Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for compliance detection using natural language processing. Various embodiments include a computing device that can transcribe a sound recording of a transcript, where the sound recording can be representative of a telephonic call occurring between an agent and a client. The computing device can determine that the telephonic call included a discussion related to a regulated subject based on an analysis by a natural language processor of the transcript. The computing device can obtain a compliance rule based at least in part on the regulated subject of the telephonic call. The computing device can determine that the compliance rule has been violated using a natural language processor of the transcript. The computing device can also store various information related to the compliance violation.
