Where Co-Analyst removes the bottleneck

ONBOARD / VERIFY

Every party to the transaction checked, not just the applicant

The applicant gets full diligence. The counterparties behind them often get whatever time is left.

The problem

A single trade transaction can involve an applicant, a beneficiary, one or more intermediary banks, a freight forwarder, and an end buyer across three or more jurisdictions. Diligence effort concentrates on the party the relationship sits with, because that is who the file is named after. The exposure sits with everyone else.

What ProSyft does

Co-Analyst verifies corporate structure, directors, and ultimate beneficial owners for every named party, resolving ownership across registries and citing each link to source.

Outcome

Verification depth stops depending on which party the file is named after.

Why This Breaks

Yourscreeningprogrammeincreasinglyrunsondocumentsyouneversee.

Trade finance controls were built around documentary credit, where the bank examines the paperwork and the examination is the control. Most global trade now settles on open-account terms, so those documents never reach the bank at all. Screening collapses into clean payment screening: an instruction, with little underneath it to check the instruction against.

So the control everyone audits covers a shrinking share of the book, and the growing share carries the least evidence. That is not a gap you close by screening the same names faster.

And the cost base is moving the wrong way. 64% of firms already using AI for trade expect compliance costs to rise by 5% or more as regulatory requirements fragment across jurisdictions. (WTO and ICC joint survey of 158 firms, 11 December 2025)

Want faster document examination?

Accepted wisdom says you add examiners.

Not with ProSyft. Co-Analyst reconciles presented documents against each other and against the credit terms in minutes, so examiner time goes to the discrepancies that need a decision.

Want screening you can evidence?

Accepted wisdom says that means a vendor holds your transaction data.

Not with ProSyft. Co-Analyst deploys inside your own Azure or AWS tenant. Counterparty data, correspondent flows, and screening decisions never leave your environment.

Want it defensible at examination?

Accepted wisdom says AI decisions can't be explained.

Not with ProSyft. Every flag and every clearance carries lineage back to the document that produced it, so "why was this flagged and that one cleared" has a deterministic answer.

How it Works

How it Works

EVIE™, your private orchestration engine, deploys inside your environment and runs trade compliance workflows autonomously. Your team checks rather than drives.

01

Connect to your existing systems

Native connection to your trade processing platform, core banking system, sanctions databases, and document stores. No export, no upload.

02

Generate outputs with hallucination contained

Compliance packs, screening records, discrepancy reports, and SAR drafts in Word, Excel, or PDF, every output cited to source.

03

Parse, understand, extract

EVIE™ reconciles presented documents, resolves ownership across parties, and cross-checks routes, cargo, and pricing against the credit terms.

04

Stay inside your perimeter

Your Azure tenant or on-premise, human-in-the-loop approval at every stage, audit logs retained locally.

Benefits

Benefits

Speed

Compliance workflow processing that took analyst hours per transaction runs in minutes.

Hallucination Contained

Every flag cited to the document that produced it. No fabricated discrepancies, no unevidenced clearances.

Compliance

A complete audit pack per transaction, built for EU AI Act explainability and DORA rather than bolted on afterwards.

Scalability

Transaction volume stops driving headcount.

Sovereignty

Counterparty and transaction data never leaves your environment.

Off-the-shelf

Live inside your tenant in weeks, on OPEX not CAPEX.

How We Compare

Fourwaystoautomatetradecompliance.Threecostyousomethingyoucan'tgetback.

General-purpose AI assistants

Days to deploy, minimal governance, vendor-side data custody. For correspondent banking and sanctions-sensitive data that is a non-starter, and a hallucinated discrepancy finding is indistinguishable from a real one at examination.

Consultants and custom agents

Eight to sixteen weeks, high cost, variable governance, shared data custody. Typically shelf-ware within six months.

Building it yourself

Six to twelve months to first workflow, stacked on top of your existing compliance spend, with a permanent maintenance obligation.

ProSyft Co-Analyst™

Deployed inside your tenant with the first workflow live in weeks. Full audit trail, hallucination contained, data custody stays with you.

The control of a self-build, the speed of off-the-shelf, behind your firewall.

How You Engage

One workflow. Measure it. Then expand on your terms.

No seat licences, no data charges, no renegotiation. Each new workflow is a single-line amendment to your existing agreement. You also get a named delivery lead for the full engagement, and a committed response time for any issue throughout.

Weeks 1–2 — Discovery and scoping

We map your highest-cost compliance workflow, agree baseline metrics, and define deployment scope, integration points, and the sign-off pathway with your IT and compliance leads.

Weeks 3–6 — Deployment

Co-Analyst deployed inside your Azure tenant, first workflow live, outputs validated against the baseline. No data leaves your environment at any stage.

Day 90 — ROI validation

A joint report covering time saved, analyst hours recovered, and cost impact, which becomes the business case for the next workflow.
