At LSPS Solutions, we understand that navigating the maze of state and federal regulations can be one of the biggest challenges for municipal leaders. From water quality and air compliance to infrastructure and building codes, city staff spend countless hours searching through dense legal documents just to find the answers they need. That’s why we built Rule-Trace — an AI-powered platform that makes understanding and applying regulations faster, easier, and more reliable.

Rule-Trace is designed specifically for municipal governments. Trained on Texas (other states to follow in the future) and federal legislation, it allows users to ask plain-language questions and instantly receive precise, cited responses from the relevant statutes. Instead of searching through hundreds of pages of code or waiting for legal reviews, staff can use Rule-Trace to locate the right rule in seconds. Whether verifying water sampling requirements, clarifying reporting obligations, or ensuring compliance with public works standards, Rule-Trace helps teams make informed decisions with confidence.
This technology represents a major step forward in how municipalities manage compliance. By pairing LSPS Solutions’ decades of public-sector experience with advanced AI capabilities, Rule-Trace enables cities to reduce time spent on research, minimize the risk of non-compliance, and reallocate resources toward higher-impact projects. It’s not about replacing expertise — it’s about empowering professionals to do their jobs more efficiently and accurately.
The platform is now live and ready to support cities across Texas, with nationwide coverage coming soon. To learn more or schedule a demo, visit www.rule-trace.com or contact the LSPS Solutions team today.
