Ripjar

Overview

Ripjar sells enterprise screening to institutions that already have a screening system and are drowning in what it produces. The argument it makes is architectural rather than featural: conventional screening treats every alert as a fresh event, so context is discarded, the same entity is investigated repeatedly, and analyst time is consumed by matches already resolved. Ripjar moves the unit of record from the alert to the entity. Each person or organization is resolved once into a dynamic risk profile that carries sanctions, politically exposed person status, watchlist hits and adverse media together, retains every prior decision and its rationale, and re evaluates only on material change rather than on every list refresh. Once a link is rejected it stays rejected. Underneath sits ULTRA, a proprietary engine the company traces to its founders' work at the United Kingdom signals intelligence agency. It carries the entity resolution, the multilingual name matching, and what the company calls specialized explainable AI. The name matching is the sharpest technical claim: over a million name variants across more than 20 scripts and more than 400 languages, resolving transliterations, aliases, diminutives and organisational name parts, benchmarked at 94 percent better than Levenshtein distance. Adverse media is a separate capability with separate coverage, natural language extraction across more than six billion articles in 22 or more languages, resolved into up to 14 million entity profiles and refreshed twice daily. Three products sit on the engine. Ripjar Screening is the anti money laundering platform. Screening Assistant is an agentic layer that assesses alerts, closes low risk items without a person and escalates the rest with evidence. Ripjar Labyrinth is a threat investigation product sold into security and intelligence work, and a third party risk product called 3P60 extends the same screening to counterparties and suppliers. Scale is stated precisely rather than vaguely: more than 300 customer deployments including six of the 29 global systemically important banks, alongside corporates and regulators. Dow Jones is both an investor and a published customer. The company is Ripjar Ltd of Cheltenham, founded 2012, majority backed by Long Ridge Equity Partners with Accenture and Winton also on the register.
