Sandbar
Our mission is to stop money laundering. By law, financial institutions must monitor transactions for illicit activity. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of time and resources to do this correctly. Roughly $6T is laundered every year and $180B is spent on anti-money-laundering efforts. Only 2-3% of these funds are correctly identified, and existing solutions have a false positive rate of over 95%. Consequently, banks and the government must spend extra time and resources on extraneous alerts, taking away resources from investigating wrongdoing.

Our CEO was an early employee at Brigit, a notable fintech in NYC that raised $25M Series A from Lightspeed, where they joined as the first Operations hire. He has previous experience in VC and finance. Our CCO has worked at J.P. Morgan where he has been working on the highest-profile money laundering issues in the world.
