Summary, possible practice impact and the original public source are presented together.
One team live now
Start with one AI team doing one real job.
Regulatory Watch monitors public regulatory change, assesses what may matter to an Australian advice practice and turns the useful material into a focused briefing.
Regulatory Watch Illustrative briefing
FIRM BRIEFING
Ready to review What changed, and why it may matter
Consultation worth tracking
The briefing separates an item to watch from something that may require a nearer-term response.
Supporting market context
Useful background is kept distinct from material regulatory change.

Capabilities are labelled by their actual availability.
Regulatory Watch
A defined workflow, with one clear outcome.
One coordinated team handles three parts of the job. Each part contributes to the same practical output for the adviser or principal.
Monitor public sources
Follow relevant releases and consultations from regulatory and government sources.
Assess potential relevance
Separate higher-signal change from background noise and keep the source visible.
Prepare the briefing
Turn selected material into a readable summary for a person to review and act on.
One outcome, clearly owned
These are coordinated steps inside one live Regulatory Watch team, not separate products or a claim that autonomous agents are constantly acting on your firm.
What comes next
Earn the right to add the next team.
Sombra will add specialist teams when their job, input and output are concrete. The next team under consideration is Competitor Analysis.
Planned
No launch date or package allocation has been announced.
Planned
Competitor Analysis A clearer view of how the local advice market is moving.
The planned team would organise public competitor and market signals into a practice-relevant view. Scope, timing and availability are still being defined.
One Sombra
External change and client work belong in the same operating picture.
Regulatory Watch helps a practice understand change outside the firm. The connected Sombra platform helps advisers carry client conversations into context, priorities and follow-through.

Straight answers
What is live, what it does and where people stay in control.
How many Sombra AI teams are live today?
One. Regulatory Watch is the live team today. Competitor Analysis is planned and is not presented as an available capability.
What does “live” mean?
Live means the team is available as a working Sombra capability. It does not mean an unexplained number of agents are constantly acting on your firm. The Regulatory Watch team performs a defined monitoring and briefing workflow.
Does Regulatory Watch need client conversation data?
No. Regulatory Watch works from public regulatory sources. Firm context can help make its output more relevant, but it does not need client meeting recordings to do its core job.
Does the briefing replace compliance judgement?
No. The team helps advisers and principals find and understand potentially relevant change. A person still decides what applies to the firm and what action is required.
