In plain English

Paper Trail is a compliance workbench for know-your-business (KYB) checks. Four AI agents find the company, gather its ownership, screening hits and adverse news, compare the customer's documents with company-registry data, and write the due-diligence report. A deterministic rules engine, not the AI, sets every risk score and outcome and decides whether a case goes straight through or to a reviewer.

How it works

  1. The Intake agent identifies the business customer.
  2. The Research agent collects ownership details, screening hits and adverse news.
  3. The Verification agent compares the customer's documents against company-registry data.
  4. A deterministic rules engine sets the risk score and sends the case straight through or to a reviewer.
  5. The Report agent writes the due-diligence report, with a full audit trail and a governance view of agent cost, corrections and guardrails.
