Policy drift
Policy and practice stop matching
A threshold gets tuned, a scenario gets switched off, a review step gets skipped under pressure. The written policy never hears about it until an examiner compares the two.

Frequently Asked Questions

Talk to the people who build the agents. We'll answer per capability, yes or no.
It's an AI agent that does the mapping and checking work behind a compliance function: linking obligations to policy and controls, testing decisions against those controls and drafting reports. Zara Trustwell doesn't hold the officer role. Your MLRO or compliance officer stays named, accountable and in charge of every sign-off.
No. Zara prepares and checks. Your MLRO reviews her drafts, approves controls and signs every report. Exceptions on medium and high risk always go to a person. A kill switch turns Zara off without touching your other systems.
No. She prepares drafts with each figure traced to its source. A named person on your team reviews, signs off and submits through your usual channel, such as goAML, FINnet or the UKFIU portal.
Zara works with the obligations you load or approve for each jurisdiction where you operate. FluxForce focuses on India, the UAE, the Philippines, Kuwait, Jamaica, Mauritius, Kenya, the US and the UK. Your compliance team confirms how each obligation is read before it becomes a control.
Zara maps one policy area, checks decisions and drafts a report, but nothing changes in your live controls or filings. You compare her findings with your last internal review and decide what to switch on afterwards.
Your policies and procedures, an obligation register if you have one, and decision logs from screening, monitoring and case systems. Past audit findings and examiner letters help her find the gaps your supervisor already cares about.
FluxForce runs as SaaS, on-premise or hybrid, built on Microsoft Azure. We agree data residency and which components run inside your environment during deployment design, before any data moves.
