Long-horizon agentic AI runs compliance, audit-ready by default.
The Layerup compliance agent runs KYC and onboarding, clears AML and sanctions alerts, prepares SAR and investigation packets, handles complaints, and assembles audit-ready evidence — not a one-shot pass, but a continuous run that works each case uninterrupted for hours or days with controls on every action.
One-shot agents answer. Long-horizon agents finish.
Most AI agents are one-shot: one prompt, one response, no memory, no obligation to finish. Layerup agents are long-horizon — each owns a workflow end to end and stays on it, uninterrupted, for hours or days until the work is done.
One prompt in, one output out. The run is over in seconds — whatever state the work is in.
One workflow worked continuously, for hours or days, until it is actually finished.
Stateless per call. Everything learned about the case is forgotten between steps.
Persistent working memory of the whole case — every document, finding, and decision carried forward.
Guesses or stalls when an input is incomplete. Someone has to notice and re-prompt.
Requests the missing document, follows up, waits for it to land, and resumes exactly where it left off.
Returns a response. Acting on it — updating the core system, moving the queue — is still human work.
Reads from and writes back to your systems of record throughout the run, every action logged for audit.
A label, a draft, a score — an input to someone else's work.
Finished, decision-ready work with rationale and citations attached, staged for human approval.
A one-shot agent can screen a name against a sanctions list. It can't clear the alert — gather the corroborating evidence, test the false-positive hypothesis, request the missing documentation and wait for it, document the rationale, and assemble the SAR packet before the filing deadline. The long-horizon compliance agent works each case to a filed, audit-ready outcome.
Intake to filing — executed, with evidence.
Every stage below is the same agent's continuous run, from onboarding and alert intake to filing and write-back. Compliance analysts and officers approve, supervise exceptions, and own outcomes.
- 01Onboarding / alert intake
- 02Identity & data verification
- 03Screening & criteria match
- 04Evidence assembly
- 05Case / SAR packaging
- 06Filing, write-back & audit trail
Six stages. One governed continuous run.
KYC, screening, investigation, complaints, refresh, audit evidence — the same compliance agent executes every stage below in one continuous, governed run.
Open accounts the right way.
The compliance agent intakes applications, verifies identity and documents, runs KYC / CIP and beneficial-ownership checks, and stages clean files for approval.
- 01Application and document intake
- 02Identity and document verification
- 03KYC / CIP screening
- 04Beneficial-ownership collection
- 05Risk-rating input preparation

The agent triages screening and transaction-monitoring alerts, gathers context, dispositions clear false positives, and escalates true hits with a documented rationale.
- 01Sanctions / PEP / watchlist screening
- 02Transaction-monitoring alert triage
- 03Context and history gathering
- 04False-positive disposition support
- 05Escalation with reasoning trace
Regulator-ready packets, assembled by the agent.
The agent assembles investigation files, summarizes activity, and prepares SAR / CTR narratives with citations to the underlying evidence for analyst approval.
- 01Investigation file assembly
- 02Activity summarization
- 03SAR / CTR narrative drafting
- 04Evidence citation and linking
- 05Filing timeline tracking
Handle complaints with a defensible record.
The agent classifies complaints, assembles account context, drafts responses with regulatory citations, and tracks resolution against required timelines.
- 01Complaint classification and intake
- 02Account-context assembly
- 03Response drafting with citations
- 04Regulatory timeline tracking
- 05Resolution logging

The agent runs periodic KYC refresh and customer due-diligence reviews, collects updated documentation, and flags discrepancies for analyst review.
- 01Periodic review scheduling
- 02Updated documentation collection
- 03CDD / EDD refresh support
- 04Discrepancy detection
- 05Re-rating input preparation
Audit-ready by default.
The agent writes results back into your compliance systems, maintains complete evidence trails, and samples outputs against your standards with continuous tuning.
- 01Compliance-system write-back
- 02Complete evidence trail per action
- 03Audit packet assembly
- 04Sample-based QA scoring
- 05Continuous improvement loop
The metrics compliance leaders manage.
Layerup is measured on onboarding cycle time, alert clearance, SAR prep time, audit readiness, and regulatory SLA attainment — not on tokens, prompts, or messages.

04Complete, evidence-linked records on every action.
Regulatory SLA attainment
05Meet filing and response deadlines consistently.
Complaint resolution time
06Handle and document complaints end to end.
Coverage consistency
07Apply policy and rules uniformly across the book.
Cost per review
08Lower handling cost across screening and QA.
Exception escalation accuracy
09Route the right cases to the right reviewer.
Move compliance work from doing to approving.
Deploy the compliance agent on one queue — KYC onboarding, alert triage, or SAR preparation. Prove the cycle-time and audit-readiness improvement, then expand.
