The compliance plays the spec assumes you know.
Long-form pieces on GDPR cold outbound, written for technical founders and Data Protection Officers. Not legal advice — but the documents we hand our own DPO when a question comes up. Two pieces today; more shipping with each phase of the roadmap.
The 2026 LIA playbook for B2B cold outbound
Seven elements your DPO will accept, plus the common DPO objections and how to address each. Built around GDPR Art. 6(1)(f).
How to respond to a GDPR DPA inquiry in 30 days
A day-by-day plan for assembling the evidence pack, drafting the response, and submitting on time. Includes a sample response structure.
Signal extraction from public artifacts — find companies actively building
Why public job posts beat LinkedIn lists for dev-to-dev outbound. HN Who is Hiring, GitHub deps, career pages, fundraises, conference lists. Working Python + JS extraction code.
The audit chain is the product. The playbooks are how you wield it.
CogniLead ships a Legitimate Interest Assessment template, jurisdiction-aware LLM routing, and a Chainlog-anchored evidence pack. Knowing what to do with those artifacts on the day a DPO writes is the difference between a 30-day response and a six-week one. We publish the playbooks so the difference is visible before you sign anything.
