FrankieOne was founded in 2017 in Melbourne, Australia by Simon Costello and Aaron Chipper, who had previously experienced firsthand, while working at a neobank, how painful and fragmented the process of verifying new customers' identities could be, since regulated businesses such as banks, fintechs, and telecommunications companies are legally required to perform a range of identity verification, know-your-customer (KYC), know-your-business (KYB), and anti-money-laundering (AML) checks before onboarding new customers, but doing so thoroughly typically requires pulling data from many different identity verification, biometric, and watchlist screening providers, each with its own separate technical integration. FrankieOne's platform provides a single unified integration point that connects to a very large ecosystem of underlying identity verification, biometric matching, sanctions and politically exposed person (PEP) screening, adverse media monitoring, and fraud detection data sources and vendors, letting a business integrate once with FrankieOne and gain access to this entire ecosystem of compliance and identity tools, rather than needing to separately negotiate, integrate, and maintain relationships with dozens of individual point providers to achieve comprehensive identity verification and compliance coverage. This orchestration approach has proven particularly valuable in Australia and New Zealand, where financial and other regulated businesses face detailed and evolving anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) regulatory requirements enforced by AUSTRAC, and where a significant regulatory expansion effective mid-2026 brought tens of thousands of additional businesses, including accounting firms, newly under AML/CTF compliance obligations for the first time, creating substantial new demand for accessible compliance infrastructure like FrankieOne's platform. FrankieOne's customers span banks, fintechs, telecommunications companies, and, increasingly following the AML/CTF regulatory expansion, accounting and professional services firms navigating new compliance obligations. The company has raised funding including a $20 million Series A led by AirTree Ventures, with additional investors including Reinventure and Greycroft, competing with other identity verification platforms including Trulioo and Socure in markets outside Australia and New Zealand.
