Business model
Per-verification API calls
Effort
A few months

Financial firms struggle to distinguish legitimate government inquiries from sophisticated fakes.

Offer an API that checks request patterns against known fraud markers and jurisdiction rules.

Charge fintechs and banks per verification with volume tiers.

Start with major jurisdiction patterns, then expand coverage.

Risk: Requires ongoing threat intelligence that's costly to maintain.
