A short buyer’s checklist: jurisdiction packs, honesty about gaps, browser vs server, and whether the tool pretends to file.
Validator products range from spreadsheet macros to full filing gateways. For pre-file data quality, ask sharper questions than “does it support AML?”
- Which regulators and report types are actually enforced — with public sources cited?
- Are registry / Online / batch-envelope gaps labeled, or silently always-pass?
- Does validation require uploading case data to a vendor cloud?
- Is filing bundled, or clearly separated so a green check cannot be mistaken for an ack?
- Can analysts see rule IDs and remediation mapped to official catalogues?
FIU Ready is built as an open Check one / Batch check pre-file gate with transcribed FINTRAC and FinCEN packs, honest coverage counts, and no filing. Use it where that match your workflow — and keep the regulator as the final authority.
