Squirrel™
One live compliance programme for scaling healthtech and medical device teams. Here is what your buyers and auditors see:
Assurance you can prove
Status is worked out from your evidence. A control shows as Met only once an Acorn specialist has reviewed and signed it, and every change sits on the audit trail.
Met means signed
Your Statement of Applicability, traceability matrix and hazard log stay current as your product changes.
Coherence checks flag contradictions between your documents before an auditor finds them.
Every output is sourced, traceable and reviewed by a specialist, and backed by our compliance warranty.
AI governance, built in
Start with an AI maturity assessment. Squirrel turns the result into ISO 42001 and EU AI Act progress, runs an impact assessment for each AI system, and finds the AI tools your team already uses. Agents propose the fixes, and nothing changes until you approve.

Specialist sign-off and warranty
Clinical Safety Officers, DPOs and certified ISO auditors review every output before it counts. If an assessor rejects warranted evidence, we fix it within five working days.
Every framework, every market
One workspace for your whole programme, cross-mapped
Evidence gathered once counts across every framework it satisfies. Shared controls are mapped for you, from onboarding to audit.
Device grade
Hazard log, ISO 14971 risk management, traceability, corrective and preventive action (CAPA) and 21 CFR Part 11 e-signatures, built for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and AI as a Medical Device (AIaMD) under the UK and EU Medical Device Regulations (MDR).
Compliance goes stale the day after the audit. Squirrel™ keeps it live.
Compliance goes stale the day after the audit. Squirrel keeps it live.
Built For Health
In healthcare, compliance makes or breaks adoption. From first product to multi-market scale, Squirrel runs DTAC V2, DSPT, ISO 27001, ISO 13485, MDR and AI governance in one platform.
End Compliance Silos
Regulated markets demand many frameworks. That shouldn’t mean wasting time and resources doing the same work twice. Squirrel™ centralises tasks and evidence so your effort counts across every standard.
Powerful Automation
Squirrel drafts documents from your registers and pulls evidence straight from GitHub, Jira, Google Workspace, Microsoft Intune and more. Integrations come as standard. Reviews, renewals and expiring evidence are tracked for you.
Ready Where You Are
Import all your compliance frameworks, including what you’ve already done. Get a live, prioritised plan, and keep moving without restarting your compliance from scratch.
Expert Guidance, On Demand
Clinical Safety Officers, DPOs, MDR specialists and pen testers on call when you need them. Before you submit, our experts review your evidence and back it with our warranty.

My product is a medical device. Can Squirrel help?
What if I already have some compliance work done?
How does Squirrel's AI work?
Can I manage multiple frameworks at once?
Is Squirrel suitable for organisations outside the UK?
What kind of support will I get?
What if regulations change while I’m mid-project?
Can I add more frameworks or markets later?
You could get compliance assistance from a number of places.
Compliance consultancies
Will reduce some barriers to market entry and
provide guidance for compliance guidance...
But
Charge day rates, and their work goes stale once the engagement ends.
Other compliance platforms
Will simplify compliance requirements and save you some time...
But
Might not underwrite your compliance evidence to warranty that you will pass external audits and assessments.
Reasons Squirrel™ is the best of both worlds:
As smart as a consulting company. As affordable as a compliance platform. Better than both.

And we provide a warranty for all of your evidence, meaning...
We’ve got super-helpful resources
to guide you through compliance.
