The problem
Records sit in fragmented registries and ownership hides behind layered entities, so manual review stays slow and still misses the shells it exists to catch.

Screens sanctions, PEP, and adverse media, then triages the discrepancies and shell-company patterns KYB surfaces.
Beyond onboarding
The business you clear on day one keeps changing, so the platform re-screens entities and owners continuously, with no re-onboarding.

KYB (Know Your Business) verification confirms that a business is legitimate before you onboard it: validating its tax identifiers, screening it against sanctions watchlists, and identifying the people who ultimately own and control it.
An Ultimate Beneficial Owner is the person who ultimately owns or controls a business, even through layers of holding entities. Regulators require identifying UBOs because sanctioned individuals and money launderers hide behind corporate structures.
By cross-referencing applicants against known shell-company lists and automatically flagging discrepancies in names, addresses, dates, and other key identifiers, the inconsistencies that manual reviewers miss.
KYC verifies an individual customer's identity. KYB verifies a business entity: its registration, its watchlist status, and its owners. The two work together, since every business account ultimately leads to people who also need KYC.
100% of IRS-registered U.S. businesses plus companies across 190+ countries and territories, verified in real time rather than through lengthy manual reviews.
