Alto Verification powered by Thirdfort automates identity checks, AML screening, proof of ownership, and source of funds — all built directly into Alto, logged automatically, and completed before transactions have a chance to go wrong.
Part of Alto Intelligence — the AI layer built directly into Alto.
Identity checks, AML screening, source of funds, proof of ownership — the compliance requirements for estate agents have grown significantly, and they keep growing. Most agencies are doing their best, but manual processes are hard to scale, difficult to audit, and easy to miss when the pace picks up.
And the cost of getting it wrong isn’t just financial. It’s reputational and in some cases even regulatory.
When checks are done by hand, they depend on whoever is doing them being thorough, up to date, and not overloaded. Documents get requested late. Responses get chased across inboxes. Audit trails live in email threads. And when something does go wrong, piecing together what happened takes longer than it should.
Compliance should protect your agency. Manual compliance just creates more admin.
How Alto Verification works
Verify identity using biometric document scanning, facial matching, and secure ID validation. Know the person is who they say they are before risk enters the process.
Run anti-money laundering screening against sanctions, PEPs, and risk databases with built-in alerts for potential red flags. Issues get flagged before they become problems.
Capture info and evidence that proves the transaction is fully funded from legitimate sources.
Ensure you’re dealing with all the legal owners of the property before proceeding.
Every verification result, report, and flag is logged directly inside Alto the moment checks complete, creating a transparent, auditable record from first touch. No chasing documents through email. No spreadsheet audit trails.
What this unlocks: A compliant, fully auditable transaction process — without the admin burden that usually comes with it.
Alto Prospecting is the Signal layer of Alto Intelligence – the capability that helps you find the right opportunities first, before the admin of running an agency gets in the way. Five capabilities, built into Alto, each one giving time back to the people who know how to use it.
