An independent, founder-led platform — quietly running since 2022.
From spreadsheets and e-mailed watch-list attachments to a screening platform across twenty-one countries — fifteen years of building the tool we’d have wanted on our own desk.
As a long-standing payments and core-banking systems provider, screening began life inside our legacy banking products as a bundled service — then earned its independence in 2016 as a stand-alone screening tool, and finally became its own product in 2021: KYC Right Source.
Our journey started in 2009, on the desk of a compliance practitioner who had spent the previous decade running screening teams the hard way — spreadsheets to reconcile lists, brittle name-matching rules, and watch-list updates that landed by email attachment on a good week. The financial crisis had just dragged AML into the boardroom; the USA PATRIOT Act was being re-interpreted in real time; and the few off-the-shelf screening tools then available treated every bank’s problem as if it were a tier-1 New York shop’s. We started, quietly, by building the screening tool we would have wanted on our own desk.
The years that followed reshaped the entire field. 2014 brought the Crimea-and-Russia tranche and exposed how quickly sanctions complexity could double overnight. 2018’s GDPR pulled data-protection law into every screening conversation. The 2020–21 pandemic forced onboarding to go remote, video, biometric — almost overnight. 2022 doubled the global sanctions-list count again in a matter of months as the Russia/Ukraine response unfolded. By 2023–24, generative AI had arrived and regulators began asking, sharply, whether a black-box risk score was even acceptable. Through every one of those shifts we re-engineered — the matching engine, the data-ingest pipeline, the case workflow, even the way we wrote our culture into the code — so that the tool kept up with the real world the analyst was screening against.
What that long evolution produced is the platform you see today: a screening stack rebuilt from primary sources — proprietary PEP collection, real-time sanctions ingestion, and an explainable matching engine that can show its reasoning to an examiner without a vendor support ticket. We brought the whole assembly to market at a per-scan price that small and mid-sized institutions can actually budget for, because the lessons of the last fifteen-plus years were emphatic: tier-1 shops are not the only ones trying to keep good customers and keep bad ones out.
Today the platform serves banks, money-service businesses, fintechs, insurers, casinos and regulated professionals across two continents and 21+ countries. The same engine handles real-time PEP, adverse & social-media search, 1,700 active sanctions lists, and adverse-media coverage in more than forty languages. It runs in production every day for compliance teams who treat accuracy, not volume, as the metric that matters.
What you receive is not a vendor. It is a desk: a single contract, every module included, an analyst on the phone at three in the morning if your regulator calls. We do not believe in seat tiers, hidden ingestion charges, or the ritual of the three-year lock-in. Fifteen-plus years of running screening through every regulatory weather front has taught us that the right answer is built — carefully, and out in the open — not bought off a shelf.
No aggregator, no white-label sourcing. We collect, normalise and curate every list ourselves — so the data you screen against is the data we are accountable for.
99% match-score accuracy on labelled tests. Every score is broken down per feature so an analyst can defend any decision in audit. Volume is not a metric we celebrate.
One contract, every module included. 65% cheaper than incumbent vendors at comparable accuracy and coverage. The renewal letter on your desk goes unsigned for a reason.
Two offices across two continents — so a regulator never finds us asleep.
Whether you need a price, a sandbox key, or a face-to-face walkthrough — we'll route you to the right person at the right office.
