Evidence, not opinions.
Every verdict in TradingSmart can be traced to a standard, a document and a person. That is what makes a report acceptable to a bank.

Complete audit trail
Every risk decision records who made it, when, and why. Dismissed findings stay visible, struck through. Nothing is ever deleted.
03
Bank-shareable evidence
Each analysis is frozen with a SHA-256 hash and shared through a secure, revocable read-only link — no login required.
How it works
From document package to verdict in seven steps.
TradingSmart reads a counterparty's full package and confronts what it declares with what official registries show.

Our principle
“AI reads. Deterministic code decides. Humans stay accountable.”
AI reads
Language models (Anthropic, OpenAI) only transcribe fields verbatim. Any value that does not literally appear in the source text is discarded.
Code decides
All risk verdicts come from deterministic code. “Not verifiable” is an honest answer — the system never invents an OK.
Humans stay accountable
Analysts review, override or dismiss findings. Every action records who, when and why.

What is TradingSmart?
TradingSmart is a web platform for commodity trading companies, developed by Cyanway Business. It manages deals, pipeline, sourcing, shipments, counterparties and commodity specs, and runs document-based counterparty due diligence before contracts are signed, producing explained red flags, an executive scorecard and a report that can be shared with a bank.
How does TradingSmart detect document fraud?
TradingSmart compares what a counterparty declares in its documents with what official registries show. Deterministic validators check passport MRZ digits (ICAO 9303), China USCC, Brazil CNPJ and IBAN (ISO 13616), and the engine flags conflicts across the package, such as two different IBANs for the same account or altered registry values.
What is counterparty due diligence in commodity trading?
Counterparty due diligence is the verification of a buyer, seller or intermediary before a contract is signed. It confirms the company legally exists, that its signatories are who they claim to be, that bank details are consistent, and that the company and people do not appear in sanctions lists or adverse court records.
Which documents can TradingSmart validate?
TradingSmart classifies and reads LOI, ICPO, FCO, CIS/KYC forms, contracts, business licenses, registry extracts (China GSXT, Brazil CNPJ card and generic registries such as Pakistan FBR or Bulgaria), passports, bank letters and screening printouts, in PDF or image form, using native text and vision OCR for scanned pages.
