Not just another SaaS

Financial-grade tenant isolation.

Each Ayn customer is provisioned with dedicated Production and UAT databases, providing database-level separation between customers as well as between testing and live environments.

Rather than relying solely on logical tenant identifiers within a shared database, Ayn isolates customer data at the database level. This architecture reduces cross-tenant exposure risk, limits the potential blast radius of incidents, and enables independent backup, recovery, retention, and lifecycle management for each customer.

Dal’s AML platform has truly been a game changer for us. Alongside comprehensive global PEP and sanctions screening, it has automated and streamlined CMA reporting, saving us significant time and effort. What sets Dal apart is their deep understanding of CMA requirements and how things are done in practice — they simplify the process and make it much easier to navigate. On top of that, their customer support is outstanding: responses come quickly, often within the hour, and they don’t just acknowledge feedback but act on it, reflecting and implementing improvements without delay. Their commitment, agility, and reliability have made them not just a solution provider, but a trusted partner for us at Pinnacle Capital.

Maha AlThehaiban

Compliance & AML Lead, Pinnacle Capital

Dal began where others stopped. We quickly came to rely fully on their platform. Their true strength shows in handling Nafith, Makken, and Adverse Media. The pace of their development is impressive, and with such a passionate team, it’s hard to imagine how far they’ll go a year from now!

Norah Albarraq

Chief Compliance Officer, TAM Capital

Ayn gave us flexibility in building customer risk assessments that reflect the nature of our activities and products, through customizable risk factors and weights. The dashboard also improved our tracking of open cases and matters by providing a clearer view of each customer's status and the actions required, which sped up processing and raised the efficiency of our decision-making.

Turki Al-Aidi

Head of Compliance and AML, Dinar

Ayn's products added tangible value to our business through a comprehensive solution that elevates the efficiency of our internal operations. The platform's readiness and the responsiveness of the Dal team enabled us to activate the products in less than a week from signing, which helped accelerate adoption, raise team efficiency, and reduce the time required to complete tasks.
