Your rules, not ours
Organisations should decide what they require of a counterparty. We make those rules consistent and visible.
About
We think vetting decisions should be explainable.
Traustis is an independent, founder-led company based in Bellevue, Washington, building counterparty vetting for teams that need to show their work.
Why Traustis exists
Deciding who to do business with is one of the most consequential things a company does, and one of the least systematic. Most teams check suppliers, customers and partners with a patchwork of registry searches, spreadsheets and judgement calls. It works until somebody asks — a regulator, an auditor, a board — why a particular company was approved or declined, and the answer is scattered across inboxes.
At the same time, AI tools have arrived that will happily produce a risk verdict without being able to say where it came from. For compliance work, that is the wrong way round.
Traustis takes the opposite approach. Your organisation writes the rules. Evidence comes from sources that can actually answer the question. AI helps with the reading, but decisions come from your policy and your people, and the record of how each decision was made is kept.
What we believe
Show the work
A decision without its evidence is an opinion. Every case keeps both.
Be honest about gaps
No data source covers everything. Saying so is safer than a confident guess.
People stay accountable
Technology can gather and organise. Accountability for a decision stays with a person.
Work with us early
We are looking for a small number of design partners to shape Traustis with us.
