Xapien will use the new capital to continue to redefine how businesses understand their third parties, enabling organisations of any size to carry out comprehensive due diligence in minutes, not days.

Xapien will do so by accelerating the development of our next-generation entity resolution engine, which includes advanced native language processing, integrations with top data suppliers, new enterprise features, and a continuous monitoring solution for “perpetual Know Your Customer (KYC).” Additionally, we will use the funds to continue expanding into new sectors, such as financial services and large corporate partners, and grow our footprint in the US.

Xapien rapid, fully automated background research reports help clients assess risks and opportunities across their third-party network in minutes. This reduces their reliance on slow and costly manual research – whether in-house or via risk consulting advisors – and massively expands the knowledge companies can build up about their third parties, leading to better, faster business. Such a profound shift in the compliance market has not been seen since the release of database companies like WorldCheck in 1999.

Since then, Xapien launched a co-development agreement with one of the world’s largest law firms to develop the world’s first large language model AI tool for AML compliance in the legal industry. The tool will reduce average onboarding times from weeks to hours and reduce risk exposure by better deploying critical human-led compliance resources. In the past 15 months, we have secured engagements with Magic Circle, Silver Circle and AmLaw 100 law firms, as well as major players in risk consulting and private wealth. In the philanthropic sector, we have grown our client base by 300% over the past 18 months.

“We founded Xapien to bring transparency to business relationships, so that organisations of all sizes can truly know who they are working with. This investment will not only accelerate our cutting-edge natural language processing and entity resolution technologies but also position us at the forefront of a fundamental shift in compliance. We are transforming due diligence from a time-consuming, manual process into an efficient, precise, and comprehensive solution. Xapien is setting new standards in compliance, helping organisations worldwide to navigate complex regulatory environments with ease and confidence, ultimately creating better business practices and stronger ethical standards.” Chris Green, CEO of Xapien said.

“Xapien’s innovative technology is gaining impressive commercial traction in an exciting market, and it has already proven its value in existing sectors. With our support, Xapien is poised to expand into new areas, enhancing its product, growing its team, and extending its geographical reach. We believe in the strength and scalability of Xapien’s team and look forward to accelerating their growth and success.” James Savage, Partner at YFM said.
