Introducing Echo-360: One-Time Background & Risk Check

Trust is everything. whether you’re onboarding a new client, hiring a contractor, vetting a business partner, or simply trying to reduce fraud and compliance risk. But traditional screenings often come with high costs, complicated workflows, or limited scope.

That’s why we built Echo-360: a one-time Background & Risk Check that delivers actionable answers. Fast, clear, and without ongoing commitments.

No subscription. No long contracts.

Just enter what you know: a name, email, phone number, company, and whether the person is an entrepreneur, and Echo-360 returns a structured risk overview based on publicly available intelligence.

What questions does Echo-360 answer?

Echo-360 is designed to help you spot compliance risks, reputational red flags, fraud signals, and hidden connections. Here’s what it covers:

1) Name-based checks

If all you have is a name, Echo-360 already provides valuable screening insights:

  • Is the person a PEP (Politically Exposed Person)?
  • Is the person listed on sanctions lists, blacklists, or watchlists?
  • Are there negative media reports or unusual public red flags?
  • Is the person mentioned in potentially risk-relevant Telegram channels or posts?

This is ideal for fast due diligence before meetings, partnerships, hires, or payments.

2) Email & phone checks

Email addresses and phone numbers are often the strongest identifiers and also key indicators for fraud prevention.

Our Echo-360 answers:

  • Are there links to sanctioned countries or high-risk networks?
  • Which public registrations, usernames, and online profiles are connected to an email or phone number?
  • Are there dark web exposures or signs of compromised data?
  • How high is the fraud or abuse risk?

Whether you're dealing with onboarding, support abuse, chargebacks, or suspicious leads, this section helps identify risk early.

3) Corporate roles (Austria & Germany)

If the person is active in business, Echo-360 adds another crucial layer: corporate footprint.

It answers:

  • Which official roles, functions, or shareholdings does the person hold?
  • Are there compliance risks (sanctions, PEP connections, jurisdictions)?

This helps you understand whether someone is tied to complex ownership structures, sensitive jurisdictions, or risk-heavy entities.

4) Company checks

When a company is involved, Echo-360 supports fast and practical business due diligence:

  • Which business information is officially registered?
  • Are there reputational or media risks?
  • Are there sanctions or compliance risks?

Perfect for evaluating suppliers, counterparties, startups, or potential investments.
