Reduce manual KYC reviews without lowering standards
Steward applies AI for KYC compliance to validate identity documents for format, completeness, and recency, reducing manual checks while maintaining regulatory defensibility. Reviewers are supported with extracted data, clear validation status, and evidence-linked decisions.
KYC across jurisdictions and languages
Steward supports global KYC verification, analysing identity documents in multiple languages and formats. Jurisdictional acceptability checks ensure documents meet local regulatory requirements, helping teams manage cross-border investor onboarding with confidence.
Audit-ready KYC decisions
Every KYC decision is logged with supporting documents, extracted data, timestamps, AI auditability, and reviewer rationale, supporting internal oversight, audits, and regulatory enquiries.
Redefined individual KYC verification
Validate passports, national ID cards, and other identity documents as part of onboarding and lifecycle reviews, with AI-assisted checks for format, expiry, and consistency.
Extract structured data from identity and address documentation in any language, highlight discrepancies, and surface missing or outdated information for reviewer action.
Verify individual identities by corroborating KYC information against independent data sources, such as credit bureaus, electoral rolls, and trusted third-party databases.
Monitor identity documents over time and trigger reviews when documents expire or risk indicators change.
Embedded KYC as part of a complete AML compliance program
Steward’s KYC verification capabilities integrate seamlessly with corporate verification (KYB), screening, risk scoring, ongoing monitoring, and periodic reviews. Individual KYC is treated as a foundational control within the wider AML framework, not a standalone checklist.
