Not a generic KYC tool adapted for Australia. Sentine is built from the ground up around the AML/CTF Act, AUSTRAC guidance, and the specific obligations facing accounting firms, real estate agencies, and law firms.

Differentiators

What Sets Sentine Apart

Six key architectural decisions that make Sentine different from every other option.

Matter-First Architecture

Obligations attach to matters/engagements, not just clients. Each designated service gets its own scoping, risk assessment, and evidence pack.

Evidence-First Workflow

Every decision requires Decision + Rationale + Timestamp + Approver + Snapshot. Compliance evidence is captured as you work, not retroactively.

SMR Firewall (Shadow Case)

SMR data architecturally isolated from matters. No indicators on shared surfaces. Tipping-off prevention by design, not just permissions.

Vendor-Agnostic Adapter Pattern

Provider integration via adapter layer. FrankieOne integration with normalised result model. Switch providers without rearchitecting.

Built in Australia, for Australia

Australian data residency, built around the AML/CTF Act, AUSTRAC guidance, and specific obligations for AU accounting firms, real estate agencies, and law firms.

Purpose-Built for Tranche 2

Not a generic KYC tool adapted for Australia. Built from the ground up for Tranche 2 obligations commencing 1 July 2026.

Architecture

Built on Sound Principles

The architectural decisions that underpin every feature in the platform.

Decision + Rationale + Evidence

Every compliance decision must have a documented outcome, rationale, timestamp, actor, and evidence snapshot.

Immutable Audit Trail

Append-only event stream. No edits, no deletions. Complete forensic record of all compliance activity.

Object-Separated SMR Data

SMR data in separate tables/objects from matter data. Not just role-restricted — architecturally isolated.

Adapter Pattern for Providers

Vendor-agnostic integration. Normalised result model prevents provider lock-in.
