Legalian

Key features

• KYC-Engine – native access to global commercial and transparency registers, 144 countries, 10 of which are connected via direct API integration
• Sanktionsnetzwerk (Sanctions Network) – Goes beyond direct hits by mapping connections and shareholdings around sanctioned entities, including agentic downward searches that registers don‘t cover.
• EDD Reports – Enhanced due diligence at scale: cross-jurisdictional deep research delivered in hours instead of days or weeks, with every finding sourced.
• Sentinel – Continuous monitoring of the entire client portfolio; UBO, PEP, sanctions, and adverse-media changes are detected within hours, making KYC reactive and 100% change-focused.
• End-to-end workflow: register search → control structure & UBO mapping → PEP/sanctions/adverse-media screening → pre-filled client questionnaires → risk assessment with mandatory human review → audit-ready reporting package

Integrations

Open native API for integration into any system landscape (practice management, CRM, DMS, etc.), plus out-of-the-box standard integrations with DATEV, Vertec, ADVOSERVICE, and other common practice-management tools. Legalian writes results back directly into existing systems, so it operates as an automation layer rather than a separate tool.

More information

Legalian positions itself as an automation layer rather than another tool: it writes results directly back into existing systems, so users only log in when irregularities occur. Traction claims: 100+ customers, 2,300+ active users. Used by firms including PwC and Möhrle Happ Luther. Hosting is offered in the EU or in a Sovereign Cloud Germany option.
