KYB Agent is a powerful tool that leverages AI to automate the process of gathering extensive business details and customer reviews from multiple online sources, designed to streamline your KYB procedures, saving you time and resources while enhancing the accuracy and thoroughness of your background checks.

How KYB Agent Works:
The KYB Agent utilizes advanced AI algorithms to scour the internet for relevant information on businesses, including:

  • Business verification and Ultimate Business Owners (UBOs)
  • Customer reviews
  • Industry analysis
  • Social media presence
  • Website and contact information

By automating the data collection process, KYB Agent eliminates the need for manual research across multiple platforms, ensuring a comprehensive and efficient KYB process.
