Now imagine having a smart assistant that catches those compliance issues before you even submit. That’s exactly what HighLevel’s new AI-powered A2P Compliance Validation does, and it’s here to change the game for businesses using SMS to reach customers.

Whether you’re a seasoned marketer or just diving into A2P registration, this powerful update helps you get it right the first time.

What is A2P Compliance and Why It Matters

A2P (Application-to-Person) messaging is the standard for sending business texts in the U.S. through a 10-digit number (10DLC). Due to increased regulations, campaigns must meet specific carrier rules to be approved.

Most rejections happen because of:

• Poorly written or missing opt-in forms
• Incomplete or missing Privacy Policies
• No visible Terms of Service
• Pre-checked consent boxes (a big no-no)

HighLevel’s AI compliance tool helps solve these exact problems — before you hit submit.

How the AI-Powered Compliance Review Works

When you’re about to submit an A2P SMS campaign in HighLevel, the system now performs a real-time scan and validation of the links you’ve provided.

Here’s what happens:

1. Auto-scan of your opt-in form URL
2. Retrieval and analysis of the linked Privacy Policy and Terms of Service
3. Display of a compliance review modal showing:

• ✅ Passed vs. failed compliance checks
• 🧠 Easy-to-understand guidance for each issue
• 🧰 Tooltips with fix suggestions (support articles coming soon)

You must complete the compliance check before you can proceed with your A2P campaign submission.

What the AI Tool Validates

Opt-in Form Checks

• Business name is clearly visible
• Checkbox for explicit consent (unchecked by default)
• Links to Privacy Policy and Terms of Service
• Opt-out instructions provided
• Clear message frequency, type, and data rate disclosure
• No required “non-mandatory” checkboxes

Privacy Policy Must Include

• Data collection and usage explanation
• SMS opt-in details
• Cookie and tracking practices
• Data protection policies
• User rights
• Mobile data sharing/selling disclaimer

Terms of Service Should Cover

Practical Example

Let’s say you submit a lead generation campaign with this opt-in page:

Problem: Your checkbox is pre-checked, and your privacy policy is just one sentence.
AI Review Feedback:
❌ The consent checkbox must not be pre-selected
❌ The privacy policy must include data usage and tracking practices
✅ Business name is shown
✅ Terms of Service are linked

In this case, the AI clearly identifies and explains what needs fixing, no guessing games, no back-and-forth with support.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Compliance Tool

1. Navigate to your A2P campaign submission inside HighLevel

2. Enter your Opt-in form URL

3. The system automatically scans your:

• Opt-in Form
• Privacy Policy URL
• Terms of Service URL

4. A modal window pops up with validation results

5. Address any flagged issues using the tooltip help

6. Once resolved, complete your submission

You can also choose to proceed at your own risk if issues remain, though it’s highly recommended to fix them.

Important Limitations to Note

• Only available for Website Form and Facebook Lead Form opt-in types (more coming soon)
• This AI validation does not guarantee approval carriers make final decisions
• Your campaign use case and actual message content also influence approvals

No Additional Cost (for now)

Currently, the AI-powered validation is included at no extra charge. However, standard A2P registration costs still apply, depending on your phone number type and campaign tier.
