About Regsoft

Regsoft seeks to simplify and redefine the nature of regulation, using 21st century thinking to solve 21st century problems.

Regsoft was founded in 2021 and delivers solutions to all elements of the regulation ecosystem, by using common logic and data schema to enable easy mapping across different legislation. We aim to transform the experience of regulation in Australia to meet the expectations of a modern digital economy. We work closely with regulators and private organisations to bridge the digital divide for Regtech development.

We are based in Canberra, Australia.

Our approach to transformation leverages platform business models, built on low-cost and simple technologies.

The needs for agricultural producers and food-based supply chains to span borders easily, while ensuring appropriate regulation is a niche problem, which opens access to regulators and license holders across Australia.

We view this challenge as falling within our overall approach to transform the experience of regulation in Australia and providing immediate measurable benefits to producers and regulators. While each jurisdiction has localised approaches, a non-centralised solution is feasible, and, in our view, a core element of a sustainable platform business model, such as the one in place for Regsoft.
