What the record establishes.
And what it does not.

Intelligence on the people, companies and supply chains you are about to put your name behind. Every finding traces to a primary source you can open yourself. Every gap in coverage is stated, not hidden.

What we establish

One engine. Three subjects.

The same discipline — resolve the entity, follow the ownership, corroborate the record, then say plainly what could not be established — applied to whichever subject the decision turns on.

People

What the public record holds on an individual: sanctions and watchlists, adverse media, directorships and disqualifications, statutory registers. Used for pre-employment screening and for senior appointments.

Companies

An entity's ownership, control and standing — beneficial owners traced through holding structures, the people behind them screened, and their other companies examined.

Supply chains

Where a thing came from, and how far back that can be evidenced. Suppliers traced tier by tier, with the point at which traceability stops reported as a finding in its own right.

How it works · people

From submission to report in hours, not weeks.

You submit a subject. We handle the rest — consent, the checks, and a sourced report with its own coverage limits stated. A reviewer releases every one.

01
You submit a subject

Name, email, and the role or engagement the assessment relates to.

02
Candidate consents

We send them a secure invite. They provide consent, personal details, and employment history — fully GDPR compliant.

03
Automated checks run

Sanctions, adverse media, employment verification, and professional register checks — all run automatically.

04
You get a sourced assessment

A score, a band, and a plain-English report with every finding sourced and dated — followed by a statement of what the sources could not establish. Every report is signed before it reaches you.

What we check · people

Eight checks, and an identity resolved first.

Identity is established before anything else runs, because a finding against the wrong person is worse than no finding at all. Findings are then weighted by severity, recency and relevance to the engagement. Four of the eight are below.

Sanctions & watchlists

Cross-referenced against global sanctions lists. An active match is always flagged, regardless of role.

Adverse media

Published reporting screened for criminal, regulatory and reputational risk — weighted by severity, by how recent the coverage is, and discounted where the match to the subject is weak.

Corporate registry

Directorships, shareholdings and beneficial ownership from Companies House and the Danish CVR, including roles that have ended and companies that failed during tenure.

Statutory registers

Disqualified-director records, insolvency and bankruptcy notices, and official gazettes across the jurisdictions a subject is connected to.

Scoring methodology

Three outcomes, one recommendation.

Every candidate is scored 0–100. The result determines the recommendation — and whether human review is needed before you see it.

80–100
Clear

No material findings against the sources reached. Released after review, like every report.

50–79
Caution

Findings that warrant attention. A human reviewer checks before the report reaches you.

0–49
Do Not Proceed

Serious flags identified. Human-reviewed and delivered with full context.

Case study

Four days from election
to expulsion.

A political party's newest parliamentarian was expelled within days of winning his seat. The warning signs were already in public records — months before the ballot.

We ran the screening that never happened. Three findings. All pre-election. All public.
