Defensible compliance determinations
Ensure risk classifications, escalations, and exceptions align with written policy. Keep them explainable under audit or exam.
Talk to usVerification after classification, before onboarding
Your screening tools run checks. Flightline verifies the results match your documented policy.
Flightline doesn't run identity checks or sanctions screening. It verifies the data came back correctly and classifications align with policy.
Verify decisions, not redo them
Traditional CDD review takes 2-5 days. Enhanced due diligence can take weeks. Flightline verifies in under an hour.
KYC, KYB, and AML are decision-heavy workflows disguised as checklists
Risk scoring tools output probabilities. Humans make final determinations. Rules are ambiguous and evolving. Audits focus on process, not just outcomes.
As AI and automation enter these workflows (assisting case reviewers, accelerating decisions, handling routine determinations), the question becomes:
Can you explain later why each decision was made?
Common failure patterns
The gaps that create audit findings, regulatory concerns, and defensibility problems.
Inconsistent application of policy
Different analysts apply the same risk criteria differently
Over-reliance on heuristics
Shortcuts and rules of thumb that aren't documented or defensible
Poor documentation of exceptions
Decisions made outside normal process without clear justification
AI usage that can't be explained later
Automated assistance without audit trail of how it influenced decisions
Policy verification for compliance decisions
Flightline tests whether compliance determinations follow policy, and creates evidence that they do.
Flightline's role in compliance
Risk classifications follow policy
Verify that ratings are applied consistently with documented criteria.
Escalations are consistent
Same triggers, same escalation paths. Across analysts and over time.
Exceptions are justified
Every policy exception has documented rationale that stands up to review.
AI assistance doesn't bypass controls
Automated tools augment decisions without undermining accountability.
This is especially important as LLMs assist case reviewers, automation creeps into compliance, and regulators demand clarity, not just throughput.
