How TELF AG Accelerated Global Due Diligence with AI-Powered Adverse Media Screening

June 24, 2026

Vivox AI Team

TELF AG, a global commodities trading business operating across multiple jurisdictions, partnered with Vivox AI to automate adverse media screening and due diligence investigations. The result: case review times cut from 60 minutes to as little as 10–15 minutes, with broader global coverage and risks uncovered that traditional providers had missed.

TELF AG is a global commodities trading business operating across multiple jurisdictions, where counterparty due diligence is both business-critical and complex. Reviews were taking up to 60 minutes per case, and traditional screening providers were leaving gaps, particularly across non-English and regional media sources, where relevant risks could go undetected.

TELF AG partnered with Vivox AI to deploy AI-powered screening agents across its adverse media and due diligence workflows. The agents investigate each counterparty across global media sources in multiple languages, surface genuine risks with full documentation, and reduce the manual effort required from compliance teams.

The results:

  • Due diligence review times reduced from 60 minutes to 10–15 minutes per case
  • 20% of confirmed true hits identified that traditional screening providers had missed
  • Improved coverage across global and non-English media sources
  • Reduced manual review effort for compliance teams
  • 100% positive audit and regulatory feedback across completed due diligence cases

For a business operating in a high-scrutiny sector across multiple jurisdictions, the combination matters: faster reviews, deeper coverage and a fully auditable trail that has held up to regulatory review without exception.
