featuresSAN FRANCISCO, CA – October 8, 2026. TrustArc today announced the next generation of Arc Intelligence, the AI layer of the TrustArc Platform for navigating global compliance and AI risk. The release marks a major expansion of agentic AI capabilities built to help privacy, legal, and compliance teams do more with less. Now agentic, Ask Arc can take action on a user’s behalf within the Platform through human-approved, conversational commands. New support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) extends Arc Intelligence in two directions: connecting it to an organization’s own business systems for richer context, and extending it into the AI assistants teams already use every day.https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
featuresPrivacy teams are stretched thin. According to ISACA, the median privacy team lost nearly half its dedicated headcount in a single year, even as AI adoption pushes privacy programs to take on more, not less. Eighty percent of privacy professionals report taking on responsibilities beyond their core role in the past year. Cisco’s 2026 research finds that while 90% of organizations say their privacy programs have expanded because of AI, 72% of privacy teams say they still lack the resources to govern it. TrustArc built this next generation of Arc Intelligence to help close that gap. “Ask Arc has always been about giving privacy teams a faster way to get answers. With this release, it does more than answer, it takes action, and it goes wherever our customers are already working. That’s the direction we’re taking Arc Intelligence: less time spent stitching systems together to consolidate data, freeing up privacy professionals to get more work done faster and with great confidence,” said Jason Wesbecher, Chief Executive Officer at TrustArc.https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
featuresMCP: THE API FOR AIhttps://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
featuresBut Arc Intelligence didn’t stop at doing more inside TrustArc. With this release, Arc Intelligence adds support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard, sometimes described as “the API for AI,” that lets AI applications connect to external data and tools through one standardized connection instead of a custom integration for every pairing. For TrustArc customers, that support works in two directions.https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
featuresFirst, Arc Intelligence is now available inside the AI assistants privacy teams already run, including Claude, Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and more, so teams can work on privacy without leaving the tools already open on their desktop.https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
features“I have not been more excited about technology innovation for business, legal, regulatory, compliance, privacy, security and AI governance professionals in many years. Arc Intelligence’s new agentic actions and MCP connectivity have been truly transformational for our program, and they seamlessly integrate with the new headless agentic capabilities that D&B has recently introduced for risk and compliance professionals. It takes the myriad of handoffs and administrative burdens that can overwhelm our profession and lifts them off our plates, reducing work that took many hours to just a few minutes, so we can finally focus on what matters strategically instead of just keeping up. This isn’t an incremental improvement; it’s a game changer for how our profession works.”https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/
features“I like the smarter Arc! And because Arc is smarter and connected with MCP, our primary AI productivity interface, Copilot, is smarter and more efficient too. Additional and unexpected benefits include faster onboarding for new hires and Arc becoming the junior ‘virtual’ lawyer on my team, pulling context from TrustArc and other systems so work that once needed a senior lawyer can now be done by a junior lawyer, ultimately freeing up my experienced people to focus on more strategic work.”https://trustarc.com/press/trustarc-announces-the-next-generation-of-ai-capabilities-in-arc-intelligence/

Limits and method

Limitations and open questions

Known constraints and missing evidence from the collected pages.

The collected pages do not mention competitors by name. Evidence gaps include lack of detailed pricing, customer counts, and independent review data. Open questions: How does TrustArc compare to specific alternatives? What are the actual implementation timelines and outcomes beyond vendor claims?

23

Sources, method, and limitations

Evidence inventory, collection method, provider use, and constraints.

This report is based on 15 collected pages from trustarc.com, including product pages, integration documentation, press releases, and a resource page. The evidence catalog includes 178 items, but only a subset was used to support the claims. External proof search was conducted and identified a G2 report reference, but no independent review data was scraped. Limitations: Some claims are marketing statements rather than verified facts.
