RegEd handles 8 million ad submissions. Their marketers are still waiting.
RegEd is the largest platform in the space — 350,000+ users, 80% of the top 25 financial services firms. It's also widely described as legacy, cumbersome, and slow to onboard.
Marcovio is designed so marketers can get to their first real compliance review without a months-long implementation project. It's purpose-built for the marketing workflow — not adapted from a broader compliance operations platform.
RegEd's reach in financial services compliance is undeniable. So is the implementation reality: months of onboarding, a platform built for compliance teams, and a marketer experience that hasn't kept pace with how marketing teams actually work in 2025. Marcovio is built for teams that need compliance in their workflow — not compliance officers who need a platform to manage marketing submissions.
RegEd has unmatched scale and regulatory depth in financial services. Their AI addition reflects genuine investment in modernization. For large institutions with complex compliance operations, they have entrenched relationships and proven scale.
RegEd is a compliance operations platform — advertising review is one function among many. Marketers navigate a system designed for compliance departments, not creative teams. Implementation is measured in months. And there's no Compliance Memo generated for the marketing team to present to the compliance officer.

The Compliance Memo no other tool generates
Every Marcovio review automatically generates a Compliance Memo — a structured summary document that travels with your campaign to the compliance officer. It shows exactly what was reviewed, which regulations applied, and what was flagged or cleared. Your CCO reviews documented work instead of raw drafts. And if regulators ever ask how your firm ensures marketing compliance, the documentation is already there.
