RegTech, AML/KYC and Money Transmission
Regulated + assurance market (fincen msb registration, uk dvs register, kantara trust status list). The Kin Score Market layer reads each provider in its market:
who it integrates with, how deep those integrations go, and where the market publishes its own structure.
Methodology.
57providers measured
13 (22.8%)declare their own
12 (21.1%)covered by others only
5 (8.8%)distribution only (sell through, not integrations)
27 (47.4%)undeclared
1declare compatibility (report only, not weighted)
0in-market workflows shown
Provisional. Provisional and unweighted: the Market layer is not part of the composite or agent readiness. Leader lists are read within a position, never as one ranking. A provider that declares nothing we can
read is shown as undeclared, with no number: we never infer integrations.

Own = declares at least one integration itself; covered = visible only because an aggregator, standards body, regulator or partner contract names it; distribution-only = listed only on cloud marketplaces it sells through, a channel reported beside, never counted as its own declared integrations; undeclared = nothing we can read, so no number; declares_compatibility = providers with a `compatible` shape vote, report only (kin, 2026-10-13): never counted as own, never in depth or position.
Taxonomy how this market maps onto apis.io
Derived 2026-10-15 from the 57 providers in this market we could resolve in the
catalog. The percentage is the share of those providers carrying each one; it describes the market, not the tag or industry. Tag groups have no page of their own yet, so they are listed unlinked.
