# Rigore

*/Startups/Rigore*

## Startup Overview

This compliance engine ingests raw transaction logs and reconciles them directly against active regulatory reporting schemas. The system monitors data flows in real-time, instantly identifying discrepancies between executed digital payments and the specific formatting requirements of current financial regulations. It automatically adjusts its validation rules whenever regulatory bodies publish new schema modifications.

Financial institutions and digital payment networks face a constant mismatch between their internal data structures and shifting global compliance mandates. When regulators modify reporting fields, internal engineering teams typically scramble to rewrite extraction scripts while compliance officers wait on delayed batch processing. This system eliminates the gap between transaction execution and regulatory submission by validating every ledger entry at the moment of creation.

Legacy GRC suites rely on periodic batch uploads, and manual Big Four audits only sample past anomalies. In-house compliance scripts break entirely when external reporting formats evolve. By combining continuous real-time reconciliation with fully audit-evidence native outputs, the software ensures every verified transaction generates cryptographic proof of compliance, ready for immediate regulatory inspection without retrospective manual reviews.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting cross-border payment processors aiming to fully automate daily transaction mapping to MiFID II schemas.
- Designed to replace manual quarterly audit sampling with 100% continuous log coverage.
- Aiming to reduce external audit preparation time for digital asset exchanges by outputting deterministic, Big Four-ready evidence.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Single Regime · Price: ~$3,000–$5,000/mo · Inclusions: Continuous reconciliation of up to 1 million transaction logs against one primary regulatory schema, including real-time discrepancy flagging.
- Name: Multi-Jurisdiction · Price: ~$8,000–$15,000/mo · Inclusions: Reconciliation of up to 5 million transaction logs across up to 5 concurrent regulatory schemas, with automated audit-evidence generation and API export.
**Guarantee**: If a transaction is misclassified due to a failure in our platform to reflect a published regulatory schema change, Rigore will credit that month's subscription fee and supply the corrected audit evidence at no cost.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Our transaction data is too sensitive to leave our environment. -> Rigore is designed for hybrid deployment, where only hashed compliance metadata and schema mappings leave your infrastructure.
- We already use a legacy GRC suite as our system of record. -> Rigore acts as the active reconciliation engine, built to push validated, audit-native evidence directly into your existing GRC APIs without a rip-and-replace.
- Regulators change reporting formats unexpectedly. -> The platform continuously ingests and diffs regulatory publications, automatically flagging your internal transaction types that will be impacted before the deadline hits.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- A 30-day shadow reconciliation pilot with a payment processor, aiming to run Rigore alongside their legacy manual process to prove the platform flags 100% of formatting discrepancies missed by human sampling.
- A 60-day hybrid deployment trial with a crypto exchange, aiming to process 1 million transaction logs locally and successfully push hashed compliance metadata to their GRC API without exposing PII.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 100% transaction log audit coverage versus legacy 5% manual sampling.
- Aim: 0 days of lag between a published regulatory schema change and internal system mapping updates.
- Target: 80% reduction in external audit preparation hours.
- Aim: Under 5 minutes to generate deterministic, Big Four-ready audit evidence for a 1-million transaction dataset.
**Target Case Studies**:
- Target: A cross-border payment processor transitioning from quarterly manual audit sampling to 100% continuous daily log coverage against MiFID II schemas.
- Target: A digital asset exchange replacing multi-week Big Four audit preparation with automated, deterministic evidence generation that pushes directly into their existing GRC system via API.
- Target: A regional fintech lender consolidating multiple jurisdictional reporting mappings into a single automated engine that flags regulatory schema changes prior to reporting deadlines.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- Chief Compliance Officer at a payments firm: Needs to validate that Rigore's automated ingestion of regulatory changes eliminates the risk of missing a format update and incurring reporting fines.
- VP of Engineering at a digital asset exchange: Needs to confirm that the hybrid deployment model successfully keeps raw transaction data on-premises while automating compliance metadata mapping.
- Head of Risk and Audit at a fintech lender: Needs to express relief that Rigore pushes validated evidence directly into their legacy GRC suite without requiring a system rip-and-replace.

## Startup Top Risks
