Know your customer end to end.

Identity verification, relational PEP screening, sanctions, and negative media — all in a single workflow, with evidence and traceability at every step.

The challenge

Knowing your customer is harder than it looks

Fraud, fake documents, and regulatory requirements make manual KYC slow and risky.

Validating identity, cross-checking sanctions lists, and monitoring political exposure manually eats up your compliance team's time and delays onboarding new customers.

Without automation, every check depends on manual research across multiple sources — raising the risk of human error and making it harder to prove compliance during an audit.

The three layers of trust in KYC

Identity, relationships, and reputation: a complete check crosses all three before reaching a result.

Layer 1 — Identity
Authenticity validation of national ID, driver's license, and other registration documents.
Layer 2 — Relationships and exposure
Relational PEP (direct and through family or corporate relationships) and national and international sanctions lists.
Layer 2 — Sanctions
Cross-checking against national and international sanctions lists.
Layer 3 — Reputation
Negative media: news and mentions indicating reputational risk.
Layer 3 — History
Criminal records and legal actions relevant to risk.
Continuous monitoring
All three layers are periodically reassessed, not just at registration.
