Alessa is an integrated AML compliance and fraud management platform built for banks, credit unions, casinos and gaming operators, fintech companies, cryptocurrency exchanges, money services businesses, lenders, insurers, and payment processors. It consolidates the core building blocks of a regulatory compliance program into a single system, including identity verification and Know Your Customer (KYC) checks, watchlist and sanctions/PEP screening, transaction monitoring, risk scoring, case management, and automated regulatory reporting.

The platform gives compliance teams a 360-degree view of client risk through a unified dashboard, helping them detect suspicious activity, reduce false positives, and manage investigations in one workflow rather than across disconnected tools. Alessa also supports continuous controls monitoring and procurement fraud monitoring for non-financial enterprises that need to detect internal fraud and policy violations.

Alessa is ISO 27001:2013 and PCI certified, and has been recognized in industry lists such as RegTech100, AI FinTech100, and FinCrime50. Customers span regulated financial institutions and gaming operators that need to meet AML and counter-fraud obligations across multiple jurisdictions.
