## About

Based in Texas, US, VeriLeaf, Inc., d.b.a. RiskScout, was founded in 2019 by Justin Fischer and Josh Keys, and provides an integrated BSA/AML and fraud prevention platform for banks and credit unions. As of October 2026, the company is led by its CEO, Justin Fischer. On September 28, 2026, the company closed a funding round led by LiveOak Ventures, with participation from Castle Creek Launchpad, the Bankers Helping Bankers Fund, Alloy Labs, Brue2 and C3 Ventures, to expand its intelligent automation and AI-driven agents, deepen integrations with core providers and other partners, and bring its platform to more banks and credit unions. The company provides a line of solutions, including expert compliance consulting, new market activation, lead generation and onboarding, first-pass verification, and ongoing due diligence. The firm assists higher-risk market operators in activating, verifying, and managing compliances, as well as supporting businesses such as cannabis-related enterprises, ATMs, money-service firms, cryptocurrency, and others. RiskScout’s partners include Abrigo, CRB Monitor, Infused Banking, Syntrove, Bradley, the American Bankers Association, and others. RiskScout includes its fraud functionality as standard within its platform without fees for additional features, and offers the integrated Mitek Systems check fraud solution as a premium enhancement. The company will use the September 2026 funding to grow its team, enhance automation and AI capabilities, and strengthen integrations with core providers and partners.
