Built in Australia   -   Hosted in Australia   -   AUSTRAC Starter Kit Compatible

THE STARTER KIT THAT WORKS

A folder of documents is not a program. Forge makes it one.

AUSTRAC's Program Starter Kit gives small firms the right framework: a risk assessment, a policy and a process. Forge keeps that structure exactly as the regulator designed it and brings it to life. Your risk assessment is created in Forge.  Your Policy and Process documents live in Forge. Every control you adopt becomes a line in an Obligations Register with a named owner and an attestation cycle. Your team onboards, screens and reviews customers in the same platform, against your documented program.

When someone asks "show me this program is operating", Forge has the answer - who confirmed what, when, for every obligation.

WHAT EMBEDDED AI LOOKS LIKE IN PRACTICE

Evidence by design.

Version-controlled documents, attestation history per control, training completion per user and a screening decision trail per customer - produced as a by-product of simply using the platform.

One platform, one login.

The platform that governs your program also does the day-to-day work. No second system for onboarding, no spreadsheet of attestations, no calendar reminders for reviews.

Generated from your answers.

Policy and Process are produced from your own risk assessment and selected controls. Your compliance officer's name, your designated services, your review dates. 

Everything a small reporting entity needs, module by module.

01 — OBLIGATIONS REGISTER

The living program. Every control owned and attested.

Built from your risk assessment and business type. Every control your firm adopts has a named owner and an attestation cycle - quarterly by default, configurable to your firm. Owners confirm each period that the control has operated, reminders arrive by email, and the attestation history becomes the evidence trail an independent evaluation reads.

  • Baseline controls for accounting and law practices and real estate agencies, covering the full set of Starter Kit obligation

  • Named owner per control, set individually or in bulk — coverage is verifiable

  • Cycles anchored to your program start date

  • Who confirmed what, when for every obligation

Your people, vetted and trained.
The convenience of eLearning.

Personnel due diligence and AML/CTF staff training run inside Forge. The checks performed on each person in an AML/CTF relevant role are recorded and evidenced and mandatory training is delivered as eLearning within the platform. Module completion is tracked per user, so you can always show who was trained and when.

 

  • Personnel due diligence recorded per person, before and during employment

  • AML/CTF training delivered as eLearning, inside the platform

AI TRUST DEED EXTRACTION

Not just governance - Forge runs your due diligence too.

Onboard individuals and entities, identify the natural persons behind companies, trusts, SMSFs and partnerships and risk rate every customer against your firm's own risk assessment. Screening runs three legs per person in-platform - every possible hit is held for a human decision, with the rationale recorded as evidence.

  • Sanctions screening against the consolidated DFAT, UN, OFAC, EU and UK lists - 34,000+ entries

  • PEP and adverse media screening by AI-assisted web research, with a recorded rationale for every result reviewed

 

  • Structured ECDD for high risk customers and UMR → SMR escalation with the record retained
