Crypto Forensics & AML Platform

Quantitative tracing of illicit flows, with typologies and risk scoring rather than a wall of transactions.

What we set out to build

To do blockchain investigation quantitatively, at a standard that would stand up in a compliance or law-enforcement context.

What was built

  • A chain tracer with taint propagation
  • Typology detection and risk scoring on top of raw flow data
  • A phased roadmap where each phase is built and tested before the next begins

What it achieves

  • Turns a transaction graph into a ranked set of findings, which is the difference between data and evidence
The hard part: Tracing is easy to do badly: follow every hop and you drown. The work is in taint models that decay sensibly and typologies that catch structure rather than coincidence.

The stack

Python, BSC, graph analysis.

Common questions

How was this built?

This was built through Colabs, our sister company. A founder brought the idea and the domain knowledge, Colabs brought the team, the founder funded the build with a monthly subscription, and they hold equity in the company that resulted. We label every case study, because a studio that publishes its prices and argues the other side of its own comparisons has to be equally precise about its own portfolio.

What state is it in?

Built through phase two. We state that plainly rather than describing everything as production: several things here are deliberately gated, and the reason is usually evidence rather than a missing feature.

Can you build something like this for us?

That is the point of publishing it. The same patterns are in the catalogue at published prices, and you can scope your own version on the plain-English page without contacting us first.

Where to next

If something here is close to what you need, the same patterns are in the catalogue at published prices, or you can describe your version in plain English and get it scoped and priced without talking to anyone.

Want something like this built?

The catalogue prices the patterns behind this work. Describe your version and the engine will scope it, including an allowance for anything nobody has costed.
