DeepDive today announced the launch of a revolutionary AI platform for AML compliance teams and financial crime fighters that conduct Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) and investigations.
AML compliance analysts face an impossible trade-off, they can either conduct thorough investigations that take days, or fast investigations that may miss critical intelligence. DeepDive combines multi-language web search and global regulatory compliance data checks to extend the reach of EDD and financial crime investigations. Compliance teams and investigators can now sift through the digital ocean of open-source data including public records, corporate filings, court documents, news archives, social media profiles and PEP, sanctions and watchlist data to build customer intelligence.
Using a unique combination of search tools, natural language processing, entity resolution and generative AI, DeepDive enables EDD research to go further and deeper, accessing more sources, in any language or alphabet. Instead of investigators spending hours clicking through search results and manually cross-referencing information, DeepDive’s AI processes hundreds of sources simultaneously and presents EDD reports viewable by timeline, alert type or risk category. Analysts can then interrogate the body of knowledge with the built-in chatbot to get to the heart of the matter, helping them make more informed risk decisions.
The team behind DeepDive is staffed by industry veterans that have previously launched, scaled and exited several fraud investigation and KYC platforms.
“DeepDive addresses the pain points facing compliance teams such as time-intensive manual research, incomplete data, language barriers, false positives, and the challenge of processing vast amounts of information at scale,” said David Pope, COO at DeepDive.
“We’ve now completed a successful six-month beta with investment banks, outsourced EDD providers and financial crime investigators. DeepDive has helped them build deeper intelligence on high-risk customers, in a fraction of the time. Not only are we uncovering intelligence that the manual EDD approach misses, but with the time saved, financial services firms can extend EDD across a wider set of customer transactions.”
DeepDive strengthens EDD by creating multiple search permutations across publicly available data and targeted compliance databases in relevant languages and local search engines. After creating the most exhaustive possible dataset for analysis, entity resolution refines the data pool to remove false positives. Multiple generative AI tools are then used to build a structured intelligence report with full citations to original sources and an audit trail.
The DeepDive report covers personal background, legal issues, financial integrity, compliance history, and key relationships, revealing financial insight, known associates, locations, company linkages, political connections, and criminal activity—all structured for immediate analysis.
