jurisdictions with registry coverage
1,300+
AML, PEP, and sanctions sources
15
canonical role tags per entity
25%
default UBO ownership threshold
How it works
Six steps from link to compliance verdict.
1
Initiate
Send a Magic Link or trigger via API. No SDK required on the business's end.
2
Registry Check
Hypersign pulls the official registry record: legal name, status, address, and incorporation details across 189+ jurisdictions.
3
Ownership & Officers
UBOs and officers are extracted from the registry. Corporate shareholders spawn nested KYB sub-sessions automatically.
4
Documents
Key corporate docs are collected in the hosted flow. OCR cross-checks each field against the registry and flags inconsistencies.
5
AML Screening
The entity and every owner or officer are screened in parallel against 1,300+ sanctions, PEP, and adverse-media sources.
6
Decision
A signed webhook delivers the verdict with full registry, AML, and KYC results. Audit trail included, regulator-export ready.

What's included
Every KYB check. One orchestrated flow.
Business Registry Lookup
Access official company records from registries in 189+ countries. Covers incorporation status, company type, registered address, and tax identification. EU, UK, US (per-state), and major LatAm jurisdictions on day one.
UBO & Beneficial Ownership
Automatically extract the beneficial ownership structure, resolve nested entities, and identify every individual who owns 25%+ or exercises effective control.
Officers & Governance Roles
Map every director, secretary, signatory, chairman, and founder alongside ownership data. 15 canonical role tags, each individually configurable for KYC requirements.
Linked KYC
Every role requiring KYC spawns a child user-verification session: ID capture, passive liveness, face match. The parent KYB case waits until every required child resolves, then aggregates to a final verdict.
Supporting Documents
Certificate of incorporation, articles of association, shareholder register, proof of registered address, collected inside the hosted flow. OCR-extracted fields are cross-checked against the registry record.
AML & Sanctions Screening
AML screening fires automatically against 1,300+ sources: OFAC, EU, UN, UK sanctions; PEPs; adverse media; enforcement actions. The company is screened as an entity; every owner and officer is screened as a person, in parallel.
Case Management & Audit Trail
Every KYB case is tracked end-to-end with task assignment, status history, and a complete timestamped audit trail ready for regulator review.
