## About the product

SectID is an Africa-focused compliance platform for banks, fintechs, SACCOs, payment service providers, telcos, and government teams running customer onboarding and AML compliance operations.

Key capabilities include:
- **KYC identity verification** with document capture, **liveness checks**, and **biometric matching**, including support for **Kenyan, Ugandan, Rwandan, and Nigerian IDs**.
- **KYB business onboarding** with **registry lookups**, **UBO traversal**, and beneficial ownership disclosure (local business registers where available).
- **Sanctions, PEP, and adverse-media screening** with match scoring plus **case routing** for reviews and escalations.
- **Transaction monitoring** with configurable rules, suspicious-activity alerts, and **SAR packaging**.

Applicants can submit documents via a **hosted link**, **SDK**, or **REST API**. The risk engine can recommend **approve, review, or reject** with rule attribution; the platform records actions in an **append-only audit log** and supports consent logs, DSR workflows, retention enforcement, and regulator-ready exports.

Available via **Web dashboard** and a **versioned REST API**, with **TypeScript, React Native, iOS, and Android SDKs**, plus **HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks** and a sandbox mode.

Designed for regulated African onboarding and compliance teams that need a single workflow for KYC, KYB, AML screening, case management, and audit evidence. It is notable for its Africa-first positioning, including jurisdiction-aware routing for identity, registry, and storage providers, and a compliance artifact pack referenced for regulators such as **CBK**, **ODPC**, and **CMA**. SectID provides compliance technology and decision support; final regulatory responsibility remains with the customer.
