Detailed Review
Napier AI sells screening and monitoring as modules. Client screening covers sanctions, PEPs and adverse media in real time and batch, while transaction monitoring ships with over 100 built-in AML typologies.
Napier Technologies Limited is registered in England and Wales under company number 09901129. The site states the platform is used by more than 150 financial institutions.
Three Ways to Connect
Napier offers an enterprise platform for complex customisation, a plug-and-play version for fast deployment, and APIs for teams that want to keep their existing workflow tools.
Screening and Monitoring Together
Client screening, transaction screening and monitoring share one platform, with a continuous client risk assessment on top. Banking, payments and asset or wealth management are the named industries.
UK Rather Than EU
Napier is a British company, so UK GDPR applies instead of the EU GDPR. For EU institutions this is a third-country question that the sales process should answer.
Limitations to Consider
Napier does not publish prices, and the hosting region is not stated on the pages checked. As a UK company it sits outside the EU, which some EU procurement teams treat differently. Case management depth is less of a focus than at Lucinity.
Who Should Use Napier AI
Banks, payment institutions and wealth managers that want screening and monitoring from a modular vendor and may prefer API-based integration.
