About Trade Auditor

Built by Trade Finance practitioners.
For Trade Finance practitioners.

Trade Auditor is the product of senior Trade Finance and Compliance specialists from multiple global banks who lived inside the back office for two decades — examining presentations under UCP 600, ISBP 821 and the ICC 250 LC Discrepancy rules, screening counterparties under OFAC / EU / UN sanctions, and chasing TBML red flags through bills of lading, vessel manifests, and HS-code patterns.

The pain we set out to solve

Documentary examiners and compliance officers do work that is mostly mechanical, repetitive, and yet unforgiving — one missed clause and a bank can lose its repayment, miss a sanctions hit, or facilitate trade-based money laundering. Existing tools are fragmented: an OCR vendor here, a sanctions screen there, a spreadsheet of rules everywhere. Real banks still rely on senior examiners reading PDFs at midnight.

What we built

A unified platform that classifies 45+ trade-finance document types, extracts every clause with click-to-highlight verification, runs UCP / ISBP / 250-rule examination, and chains optional TBML / AML / sanctions / vessel / pricing screening — all auditable, all explainable, and all owned by you. The three independent modules — Workability, Document Checking, and Compliance / TBML — mirror exactly how a senior examiner thinks.

Our principles
  • Defensible: every finding cites UCP / ISBP / a 250-master rule.
  • Audit-grade: every automatic and manual step is logged.
  • No black boxes: examiner reasoning is shown, not hidden.
  • Banker-first UX: examiners shouldn't have to learn new keyboard shortcuts.
  • Right tool, right moment: pre-issuance, post-presentation, compliance — separately runnable.
  • Your data, your reports: no cross-tenant leakage, ever.
