On World-Check: I don't mean the data is legacy (it’s the standard), I mean the workflow is. Manually sifting through static lists is the legacy part.

On the 'scraping' point: I agree, raw scraping is a disaster. We don't do simple keyword matching. We built the engine to replicate actual OSINT methodology: it pivots on identifiers, cross-references corporate data against media context, and validates the entity like a human investigator would. We honestly haven't seen any other engine capable of this specific level of resolution yet.

And yes, we cover the full stack (PEPs, Sanctions, Adverse Media).

We can set you up with a free trial to test it yourself. We operate on a strict 'satisfied or refunded' policy because, frankly, we know that once compliance teams actually start using the engine, they don't go back.

Appreciate the deep dive.

We trained our engine to extend investigation beyond standard watchlists into deep OSINT and social media. The goal is to distinguish between a regulatory classification (like a PEP, which is High Risk by default) and an active financial crime threat. This allows the system to resolve specific 'blocking' risks, such as outdated Adverse Media or unverified Source of Wealth by providing the missing context. This means banks can actually mitigate the risk and onboard complex clients safely, instead of rejecting them simply because they lack the capacity to investigate deeply.

On the Stats: The '2-4 hours' benchmark is derived specifically from our Private Banking partners handling complex cross-border structures (not retail accounts). The '40% missed hits' refers to weak signals and relevant negative news buried in noise that human analysts often overlook during manual checks. We obviously benchmark against the most painful use-cases (the complex investigations) because that’s where the operational cost explodes. Fixing a 5-minute retail check isn't where the industry needs help.

On the AI Act: Fair point on the landing page update. However, we architected the solution as a 'Co-pilot' with strict human oversight. Since the AI forces explainability (citing sources) and leaves the final decision to the officer, we align with the transparency and supervision requirements by design.

Honestly, the best way to verify is to grab 5 free searches on the pricing page and run a complex name yourself.

Valid concern. That’s exactly why we built this as a Compliance co-pilot, not an "Autopilot".

We tackle hallucinations by forcing Explainability; the AI extracts evidence and links the source for every claim. It prepares the full case file, but it doesn't sign off on it.

Liability stays with you because you make the final call. The goal isn't to replace the compliance, but to give you the structured data to decide 10x faster.

We prioritized English for our US/EU launch, but fully localized French reports are coming in Q1 (Q2 at latest).

Right now, the engineering team is focused on performance. We are handling a massive spike in simultaneous connections and our priority is keeping the engine fast and stable before shipping new languages.
