follows the payment; it is a receipt, not a request for payment your finance office can process first.
- Tax identifiers. No sales tax or VAT is added, and we cannot record an institutional tax ID.
- Non-USD pricing. A card issued outside the United States applies its own exchange rate, so a reimbursement claim will not read exactly $25 per seat.
In practice that means a departmental card, or a named person paying and reclaiming. If neither works at your institution, say so in the form.
Buying for one person instead? The single subscription is $29 a month on the main Regulatory Radar page.
Two ways to do this
Buy the seats, or talk to us first
A three-person office should not have to wait for a call, and a procurement process should not be handed a card form.
Buy seats now
Card payment, in about a minute
For an office that can put this on a departmental card today. Choose the number of seats and pay; nobody has to talk to us first. Once the payment lands you own the subscription and invite colleagues to their seats from your account page.

Cancel anytime from your account page — no contract, no minimum term, no cancellation fee. Access runs to the end of the month you paid for. Seats can be changed on the payment page before you pay, and afterwards in the billing portal — the difference is prorated.
The form asks for your email, name and billing address; the name and address go on the itemised invoice emailed to you, which is what most offices need for an expense claim. Institution is optional. Your card details go straight to the payment processor inside the form and never pass through casrai.org.

Talk to us
Request a call
A real conversation with somebody who can answer for the product, not a demo booking that lands you in a sales sequence. Nothing here signs you up to anything and nothing here takes a payment.
Or skip the form: email [email protected] with as much or as little as you like. It reaches the same people and depends on nothing on this page working.
