For FCA-regulated firms, insurers, and large enterprises
Internal investigations and employee SARs — on one platform.
Mid-large UK commercial enterprises in regulated industries run employee SARs, internal commercial investigations, M&A disclosure and regulatory submissions on overlapping data. Smartbox is the platform compliance and legal teams use to run them all.
Use cases

For firms whose data must stay in their own AWS organisation.
