## What the product does

Indicium screens people and companies and delivers a reviewable risk report with dated sources in minutes instead of days. Every report documents what was checked, where the information comes from, and — critically — what the check structurally cannot see. Reports are built for regulated decisions: hiring, investment, mandates, supplier approval, and regulatory compliance.

## Products

### Software Report (from €79 per report)
Fully automated risk report across 7 check categories, every source dated and reproducible as of the cut-off date. Resolves ~70% of routine cases.

### Hybrid Report (custom pricing)
Software depth plus documented human review under the four-eyes principle — for cases with elevated significance.

### Boutique Report (custom pricing)
Fully analyst-led work for nested, multi-jurisdiction or high-stakes cases. Built for litigation support, internal investigations and complex due diligence.

### Indicium Radar (early access)
Continuous monitoring for executive search firms: detects when an introduced candidate later starts at your client after all (backdoor hire), documented with source, date and evidence — prepared so you can assert your fee claim.

## The 7 check categories

1. Sanctions and watchlists (EU, OFAC, UN, SECO)
2. Politically exposed persons (PEP)
3. Adverse media
4. Commercial registers, ownership structures and UBO (3 levels deep)
5. Press and public records
6. Network and business entanglements
7. Social and digital traces

## Ecosystem and infrastructure development

Indicium joined TechBoost, Deutsche Telekom's startup program, in 2026. The program runs for twelve months and gives participating companies access to the Telekom Startup Ecosystem and possible technical, commercial and communications development formats.

Indicium uses the program to evaluate enterprise requirements and assess where T Cloud Public could be a technical and commercial fit. Current production hosting remains on AWS infrastructure in EU regions. TechBoost participation does not certify or endorse Indicium, does not establish a strategic partnership with Deutsche Telekom, and does not mean that Deutsche Telekom uses Indicium.
