Our Story
For a decade, detection technology accelerated. Investigation stayed manual. Every escalated case still required fifteen tabs, hand-pulled evidence, and a hand-written narrative. The main variable was headcount.
In risk and financial crime, every output is acted on. Each one carries regulatory, financial, and reputational consequence. That demanded an engineering standard built for these stakes.
So a team of top risk, compliance and intelligence officers, investigators, sanctions targeters, and AML leaders joined forces to build Tangos. To run the investigation end to end. Autonomously. At the standard examiners demand.
AI is also how Tangos works internally. Every team. Every workflow. The company practices what it sells and leads a lean, agile and intelligent operation.
Our Team
The people who built Tangos sat on the other side of the examiner’s desk. They investigated sanctions targets, ran AML and counter-terrorism financing programs inside tier-one institutions, sat on the operating side of OFAC enforcement, and led financial crime investigations at the volume the regulators actually scrutinize.
That experience is the foundation. The investigation playbooks the model executes were written by the investigators who built them in practice. The accuracy bar was set by the people who know what an examiner expects, because they have been the examiner.
75+ combined years in FinCrime, Sanctions, and Intelligence. 5,000+ regulator investigations led.
