Always know where to look next.

Akintic helps legal, compliance, and risk teams build an initial understanding of companies and counterparties before engagement, review, or escalation.

Bring relevant public information, signals and sources into one structured company Profile.

Finding information is easy. Working out what matters isn't.

Step 1: A company needs reviewing before you proceed.

You search their name.
Check the website.
Look at corporate records.
Search the news.
Review regulatory information.
Cross-check directors and entities.

Step 2: Then comes the harder part

Is this the right company?
Is the information up-to-date
Is it still material or relevant?
What’s missing?
What needs further investigation?

Starts with company intelligence. Escalate from there.

Akintic supports initial company screening and helps identify where deeper legal, regulatory, compliance or specialist investigation may be justified.

It supports professional judgement. It doesn’t replace it.

Akintic helps you build context before drawing conclusions.

Confirm who you're looking at

Establish the company identity and operating context before drawing conclusions from public records or adverse information.

Understand ownership and control

See available information about parent companies, ownership, leadership and corporate structure.

Find relevant public signals

Surface legal, regulatory, reputational and other public information that may warrant attention.

Separate signal from noise

Use company context and supporting sources to assess whether a finding appears relevant to the business you’re reviewing.

See what's missing

Akintic helps identify where information couldn’t be established, appears inconsistent or conflicts across available sources.

Know what to investigate next

Turn initial company research into practical questions and areas for deeper review with Decision Support.

But when would legal, compliance and risk teams use Akintic?

Before engaging a third party

Start with a structured company picture

Research the company, its ownership, leadership, and relevant public signals before contracts progress or deeper checks begin.

Akintic can help identify questions or watchpoints that deserve attention earlier in the process.

During a periodic review

Relationships change. So do companies

The company you reviewed previously may now have different ownership, leadership, operations, or public issues around it.

A fresh Akintic Profile can help teams understand what has changed before deciding whether anything requires further review.

When something needs a closer look

Build context before escalating

An adverse article. A legal matter. A change in ownership. Conflicting company information.

Akintic can help place an initial signal into the wider company context and give teams direction for further investigation with Decision Support.

Start with a company name

A signal is only useful when you know what to do with it.

Akintic helps teams move from finding information to understanding what may deserve further attention.

It brings together company context, relevant public signals, information gaps and sources, with suggested questions to help guide the next stage of review.

Akintic doesn’t determine whether a company passes or fails. It helps your team arrive at the next stage knowing what to question.

Ownership and controls
Regulatory history
Potentially relevant legal matters
Conflicting company identities
Adverse media requiring verification
Leadership or corporate changes
Missing or inconsistent information
