    Our story

    Built by engineers frustrated with enterprise compliance tools

    PrimeGuardia was built by engineers who spent weeks integrating expensive sanctions screening vendors—only to drown in false positives and opaque pricing.

    We built the platform we wished existed: self-service signup, transparent plans, a developer-friendly API, and screening accurate enough that your compliance team actually trusts the results.

    Why teams switch

    Why compliance teams switch

    • Analysts spend hours reviewing obvious false positives
    • Non-Latin names create missed matches
    • Legacy providers are slow and expensive
    • Audit trails are difficult to explain

    The cost of doing nothing

    Every missed match is a potential regulatory incident. Every false positive burns analyst capacity you can't get back before the next audit.

    • One missed match can trigger a regulator inquiry or fine
    • False positives pile up until the next audit with no time to recover
