FDA Regulatory Intelligence

Smart FDA Design & Development Files System

Your automated
DDF documentation builder

Now with free FDA submission classifier & 510(k) predicate finder. Try it today.

Describe your device once. DDF Flow classifies the FDA pathway, assembles the complete 90+ document tree, drafts every section, and wires it into a live, traceable, audit-ready file — in minutes, not months. Auto-traces requirements from User Needs to Test Cases. DDF (Design & Development Files), formerly known as the DHF (Design History File), is the intelligent design-control record behind every FDA submission.

10 ways DDF Flow builds your submission

Every manual regulatory task — now automated end to end.

01

FDA Pathway Classifier

DDF Flow reads your device intake and classifies the FDA pathway — 510(k), De Novo, PMA, or Exempt — with applicable regulations and standards.

02

Device Profile Setup

Describe your device once; the Auto-Draft system builds the full profile narrative every downstream document is built from.

03

510(k) Predicate Finder

DDF Flow searches the FDA database and scores predicate devices for substantial equivalence, with a strategic rationale.

04

90+ Document Generation

DDF Flow assembles the complete DDF/DHF document tree — 90+ templates — with the right documents added automatically based on your classification and regulatory pathway.

05

Full Document Drafting

The Auto-Draft system drafts every section tuned for FDA design controls — regenerate, refine, or write and let it expand your content.

06

Document Export

Export clean, audit-ready DOCX with tables, images, and requirements intact — one click.

07

Traceability Matrix & Auto-Tracing

DDF Flow extracts requirements and builds a live trace matrix across needs → inputs → outputs → V&V.

08

Document Insights

Per-document interview questions shape each document to your specific device and use case.

09

Facts Registry

DDF Flow auto-extracts technical facts and flags cross-document changes before they become conflicts.

10

Regulatory Auditor

The Auditor reviews your submission narrative across the whole file — conflict-free, consistent, submission-ready.

How it works

Build your DDF in 4 steps

Work top-down: facts → strategy → documents. Everything downstream inherits what you set upstream.

1

Build your Device Profile

The facts every document is built from. Describe your device once and let the Auto-Draft system build the whole profile, then refine.

2

Set strategy in your Plans

Open each Plan and answer its interview. These strategic decisions cascade automatically into every document they govern.

3

Generate the documents

Open any document and draft section by section. Downstream documents auto-pull from your facts and plans.

4

Check consistency and export

Run the Auditor to catch contradictions across the file, then export your DHF/DDF as a consistent story.
