Platform · SAR filing
Suspicious activity reports drafted, clocked and tracked, ready for you to file.
SAR preparation takes a case from the decision to file to a report ready for you to submit to FinCEN, and reads back FinCEN's acknowledgement. The draft is built from the case record, the filing clock runs from the day it starts, and every filing goes into a ledger you can hand to your examiner or your independent tester.
The problem it removes
Deadlines in a calendar, filings in a folder
- The filing deadline is tracked by hand, and a late SAR is found in the look-back, not before.
- Narratives are written from scratch each time, from notes spread across the case.
- When asked for every SAR filed last year and when, you rebuild the list from email.
What you see
Every SAR, its clock and its filing
The ledger lists every report: the case it came from, where it's on its clock, and when it was filed.
| Case | Type | Clock | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| CASE-2026-0811 | Initial | Day 24 of 30 | Filed 2026-09-02 |
| CASE-2026-0917 | Initial | Day 11 of 30 | Draft in review |
| CASE-2026-0402 | Continuing activity | Next due 2026-10-15 | Scheduled |

How it works
Decide, draft, review, file
- Decide. Your investigator decides whether activity is suspicious and a report is needed. The clock starts from that case, under written rules.
- Draft. The report is drafted from the case record in transaction monitoring and case management. Any narrative a model drafts stays a draft.
- Review. Your BSA officer, or a practitioner under your engagement, reviews and approves the report before it goes.
- File and record. The report is filed, and the filing is entered in the ledger.
Guardrails
What it will never do
- It doesn't decide that activity is suspicious. That determination is your investigator's.
- It doesn't file a report nobody has approved.
