Upload a document and policy via webhook to get an AI compliance report with alignment summaries, gaps, citations, and confidence scores.

What it does

Upload your document and policy via webhook to instantly receive a compliance report that highlights alignment, identifies gaps, cites supporting evidence, and provides confidence scores. This process uses AI to evaluate your content against specific rules without manual review.

Step by step

  1. Configure the HTTP webhook endpoint to accept multipart/form-data for document uploads.
  2. Set up the Ollama model connection with a fixed embedding dimension compatible with Qdrant.
  3. Define the JSON schema for the structured compliance report output in the parser.

Where the LLM does the work

  • Generate the prompt template that instructs the AI agent to identify specific policy gaps and cite evidence from the document text.
  • Design the system instructions to ensure the confidence score reflects the clarity of the alignment between the document and the policy.
  • Create few-shot examples for the structured output parser to handle edge cases like ambiguous language or missing sections.

Watch out for

Large documents may exceed context windows so you must implement a chunking strategy before embedding.
Qdrant distance metrics can cause false positives if not tuned to your specific embedding model so verify cosine similarity thresholds with sample data.
Policy text might contain jargon that the generic model misinterprets so include a glossary injection step in the prompt context.

You are helping me build the following AI agent workflow.

## Goal
Document Compliance Validation: Upload a document and policy via webhook to get an AI compliance report with alignment summaries, gaps, citations, and confidence scores.

## Specification
- What it does: Upload your document and policy via webhook to instantly receive a compliance report that highlights alignment, identifies gaps, cites supporting evidence, and provides confidence scores. This process uses AI to evaluate your content against specific rules without manual review.
- Trigger: Triggered by an event (Manual · on document upload and procedure submission)
- Autonomy: You stay in control
- Expected setup effort: a few focused days
- Tools/services involved:
  - HTTP Request: Triggering workflow via webhooks for uploads and submissions
  - Qdrant Vector Store: Storing document vector embeddings
  - Ollama Chat Model: Running the AI agent for compliance analysis
  - LangChain Code: Processing text and structuring output

## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation
1. Large documents may exceed context windows so you must implement a chunking strategy before embedding.
2. Qdrant distance metrics can cause false positives if not tuned to your specific embedding model so verify cosine similarity thresholds with sample data.
3. Policy text might contain jargon that the generic model misinterprets so include a glossary injection step in the prompt context.

## Reference implementation
https://n8n.io/workflows/7662 (workflow template)
Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it;
if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools.

## Process requirements
1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and
   what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume.
2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack.
3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each.
4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data.
5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use a different Vector DB than Qdrant?

Yes. Qdrant is only the example vector db in this recipe. The same flow works with Pinecone. Swap the vector db connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.

Want this running in your business?

This is what I do. I design and build AI agents like this one, and keep them running. If you want it set up for your team instead of doing it yourself, get in touch.
