Detected

Detected exists to make important business relationships move forward faster — with confidence and towards better outcomes. Its flagship product, Copilot by Detected, has become one of the most trusted platforms in the Know Your Business (KYB) space for global financial institutions, payment providers, and marketplaces worldwide since 2020.

Despite the critical nature of onboarding, the process had seen little innovation since the 1990s — characterised by manual checks, lengthy questionnaires, spreadsheets, and email-based correspondence. Copilot addresses this with a modern onboarding interface, intelligent automation, and continuous risk management, offering enterprise-grade security, lightning-fast onboarding, and global coverage.

Backed by Thomson Reuters Ventures, Love Ventures, and a strong group of angel investors, Detected has raised a total of $10M since its founding in mid-2020 by Liam Chennells and Peter Youell.
