Trace One, a global leader in product lifecycle management (PLM) and regulatory compliance software for process manufacturers and retailers, announced a major expansion of Trace One Copilot — its embedded AI capability first launched in 2025 — with three purpose-built AI assistants operating directly within Trace One Devex PLM and Regulatory Compliance platforms.
Regulatory managers, R&D formulators, and supply chain teams at food and beverage, cosmetics, and specialty chemicals companies spend hours searching legislation databases, re-keying supplier data, and switching between tools to validate formulations — slowing product development and increasing compliance risk.
Three Assistants, One Platform
Regulatory Affairs Assistant: Ask compliance questions in natural language and receive sourced answers in seconds — powered by Trace One’s proprietary regulatory intelligence covering 85+ countries, 400+ guidelines, and 2 million substance limits curated by 25+ specialists in 14 languages.
Product Developer Assistant: Describe cost constraints, nutritional targets, or functional properties and receive AI-driven recommendations for ingredients, formulas, and packaging with compliance impact analysis across markets.
Supply Chain Assistant: Extract data from raw material datasheets, SDS documents, and certificates directly into PLM fields — eliminating manual re-keying and accelerating supplier onboarding.
Each assistant operates on the manufacturer’s own product data within existing workflows. The platform supports configurable AI models — Trace One’s, the customer’s, or a combination — across public cloud, private cloud, and on-premise deployments. Initial capabilities are available now, with expanded features rolling out progressively.
