Strise partners with Kyckr to automate KYB beyond document retrieval
Oslo, 6th of March – Strise, the leader in AML automation, has announced a strategic integration with Kyckr, a trusted provider of real-time registry data. This partnership redefines Know Your Business (KYB) verification, moving beyond simple document retrieval to instant verification, automated discrepancy detection, and seamless KYB workflows, reducing onboarding times from days to minutes.
KYB that delivers answers, not just documents
Most KYB solutions claim automation but stop at document retrieval, leaving compliance teams with the burden of manually comparing records, identifying inconsistencies, and chasing missing information. The Strise x Kyckr integration changes that.
By embedding Kyckr’s real-time registry data into Strise’s AML solutions, compliance teams can instantly retrieve official company records from over 300 global registries. Instead of relying on manual checks, Strise automatically cross-checks records against customer declarations and internal databases, flagging discrepancies in real time.
This eliminates the time-consuming task of document verification, allowing compliance teams to make faster, more confident decisions. Businesses operating across multiple jurisdictions, from the UK to the US and beyond, can now verify entities with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency.
“This integration is a game-changer for compliance teams," said Edward Bragg, Partner Lead at Strise. “Instead of just collecting documents, we’re connecting the dots—giving analysts instant clarity on who they’re doing business with. This is KYB without the guesswork.”
Instant verification, built into your KYB workflow
When compliance teams search for a company in Strise, they gain access to an analyst-ready KYB checklist, pre-populated with data sourced and harmonised from thousands of records. Now, with the Kyckr partnership, real-time verification is built directly into the workflow, making compliance even more seamless.
For jurisdictions requiring third-party verification, such as the UK, Strise connects directly to Companies House, enabling instant company detail verification. Across the EU and beyond, compliance teams can access trusted registry data from over 300 global sources via Kyckr, ensuring seamless verification no matter the jurisdiction.
With one click, Strise pulls fresh registry data, compares it to existing records, and automatically flags discrepancies. Analysts can review and resolve issues instantly, reinforcing trust in the data while eliminating manual bottlenecks. This reduces operational costs and allows teams to focus on what really matters: onboarding customers faster and with confidence.
There’s no longer a need to juggle multiple tools or switch between systems. Everything, including third-party verification, is consolidated in one place, making compliance more scalable, efficient, and accurate.
“Regulatory pressure is growing, and businesses need a smarter way to manage KYB”, said Steve Lamb, Chief Operating Officer at Kyckr. “With Kyckr’s best-in-class registry data and Strise’s KYB solutions, we’re making compliance faster, more accurate, and truly automated.”

PwC Norway selects Strise to automate AML processes, significantly reducing hours of manual work
Leading anti-money laundering (AML) automation company, Strise (www.strise.ai) today announces that it has signed PwC Norway (www.pwc.no), the Norwegian firm in the world-leading professional services network, as a new client. By adopting Strise’s AML Automation Cloud, PwC Norway is set to enhance its AML processes and save significant hours of manual work annually from day one. This will reduce costs and ensure comprehensive compliance across its operations.
Streamlining workflows and reducing manual efforts, Strise’s AML Automation Cloud enables enterprises like PwC Norway to easily navigate AML compliance. By automating the sourcing and triangulation of AML data, it provides pre-populated, analyst-ready insights that enhance efficiency for the analyst teams.
PwC Norway’s teams will be able to improve processes such as AML data management, client onboarding, and ongoing due diligence within the AML Automation Cloud. Strise simplifies operations by reducing the need for multiple data vendor agreements and various software tools, providing a central system for the organisation—from engagement teams conducting pre-screening to the risk and quality department managing full KYC (Know Your Customer).
Moreover, global financial crime costs banks around the world $2.1 trillion each year. The banks have only kept up by allocating ever-increasing resources to performing manual processes, an approach that is simply no longer scalable. Strise’s AML Automation Cloud turns the tide on this - combining information on persons, roles, and networks into one unified, future-proof data model by sourcing and triangulating region-specific data from third-party providers so businesses no longer have to.
Marit Rødevand, CEO and co-founder of Strise, says: “Securing PwC Norway as a client is a tremendous achievement for Strise. The Strise AML Automation Cloud is specifically designed to alleviate the burden of time-consuming and costly AML processes for large organisations like PwC Norway, empowering them to focus on what truly matters - delivering excellence to their clients.
Already a partner to 70% of the Nordic region’s top-tier banks, Strise now provides AML automation to the Norwegian contingent of one of the world’s leading professional services firms in PwC Norway, to further diversify the scope of Strise’s solutions.
This follows its Atomico-led $10.8mn Series A funding round in September 2023, from which Strise has grown to 50 employees and opened a London office. The company - recently named in Fast Company’s 2024 Most Innovative Companies list - has now significantly expanded its data model, providing insights on over 1 billion international entities and 11 million private individuals.

Oslo, 2th of July - Anti-Money Laundering (AML) automation company Strise (www.strise.ai) today announces a substantial partnership with the Nordic financial group Storebrand (www.storebrand.no/en). Storebrand, founded in 1767, is joining forces with Strise - recently named in Fast Company’s 2024 Most Innovative Companies list - to strategically integrate AML automation solutions across its portfolio of about 55,000 business customers and 2,2 million retail customers in all business areas, including insurance, pension funds, banking, and asset management.
The partnership will enable Storebrand to enhance its AML processes with Strise’s integrated AML Automation Cloud. By addressing traditional AML challenges such as data management and workflow inefficiencies, Storebrand will reduce workload and improve efficiency, allowing analysts to focus on critical decision-making.
This milestone deal comes as Strise has shifted its strategy over the past 18 months, favouring more automation and exposing the data layer in its AML Automation Cloud through API solutions, which are continuously updated with comprehensive customer and regulatory data. Using an advanced graph model and AI, Strise’s AML Automation Cloud seamlessly consolidates and stitches together disparate data into a unified model, reducing the burden of managing extensive datasets while enhancing data accuracy, workflows and reliability.

Strise’s innovative approach and unwavering commitment to excellence resonate perfectly with our strategic objectives of combating economic crime. ”
In a report by PwC on EMEA AML, 38% of EMEA respondents highlighted AML compliance pressures as the largest challenge facing financial institutions. Within this same group, a third of respondents noted data management, quality, and automation of manual processes as the most significant practical challenges. As a result, half of the asset managers surveyed were looking to allocate more than 10% of their budget to digital tools, like Strise, by 2026.
Moreover, according to PwC, Nordic financial institutions are the most interested (94%) in implementing AI into AML operations. Within this context, Storebrand recognises Strise as a key emerging player in the AML compliance industry.

Sanctions result: Managers, this one's for you!
.gif)
Sometimes less is more, and sometimes more is more 🤔
The more feedback we gather from Strise users, the clearer it becomes that the ability to customise the data Strise fetches for its users remains one of the biggest reasons compliance teams choose Strise.
Team managers, with the latest update, you can now set the criteria for the sanctions that Strise matches. This means that instead of just casting out a wide net to see what Strise collects, you can tailor matches based on your company's specific risk policy. Simply put, it's giving you control over the parameters of sanctions flagged, rather than Strise making that default decision for you.
In Sanctions settings, you can adjust the percentages and experiment with the data results you see. Once you've selected the percentage you're happy with, the change will be reflected at the team level.
Data and workflows working together effectively — that's the Strise effect you can expect.
Mini demo: Ownership
The future is not AI. Okay, that was said for effect. But really it isn't. The future is AI in the hands of very smart people. While many of us might know that, it's still a common assumption we're working out of the AI zeitgeist.
At Strise, we aim to build tech that finds the perfect symbiosis between technology and human ingenuity. And if our customers feel empowered in their day-to-day jobs, that's where we know we've won.
You might have noticed two updates already this year about Strise's ownership feature, so why another one? While Strise's ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) maps are a hallmark of what makes our product so unique, they've needed constant improvement to land at the place we are now. With confidence we've eradicated the frustrations and pain points of working with ownership charts for our customers. They now have full access to unprecedented data but they have full autonomy to add, edit, delete or comment on that data. One update is automatically changed for the team, making workflows super, super simple and efficient.
This is definitely something that is better experienced by yourself so we've put together a 2-minute all-access demo that runs through all of Strise's ownership features.
👉 Try the ownership demo and enjoy!
New: Enhanced editing capabilities
.gif)
Yes, yes, we realise it wasn't that long ago when we released our edit company ownership feature. And while most of Europe took a summer break, our team worked hard on significantly enhancing the editing capabilities of our UBO (Ultimate Beneficial Owner) maps.
Now, you can add comments when editing a company's owner. The comments will appear both in your Strise Review and the PDF report.
Solving even the tiniest pain point is top priority to us at Strise. We aim to listen closely to our customers and gather intel on how they're using Strise and what could be improved. Our product and tech teams then collaborate to find smart solutions to ease every step of the AML process. Tedious, manual AML processes are a thing of the past. We're delivering an AML intelligent system that is intuitive and effective.
We have a lot more to share about what we've been up to, watch this space.
Company ownership: Edit away!
.gif)
Ain't nobody got time for outdated data 🥱
We've all heard some breaking news and reached for our phones to search Wikipedia for more about the person in question. It's expected that even if the news is minutes old, the entry will be updated. In fact, every two seconds someone is updating a Wikipedia page.
Ownership is pretty important at Strise. Our UBO maps are our signature feature for a reason. That's why it's imperative that our users should be able to amend and edit the ownership structures of a company the minute they get new information.
Strise's latest feature, Edit Ownership, does just that. Now you can make reliable and efficient edits to ownership information and have a centralised location for updating data; streamlining the process of ownership. Quick and accurate data management is key to making sound business decisions, especially with no loss to your workflow. Nice!
Automation: Less work, more Strise!

Strise Reviews have always onboarded new customers in a fraction of the speed it used to take. With a few clicks, you could fetch the PEP, Sanction and credit score of a company. But in the age of automation, that's 3 steps too many. With Strise's advanced data model, we knew we could do better 💯
Strise Reviews are now even more efficient! When you start a Strise Review, a pre-populated checklist is immediately filled with all the data you need to onboard and review a new customer. You simply get more information in less time. Not only is it just super fast and efficient, it gives you a complete picture of the customer you're reviewing. Automating these checks gives you more information than you might need but in turn, gives you a new standard for onboarding customers.
Add Strise's product update page to your RSS to keep up with the new ways we're automating the KYC process.
PEP & Sanctions Matching: Fewer false positives
Fewer false positives? Yes 🥳
Some of Strise's best features don't always make it to the top of an update page. But we want to let you now two reasons why a Strise search yields fewer false positives than any other search.
One of the latest Strise's latest update now extends filters for PEPs by full date of birth (if available), reducing the number of false positives when name and birth years identical. By leveraging full date of birth information, the Strise system can more accurately identify politically exposed people and prevent regulatory compliance issues.
We've also improved how we match subsets with regards to names. Many users received false positives when a the full names of potentially sanctioned people differed from list to list. This often happened if an individual's initial or middle name was, or wasn't, included in a sanction list. Strise takes care of those sneaky changes by being intelligent enough to know when initials or middle names are omitted.
UI: New Settings modal

There's been a bit of spring cleaning behind the scenes in the Strise system 🧼
You might've already noticed it but we're excited to announce that Settings has had a refresh.
Now taking up less space, the new Settings modal has been streamlined to provide you with an even more intuitive user experience. You'll find all of the same Settings options as before, only now, they're even easier to navigate and understand. Whatever tweaking you need to do to your account, the upgraded Settings modal makes it a lot easier to do.
Enjoy the new look and feel! Get in touch if there's anything else we can do to make your Strise experience even better.
Tech: Metadata in just one hover

Quick access to accurate information is crucial to making business decisions. Strise's latest update gives you more detailed information about why a company or person has been sanctioned 🔎
The data has always been available but now, we've just made it even more convenient by displaying the metadata as a hover view. Simply hover your cursor over the sanction alerts and you'll have immediate access to the detailed information you need, eliminating the need for tedious manual searching or sifting through endless pages.
The new feature is designed explicitly with our users' needs in mind, providing a user-friendly way to access detailed information quickly without compromising our platform's reliability and accuracy. Our goal is to make the process of accessing detailed sanction information as simple and efficient as possible, enabling you to focus on tasks that matter.
Sanctions can be complex, and Strise has been designed to simplify the entire process. We know that the more access you have to information, in the quickest way, will inform the decisions you make. In the end, those informed decisions put a stop to money laundering and fincrime attempts.
