Yellowstone Fintech scales AML for growth

How Yellowstone Fintech worked with us on scales AML for growth.

SAR filing time halved
We went from an overnight batch to instant screening without losing a single true match. It changed how fast we can onboard.Ximena Novak, VP Sales, Yellowstone Fintech

The challenge

Sanctions screening ran on overnight batches, so onboarding decisions lagged a full day and the screening lists were perpetually out of date against fast-moving designations.

Our approach

Screening moved to a real-time API against a unified, continuously refreshed watchlist, with explainable match scoring so analysts could clear or escalate hits in seconds rather than minutes.

The result

False positives fell by 62% within two quarters while true-positive detection held steady, and the analyst team cleared its backlog for the first time in two years.
