The control layer for cross-border technology and capital

Globalization isn't ending. It's becoming permissioned.

Capital and technology still have to cross borders that are increasingly controlled. Arqis determines what each regulatory regime requires, shows the rule behind every test, and tells you the moment a determination stops holding.

Why it pays for itself

The cost of getting this wrong is bigger than the cost of the product.

A cleared, monitored position creates value in four different ways. Which one matters most depends on which side of the deal you're on.

Cost avoidance

A tested programme is a defence, not just a policy

Regulators treat a documented, independently tested compliance programme as a mitigating factor in penalty decisions. An untested one is treated as unevidenced, whatever the binder says.

Cost savings

Every determination in-house is one outside counsel didn't draft

A desk that runs its own cited, reproducible first-pass determinations spends its outside counsel budget on judgment calls, not on work already done.

Time savings

Hours, not the six-week memo loop

A cleared position on a lease, a stake or a training run is available before the deal stalls in diligence, not after a partner finds time to review it.

Revenue enablement

The deal that wouldn't have closed at all

Some tenants, syndicates and enterprise customers require a documented compliance posture just to sign. Without one, the deal isn't slower. It doesn't happen.

The workspace

Every determination, in one register.

A view of the workspace, shown with illustrative determinations. Assessments, the compliance programme and filings sit in the same place, each one cited to the rule that produced it.

Security & confidentiality

Your determinations stay yours.

A regulatory position is competitively sensitive by definition: the counterparties you're screening, the structure you're considering, the gap you haven't closed yet. Arqis is built so none of that ever leaves the tenant that created it.

Encryption

Encrypted in transit and at rest

Every determination, document and communication is encrypted end to end, including inside the hash-chained evidence store.

Isolation

Strict tenant isolation

Your corpus interpretations, counterparties and determinations are never visible to another tenant, and never used to train a shared model.

Access control

Role-based access, fully audited

Every read and write is scoped to role and logged. Who saw a determination is itself part of the evidentiary record.

Privilege

Built to preserve privilege

An escalation carries the trace to your counsel without waiving privilege over your own analysis. Arqis computes; your lawyers advise.

The surface

One transaction. Six regimes.

A single compute deal, whether it closes in the Gulf, Southeast Asia or anywhere else technology crosses a border, can trigger all six at once. Today, each regime means a separate law firm, memo and spreadsheet, all for one transaction and one decision.

Continuous monitoring

A determination goes stale two ways.

Every compliance tool answers the question once. Arqis is the one that notices when the answer no longer holds.

First

The rule changes

A threshold moves, an entity is designated, a suspended rule reimposes. Every saved determination that cited the affected policy re-runs and reopens if it no longer reproduces.

Register

Second

The facts change

A shareholder shifts, a restricted identity authenticates, capacity is subleased to a party who was never in the assessment. The conditions your determination depends on become monitored controls.

Verify

We don't decide what should be permitted.

Arqis determines what each applicable regulatory regime requires. A US buyer, a European manufacturer, a Gulf sovereign and a Singapore operator can all rely on the same determination. A partisan tool would be unusable by at least one of them.

Decide

Cited, test by test

Every test names the rule it applied, the effective date, and the confidence. The reasoning is exposed rather than asserted.

Verify

Conditions become controls

The conditions attached to a determination are watched, not assumed. Breach is detected at breach, not at audit.

Escalate

Arqis computes, counsel judges

Contested interpretation goes to your own counsel, carrying the full trace, so they start from our work rather than from zero.

Independent oversight

A council that reviews the methodology, not the commercial decisions.

Arqis is building a Regulatory Advisory Council: former regulators and policy experts across multiple jurisdictions, engaged under conflict checks, who review how the corpus is built and interpreted rather than direct commercial outcomes. Multi-jurisdiction membership is the point. A council that only reflected one government's view of what should be permitted would undermine the same neutrality the product is built on.

Solutions

Built around how each side of the deal is exposed.

The regimes are the same six. What each of these teams needs to see first is not.

Data centres & infrastructure

Every rack you fill is a cross-border decision

Sourcing, capital stack, and tenant screening for the life of the lease.

See the solution →

Sovereign & institutional investors

Every stake is a position, not a moment

CFIUS syndicate structuring and mandatory-filing thresholds, watched after close.

See the solution →

AI labs & compute buyers

The chips cleared customs. Did the training run?

Deemed-export and end-use screening that survives the purchase order.

See the solution →

Compliance manuals & tracking

A manual is a snapshot. Your company isn't

Draft from your determinations, with training and testing tracked as monitored controls.

Banks & trade finance desks

The wire cleared. Did the screening?

Correspondent chain and beneficial ownership risk, watched hop by hop.

Universities & research institutions

The grant cleared. Did the lab access?

Deemed export and fundamental research exclusion status, tracked researcher by researcher.

Who it's for

Built for the people who own the risk.

Arqis sits wherever a cross-border technology or capital decision has to be defended later, not just made once.

General counsel & legal

A determination outside counsel can start from

Every test is cited to the rule that produced it. Escalate a contested call with the trace attached, not a blank page.

Strategy, partnerships & corporate development

Screen it before the term sheet

Know what all six regimes require for a transaction or a partnership before diligence begins, not after it stalls.

Boards & investors

See the position, not just the economics

A determination that is monitored, not just made once, is a materially different risk to approve or underwrite.

Trade & export control

One file instead of six memos

BIS, CFIUS, outbound, MOFCOM, SEC and bulk-data review, consolidated into a single record that stays current.
