Audit trail, 41 events, exported with the file

  • 40 min

    per case on an Asia investment manager's remediation backlog. Their team took two days.

  • 4 days

    to clear 200 overdue periodic reviews for an Asia fund administrator. Every file reviewed, none sampled, onboarding never paused.

  • Per case

    one fixed price. No day rates, no seat licences, no change orders when ownership runs four layers deep.

  • In writing

    we put the delivery date in the engagement letter and report progress case by case.

Use cases

The work we take on.

Remediation, periodic reviews, onboarding, or a check on your outsourcing provider's files. One process, one output, one price per case.

01 · Remediation

Clear a remediation programme before the inspection date.

Audit or the regulator found gaps and set a date. We work the whole population, file by file, and return every one before that date.

Deadline in writing · No new headcount · Progress reported per case

02 · Periodic reviews

Clear the periodic review backlog and keep the cycle current.

Reviews slipped past their trigger dates faster than your team could work them. We clear the overdue population, then run the recurring cycle so it stays clear.

Low, medium and high risk · EDD refresh · PEP and adverse media

03 · File quality testing

Test whether your fund administrator's KYC files meet your AML policy.

New CIMA regulation from 18 September 2026 requires you to demonstrate effective control over KYC activities outsourced to your fund administrator.

Independent · Reported per file · Board-ready summary

04 · Ongoing KYC

Investor and counterparty onboarding, as it arrives.

New cases every week, one price per case. We work new subscriptions, counterparties and trigger-event reviews under your policy, inside an agreed turnaround. No backlog builds.

How the work gets done

Agents work the case. A qualified human reviews it.

Every case runs the same five steps. Agents read, chart and screen in minutes. A qualified reviewer tests their conclusions. Complex cases go to senior compliance.

  1. 01Your standard, configuredYour AML policy, checklists and risk appetite, set up per jurisdiction before the first case.
  2. 02First pass by the agentsAgents read every document, build the ownership chart, screen sanctions, PEP and adverse media, and write the case with the reasoning set out.
  3. 03Human reviewA qualified reviewer checks the agents' work and tests each conclusion. Overriding the agents requires a written reason.
  4. 04Senior escalationSenior compliance takes high-risk and complex cases and records a recommendation.
  5. 05Audit-ready file, deliveredRisk assessment, screening rationale, indexed documents and an audit trail, in the format an inspector asks for.

Models we run on

Frontier models from more than one provider, routed per task. Client documents never train a model.

  • OpenRouter
  • Anthropic

Software · self-serve

Run the software yourself.

Client compliance teams can use the same review platform our own team uses. Agents work the case, your team reviews, your policy governs, and the file comes out the same. Run it alone, or send escalations to our compliance team.

Jurisdictions

Every jurisdiction. Your policy.

We configure your AML policy, checklists and risk appetite per jurisdiction and work every case to that standard. Most of our volume sits in offshore fund centres.

FAQ

Questions we get on the first call.

Call it managed KYC, KYC as a service or KYC outsourcing. This is how ours works.

Send us a question
What is managed KYC, and how is it different from KYC software?

You send us cases and we return complete, audit-ready files. Software gives your team a tool and leaves the work with them. We do the work. Our agents run the first pass, our compliance professionals review it, and your MLRO keeps the final approval.

Which jurisdictions do you support?

All of them. Most of our volume is in Cayman, Hong Kong, Singapore, Jersey, Luxembourg, BVI and the United States, and we configure your policy per jurisdiction before the first case.

Do you do fund KYC: investor onboarding and periodic reviews for funds?

Yes. Investor and counterparty onboarding, periodic reviews and trigger-event refreshes for funds, fund administrators and asset managers are the core of the service.

Can you run a Cayman AML independent review under the CIMA framework?

Yes. We help funds comply with the new CIMA regulation coming into force on 18 September 2026 by reviewing their AML programme and KYC case files.

How does the AI work, and will a regulator accept it?

Agents read the documents, build the ownership chart, screen sanctions, PEP and adverse media, and write the case with the reasoning set out. A qualified human reviews every file and every conclusion. What the regulator sees is a complete, human-reviewed file with an immutable audit trail.

How fast can you clear a backlog, and how do you price?

Around 20 minutes per case at the agents-plus-reviewer stage, in parallel across the population. We price per case, fixed, and commit to a delivery date in writing.

Can our own compliance team use the software instead?

Yes. The review platform is available self-serve or hybrid, with our compliance team taking escalations.

Where is our data held, and who can see it?

Client documents are held in an encrypted, access-controlled environment and never used to train a model. Hosting region, retention and access details are confirmed in the engagement letter.
