Castellum.AI’s mission is to automate AML/KYC compliance for the financial services industry.
Castellum.AI is an all-in-one solution for AML/KYC screening that reduces unproductive alerts by up to 94% compared to legacy providers. We combine global risk data, a high-performance screening engine, and AI agents—all built entirely in-house. Our data covers sanctions, PEPs, adverse media, UBOs, and more. The screening engine is optimized for high-volume screening environments, offers advanced configurability and the AI agent assists with alert resolution, KYC alert closures, EDD/CDD, and additional use cases.
CEO and Co-Founder Peter Piatetsky leads strategy, growth and product design at Castellum.AI, working closely with Fortune 10s, systemically important banks and governments to help them achieve risk-aligned coverage for all of their compliance needs. Prior to co-founding Castellum.AI, Peter led U.S. compliance for a major Asian bank, and served at the US Treasury Department in multiple roles, including as Senior Policy Advisor, advising the President and other principals on sanctions, anti-money laundering and terrorist financing. Peter was detailed to the Financial Action Task Force, representing the US as an assessor for the mutual evaluation of Bahrain.
