Over a decade of proprietary data, built for the AI-native age

Article content

Elliptic was first to bring AI-native compliance to enterprise scale in 2025, not as a feature, but as a fundamentally different way to run compliance operations. Today’s Series D funding will extend that lead. Elliptic has a structural advantage because of its data: founded in 2013, the company has spent over a decade building the deepest, most comprehensive proprietary dataset in the industry, spanning 65+ blockchains and refined through continuous collection and labelling of assets and entities.

Built on that foundation, Elliptic’s data and intelligence platform processes more contextual information per transaction than any competitor, enabling automated triage, faster decisions and significantly lower cost per investigation. The result is a compliance operation that can do more with less: alerts resolved in minutes not hours, human judgement reserved for where it genuinely matters, and the cost of compliance that falls as volume grows. This is what compliance teams at the world’s largest exchanges and financial institutions are up against. The promise of AI only holds if the data underneath it does too. Elliptic has spent thirteen years making sure it does.

Elliptic pioneered the use of blockchain analytics to meet this challenge and has cemented its status as a global leader, screening over 1 billion transactions a week for 700+ customers in 30 countries. This investment also proves the British Growth Partnership is doing exactly what it was built to do: unlocking the explosive growth of UK technology scale-ups to deliver long term value for our pension funds.”

Stablecoins and tokenized assets are no longer at the periphery of financial innovation. They are becoming the infrastructure through which value moves globally. In 2025, stablecoins processed $33 trillion in transactions¹, for the exchanges and crypto-native businesses that process the majority of this volume, real-time compliance at scale is not a future requirement, it is an operational necessity today.

Article content

Two thirds of global crypto volume is transacted on exchanges that already rely on Elliptic, a foundation that now serves as the compliance backbone as those same assets move into traditional finance. Compliance at enterprise scale is an infrastructure problem for the exchanges handling billions in daily crypto volume and the financial institutions moving on chain alike. Elliptic is built to address this at every point of that journey. By powering Elliptic’s data and intelligence platform and AI-native compliance solutions with the industry’s deepest data layer, Elliptic enables institutions to monitor continuously and in real time, catching risk before it crystallises and directs human judgement only where it is genuinely needed. Elliptic is the compliance layer that scales without scaling cost, built to grow with the on-chain financial system itself.
