A full KYC review takes a compliance team 7-10 business days. The agent we build does the same groundwork in under 10 minutes. That part is easy. The hard part is building it so a regulator accepts the output - and that constraint, not the model, is what decides your architecture. The engineering problem hiding inside "automate KYC" is a routing problem: which decisions go to an LLM, which go to a rules engine, which go to an ML model, and which never leave a human.
