The UK specialists · Deep, not wide
Every UK company, every director and owner, and the property they hold, nearly 48 million entities resolved into a single relationship graph, with daily adverse media across every category of risk and a confidence score on every match. The network, the assets and the reputational risk that name screening leaves out.
Part of the Kronaxis platform. Sits alongside Kronaxis Compliance, which proves every action you take against it. Screen who you deal with, then prove the interaction complied.
Proven where it counts · Provable, not plausible
Kronaxis analysis is cited in Private Eye by the investigative journalist Richard Brooks, a two time Paul Foot Award winner and former HM Revenue and Customs tax inspector, in his investigation into who really owns UK property held behind overseas companies. The finding: of more than 90,000 properties held by offshore companies, around 30,000 still declare no real owner, so roughly a third cannot be linked to a real person. Read the story →
Findings are decision support for a trained professional, not an allegation against any person.
Others give you plausible. We give you provable.
The data universe behind it
Public registers, property and land, the open web and a daily adverse media corpus, four data universes, every source cross referenced to the same people, companies and places, so a single lookup reaches all of it.
Figures are live counts from the platform. The value is not the size of any one source, it is that all of them resolve to the same graph.
The graph behind every answer
And beneath every answer: fresh adverse media propagated through the graph every morning.
Where standard screening stops
Every team already runs name screening. It is necessary and it is not enough. The three most damaging findings in a file are usually the three a watchlist cannot return.
The subject is clean. The person who shares their registered office, their co director, or their family address is not. Name screening checks one node. Risk lives in the edges.
A director convicted of a serious offence rarely appears on a financial watchlist, yet it is exactly the reputational and conduct exposure your policy asks you to catch. We grade every category, not only fraud.
A screen run last quarter cannot know about this morning. Adverse media that is not current is a control that has already failed. Ours refreshes daily.
What the engine does that a list cannot
Companies House, ownership, shared addresses, related parties and offshore structures held as one graph. Risk propagates through the relationships that connect entities, so a flag on one person surfaces the exposure it creates for the people around them, and the reverse. It never floods: propagation stops at the edge of signal, not noise.
One and a half million articles, graded across the full range a compliance policy actually covers: financial crime, bribery and sanctions, but also conduct, safeguarding and violence. The reputational risk your board asks about, not only the risk a regulator has already listed.
New reporting is ingested, categorised, matched to entities and propagated through the graph every morning. Ongoing monitoring is the default state of the file, not a quarterly refresh you have to remember to run.
Every UK address, thirty one million property transactions from the Land Registry and the title boundaries that go with them, tied back to the people and companies that hold them. Source of wealth and asset exposure become a lookup, not a manual land registry trawl.
Every match carries a resolution confidence and the source that produced it. An analyst sees at a glance which findings are firm and which need a call, so review time goes where it counts and a namesake never becomes a false accusation.
Where we fit in your stack
Honesty first, because it is how the best compliance teams already work: nobody runs one box. We are the screening and intelligence layer, we sit alongside your identity check and your case management, and we are the best in the country at the part we do.
Global sanctions and politically exposed person screening, beneficial ownership and the resolved network, property and source of wealth, and daily adverse media across every category, every match confidence scored.
We do not verify passports or run biometric liveness, and we are not a credit reference agency. Keep the identity tool you trust. Bring us the verified person or company and we tell you who they really are, what they own and the risk around them.
Who it is for
Engagement
This is not a seat licence or a shelf product. We scope the data, the volume and the deployment to your firm, from a single team screening suppliers to a bank running enhanced due diligence at scale, and to whether you want it managed by us or self hosted. Every engagement includes the full data set: registers, sanctions, offshore records, the network graph and daily adverse media. The fastest way to a number is a short working session on your own names.
How we compare · Deep, not wide
The global tools go a mile wide and an inch deep. We go deep on the one country most of your risk sits in. We carry the same global sanctions and politically exposed person lists everyone screens against, and then go further than any of them on UK ownership, property and daily adverse media. For a firm whose counterparties are mostly British, depth beats breadth.
Eighteen honest, side by side breakdowns, Palantir included, where each rival is stronger and where the UK specialist wins.
