Illuminator®
Receive personalized alerts for proposed regulatory changes
Many regulatory professionals try to stay up to date by monitoring websites, newsletters, word of mouth and manual research. The process can be time-consuming and prone to gaps in information.
Our ULTRUS™ Product Stewardship collection now features alerts for proposed chemical regulation changes via the Illuminator® Regulation Monitoring Software. Illuminator® now includes alerts for proposed chemical regulation changes. Each alert provides a link to the proposal and important dates for comment periods.
With the Illuminator application, you can:

Procyon
New cross-platform benchmark and AI model updates for Procyon on macOS
Comparing performance between computers without a benchmark is complicated, and even more so when they aren’t running the same operating system. UL Solutions recently released a new version of our Office Productivity Benchmark that makes measuring and comparing the performance of installed Microsoft Office versions simple — even between systems running Windows and macOS.
We also updated Procyon with new AI models, enabling AI performance measurements of Apple Silicon Macs that take advantage of the new performance benefits introduced in the latest versions of macOS and Core ML Tools.
