Detect complex threats with industry-leading AI and machine learning capabilities

Take a multidimensional approach to identifying complex threats, such as virtual currencies, human trafficking, trade-based money laundering and drug trafficking. Combine proven, out-of-the-box scenarios with industry data to identify unknown relationships through network analytics. Join our innovative clients who augment traditional approaches with award-winning AI and machine learning capabilities to identify complex anomalies.

Adopt perpetual know your customer (KYC) best practices

An integrated customer due diligence/enhanced due diligence (CDD/EDD) capability monitors changes in demographic characteristics that influence client risk ratings and behavior-based triggers from transaction monitoring processes to trigger enhanced due diligence reviews. The EDD workflow prompts analysts with dynamic checklists to ensure consistent capture of KYC information. Network analytics provides a visual metaphor of hidden relationships and notable risks for quickly identifying ultimate beneficial owners.

Meet your business needs with open administration

With low-code/no-code system administration, your institution can tailor the system to meet the needs of your business without requiring technical consultants.

Improve efficiency with enhanced entity resolution

The system summarizes potential suspicious activity from scenario-fired events at a customer or counterparty dimension, significantly enhancing efficiency compared with transaction-level reviews. Our real-time network and entity generation capabilities empower you to predict relationships, resolve entities by deduplicating entity records, plug intelligence gaps and uncover hidden relationships in real time based on the latest data without the need to execute long overnight batch jobs.
