Pushing data completeness to 90%

Thirdfort • 2026

Overview

This 6 month project redesigned KYB within Thirdfort. The legacy product was functional but unreliable, with shallow data and poor usability that limited users’ ability to confidently assess business risk. The goal was to replace it with a more trustworthy, interactive platform that provided richer data, clearer workflows, and reduced reliance on exported PDFs.

Problem

The legacy KYB product had two key issues. First, it lacked sufficient data points for users to confidently assess the risk of onboarding a business. Second, the workflow was weak because the PDF output had become the product. Users often exported reports rather than working within the platform, limiting usability, product insight, and interaction with other tools.

Solution

The new KYB product enables fast, reliable business risk reviews within the platform. Company data, directors, ownership structures, and financial signals are brought together in one place. KYC checks on directors and beneficial owners strengthen due diligence, while ownership visualisations make complex company structures easy to understand.

Impact

  • 90% data completeness, up from 30% in legacy

  • Faster risk reviews and case closure

  • Automating KYC on directors & BOs, increased cross sell

  • New elements improved commercial viability

  • Workflows moved from PDF to platform
