“Can vendor-neutral data orchestration become the compliance control plane for every regulated financial product?”
Alloy started in 2015 as an identity-decisioning API to help banks and fintechs orchestrate KYC vendors during onboarding. Post-2021 Series C, the company expanded across the customer lifecycle — adding transaction monitoring, perpetual KYC/KYB, and AML case management — repositioning as a full identity/fraud/compliance platform. Its most recent push is embedded finance oversight (giving sponsor banks a dashboard across fintech partners) and agentic AI to automate case review.
Alloy uses Alloy for KYC and identity verification.
Alloy was founded by Tommy Nicholas, Laura Spiekerman and Charles Hearn and is founded in 2015, headquartered in New York, NY, USA.
Alloy has raised $216.7M in total (latest round: Series C, 2021; valuation: $1.35B (2021)).
