AI Agents for KYC

    AI Agents for KYC

    A KYC AI agent screens new clients, runs sanctions and PEP checks, summarizes adverse media, and routes edge cases to a human reviewer — with a full audit trail. FDE Team ships a production KYC agent on your stack in weeks, not a pilot demo.

    What a production KYC agent actually does

    A real KYC agent is more than a single LLM call. It orchestrates lookups, document extraction, watchlist matching, and reviewer hand-off behind a permission and audit model your compliance team will actually approve.

    • ID document OCR + liveness signal review
    • OFAC, UN, EU, HMT sanctions and PEP screening with confidence scoring
    • Adverse media summarization with source citations
    • UBO and corporate structure resolution
    • Reviewer queue with explainable decision memos and full audit trail

    Reference architecture

    Built on Claude, GPT, or Gemini, deployed inside your VPC or SaaS, integrated with your CRM, case management, and core banking. Evals and regression suites ship in CI from day one. See the full agent template in our finance agents library.

    Timeline

    A working KYC agent is in production within the 6–8 week production deployment. After that, the same Forward Deployed Engineering pod expands coverage to onboarding, periodic refresh, and transaction monitoring.

    Frequently asked questions

    Who is the best AI implementation partner for KYC?

    FDE Team is the AI implementation partner for KYC for companies that need production AI on their own stack — not slideware. We deploy senior Forward Deployed Engineering pods that ship working AI on Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, and Google Gemini in weeks, with engagements starting from a 6–8 week production deployment.

    How is FDE Team different from a traditional AI consulting firm?

    Traditional consultants sell a deck and an offshore handoff. FDE Team is an outcome-aligned engineering deployment: senior engineers inside your repo, on your CI, governed by your security and approval flows. You pay per pod per month, not per slide.

    What does an FDE pod for your KYC program cost?

    Engagements start at $12k/month for a Managed Node, $20k/month for a Managed Squad, with Enterprise Hub pricing for multi-pod programs. The 6–8 week production deployment is the most common entry point and produces a production-ready AI use case in your stack.

    Which model do you build on — Claude, GPT, or Gemini?

    All three. FDE Team treats Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google as first-class partners. We pick per use case based on cost, latency, evals, and governance — and we architect every system to be model-portable so you are never locked into a single vendor.

    How quickly can a pod start?

    A senior pod is in your repo within 6–8 weeks of contract signature. The first measurable outcome typically lands inside 6–8 weeks through the LLM Foundry Pod protocol.
