Waters Rankings 2026: Best AML compliance solution provider—KYCP
KYCP wins best AML compliance solution provider in the 2026 Waters Rankings for its KYCP product.
Overview
KYCP is designed to centralize firms’ client lifecycle management functions, automating know-your-customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) workflows. It addresses challenges around fragmented data, manual inefficiencies, and slow onboarding, and features a real-time, no-code engine reducing human error and enabling instant adaptation to evolving regulations. This streamlines due diligence processes while ensuring continuous risk oversight.
The solution
This orchestration layer consolidates data into a single record while the no-code, real-time risk engine automates scoring and workflows to replace manual tasks. Outreach tools automate onboarding flows, removing follow-ups and reducing onboarding times by up to 55% while maintaining perpetual KYC compliance.
Winning the best AML compliance solution provider category validates our mission to deliver tangible benefits to clients. It reflects our focus on digital transformation and ‘first-time-right’ onboarding. This award reinforces our commitment to no-code tools that empower teams to scale effectively while strengthening regulator confidence
Kristoff Zammit Ciantar, founder and CEO, KYCP
Secret sauce
According to KYCP, its biggest USP is its configuration studio that allows clients to adapt the entire policy through a no-code interface. It enables non-technical users to update workflows and policies instantly, adapting the real-time risk orchestration that automatically recalculates scores as data is ingested. A central console integrates embedded outreach, automated screening, and document management into a single interface.
Recent milestones
Recent releases of the KYCP platform include a Self-Check-In module for remote onboarding and a Pay-As-You-Go token system for flexible consumption. The platform also added embedded screening for politically exposed persons (PEPs), sanctions, and adverse media, plus Companies House UK integration. A new Data Retention module further automates record management to ensure compliance with global data governance standards.
Product roadmap
Future enhancements will focus on advanced automation and AI-assisted processes to improve efficiency. Key roadmap items include digital signatures, document verification, and automated identification and verification. The firm is also exploring AI-driven features like adverse media summarization and predictive effort forecasting to support human decision-making.
