About us
The Personr Story
At Personr, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance isn’t just business, it’s personal.
Personr was founded after Co-Founder Charlie Westerman had his identity stolen.
Nick Ahrens and Charlie thought more should be done to prevent this, and Personr was founded. Personr was created to do more than meet compliance requirements; it was built to help prevent fraud and financial crime at scale. The platform has grown and now enables businesses to centralise policies, risk assessments, reporting, and record-keeping in one secure platform.
We provide global KYC coverage across 50+ countries, KYB verification in 200+ jurisdictions, support for 12,000+ identity documents, and worldwide AML screening, helping organisations scale with confidence.
