Check ads against your board's rules with AI
Published Nov 13, 2026 · Last checked Nov 13, 2026 · Last changed Nov 13, 2026A company's legal team built an AI agent that checks contracts against written standards and proposes edits. A practice can use the same method on ads and social media posts before they go out. Start by writing your advertising rules as a numbered list.

- For
- Beauty and cosmetic practices, dental offices. 1 to 30 providers. Owner, medical director, marketing.
- Cost and time
- The report gives no cost. About half a day to write the rules, with an AI tool the practice already pays for.
Why
CIO reported on Nov 11, 2026 that the legal team at Fujifilm Biotechnologies devised an agent to read contracts. It checks the terms against company standards and proposes edits, and the legal team reviews them. The agent is in a test area, and the company expects full use in early December. A practice does the same kind of check on every ad. The draft is compared with written rules: no promise of a result, no misleading photo, and no compounded drug called generic or the same as a brand. Law firm Morgan Lewis reports that the FDA sent more than 100 enforcement letters about compounded drug advertising in 2026.
What to do
- Write your advertising rules as numbered rules. Use your state board's rules, the federal rules on health claims, and your own policy on photos.
- Have your medical director or a healthcare lawyer confirm the list.
- Take your last 20 ads and posts.
- Check that each patient photo has written permission on file. Leave out any that does not.
- Give the rules and the drafts to an AI tool the practice has approved. Ask it to list every rule each one breaks.
- Have the medical director review its list.
- Add a rule for each problem it missed.
- Use it as a first check on new ads. A licensed person still approves each one.
What data may go in
Ad drafts and the rules list only. No patient information. A patient photo goes in only with written permission that covers this use.
Who checks the output
The medical director or the owner approves every ad. Review the rules list after every board or FDA change.
The rule to check
State medical and dental board rules cover advertising. Federal rules cover health claims and drug claims. A compounded drug may never be called generic or the same as a brand. Check your state board's rules and your privacy rules before you use this.
What can go wrong
The report gives no results yet, because the agent is still in a test area. The check also reads only the draft. It does not see what a provider says on a live video.
