Description

Forest is an operational backend for regulated companies that need to run human teams, AI agents, BPOs, LLMs, workflows, and suppliers in one governed environment. The platform connects databases, compliance providers, internal tools, specialized agents, and external systems while keeping data inside the customer’s infrastructure. Forest provides the shared control plane where business logic, workflows, permissions, RBAC, smart actions, and audit trails are managed. Teams can use Forest to run regulated workflows on top of existing KYC and KYB providers such as Sumsub, Onfido, Veriff, Persona, and Trulioo. It supports onboarding workflows that combine identity verification, business registry checks, beneficial-owner discovery, document checks, screening, risk-based routing, agent triage, and human review. Forest’s MCP support lets AI agents call the same workflows used by human operators while attaching audit records to each action. The platform is designed for agentic operations in regulated environments where every action by humans, agents, BPOs, LLMs, and workflows must remain traceable. Forest also provides an implementation method that maps the company’s ecosystem, connects data and suppliers, designs operator journeys, and brings workflows into production. By combining governed workflows, live data access, MCP-based agent execution, auditability, permissions, and compliance controls, Forest helps regulated companies scale operations safely.
