Platform Overview

TrustGate is an AI-native identity verification and AML compliance platform that helps regulated businesses onboard customers faster while meeting KYC, AML, and fraud prevention obligations. It replaces fragmented point solutions with a single platform that automates verification, screening, risk scoring, and case management -- reducing manual review time and strengthening your compliance posture.

Who TrustGate Is For​

TrustGate is built for the people who own compliance outcomes, not just the engineers who integrate them.

  • Compliance Directors -- Evaluate TrustGate as a platform that consolidates KYC, AML screening, risk scoring, and audit trails under one roof, with configurable policies that adapt to your regulatory environment.
  • KYC/AML Analysts -- Work screening hits, investigate cases, and resolve alerts through a purpose-built dashboard with AI-assisted hit resolution and priority queuing.
  • Compliance Officers -- Configure workflow rules, set risk thresholds, define escalation paths, and maintain audit-ready records without engineering support.
  • Developers -- Integrate identity verification into your application via REST APIs, a React SDK, or webhooks, and go live with a few API calls.

Core Capabilities​

Identity Verification​

Verify individuals using government-issued documents, biometrics, and address data.

  • Document verification with automated OCR extraction from passports, national IDs, and driver's licenses, including MRZ parsing for travel documents
  • Biometric verification with face matching (ID photo to selfie comparison) and interactive liveness detection to prevent spoofing
  • AI-powered document classification that automatically categorizes uploaded documents by type and validates recency requirements

AML Screening​

Screen applicants against global watchlists with continuous monitoring.

  • Sanctions screening against OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, UN Security Council, and 200+ additional global watchlists
  • PEP screening across Tier 1 through Tier 4 classifications
  • Adverse media monitoring for negative news coverage and media mentions
  • Fuzzy name matching with confidence scores to catch transliterations and name variations
  • Ongoing monitoring with daily batch re-screening and instant alerts when watchlist data changes

Risk Engine​

Automate decisioning with configurable risk rules and workflow automation.

  • Weighted risk scoring on a 0--100 scale combining AML, document, country, address, identity, and device signals
  • Configurable workflow rules that auto-approve, escalate, hold, or reject based on conditions you define
  • FATF geographic risk analysis with automatic flagging for grey-list and black-list jurisdictions
  • Rule testing that lets you validate rules against real applicant data before activating them

Case Management​

Investigate screening hits and manage compliance decisions with structured workflows.

  • Automated case creation when screening hits require human review, with priority queuing for critical matches (sanctions, high-risk PEPs)
  • Case types for sanctions, PEP, fraud, AML, and verification investigations
  • Playbooks and checklists that standardize investigation steps and assignment rules
  • AI-assisted investigation with confidence-rated suggestions for hit resolution
  • Case notes, tags, and full audit history for every action taken

Fraud Prevention​

Detect suspicious activity at the point of onboarding using device, email, phone, and IP signals.

  • Device fingerprinting to detect multi-account fraud and track device characteristics
  • IP analysis including VPN, proxy, and TOR detection
  • Email verification with disposable email domain detection
  • Phone verification with VOIP detection
  • Fraud statistics dashboard for monitoring patterns across your applicant population

Compliance Tooling​

Maintain audit-ready records and meet data protection obligations.

  • Tamper-evident audit trail with chain-hashed logging for every action across the platform, exportable to CSV
  • GDPR compliance including Subject Access Request exports (Article 15 and 20), Right to Erasure, consent tracking, and legal hold management
  • Configurable data retention aligned with 5--7 year AML record-keeping requirements
  • Evidence packaging for regulatory examinations and external audits
  • PII encryption for all personal data at rest
  • Role-based access control with granular permissions
