Trustinera AI vs Refinitiv World-Check
World-Check gives you the risk data. Trustinera AI tells you what to do with it — and documents every decision.
Refinitiv World-Check is the market leader in KYC and third-party risk data — PEPs, sanctions, adverse media. It is a data feed, not an operational platform. Trustinera AI is the intelligence layer that ingests risk data, categorises transactions, scores events in real-time, and generates the FCA audit trail your examiners expect.
