The Regulatory Reality

73%

of green marketing claims are misleading or unverifiable, according to European Commission research.

EU Green Claims Directive

Requires pre-approval of environmental claims with independent verification. Non-compliance penalties apply from 2026.

FTC Green Guides & SEC Rules

The FTC's revised Green Guides and SEC climate disclosure rules impose strict substantiation requirements on US brands.

One greenwashing allegation can erase years of brand trust and trigger six-figure fines. The question is no longer whether regulators are watching. It is whether your marketing team is ready.

How It Works

Three steps from campaign upload to compliant copy.

Step 1

Scan

Upload or connect your live campaigns. LoLA AI reads every environmental claim across all creative copy and messaging.

Step 2

Flag

Risk levels — Low, Medium, and High — are assigned per claim with a direct reference to the applicable regulation.

Step 3

Fix

LoLA AI rewrites flagged copy with compliant, credible alternatives that preserve intent while removing legal exposure.

Risk Scoring in Practice

Every claim is assessed and categorised with a regulation reference.

High Risk

"Carbon neutral product": no verified offset methodology cited.

Medium Risk

"Eco-friendly packaging": vague term, requires substantiation under EU GCD.

Low Risk

"30% recycled materials": specific, verifiable claim. Minor disclosure recommended.
