One AML is a consulting practice. IdentityCheck is a software product. If you're choosing between a one-time AML/CTF compliance engagement and an ongoing operational tool, the comparison matters. IdentityCheck runs inside the practice software your team already uses — every day, automatically — for your full Tranche 2 workflow.
One AML is excellent for one-time audits and program design. IdentityCheck is built for the day-to-day client onboarding and AML workflow that follows.
Runs inside XPM, Karbon, HubSpot, FYI, and 100+ other platforms. No separate AML login. No re-entering client data.
Published tiers, month-to-month, no consultation required to see the price. No bundled services you didn't ask for.
Sign up, connect your practice software, run your first check the same day. No multi-week implementation engagement.
Built specifically for AU accountants and legal firms preparing for AUSTRAC Tranche 2. Not a global firm with an Australian practice.
These are different categories of solution. One AML is consultancy. IdentityCheck is software. The right answer for many firms is both — engage One AML (or similar) for setup, run IdentityCheck for the ongoing operational compliance.

From 1 July 2026, accountants, lawyers, and real estate agents in Australia must comply with AUSTRAC's AML/CTF obligations. Compliance officer notification is required by 30 May 2026.
Instead of adding a separate AML platform — and a multi-week consulting engagement — IdentityCheck runs compliance checks inside the practice software your team already uses. AUSTRAC has indicated zero tolerance from 1 July; civil penalties extend to $33M for corporate non-compliance.

"Onboarding dropped from over an hour to under five minutes. The team didn't need any retraining — it's right there in the software they already use."
"We estimate at least a 5–10× ROI from IdentityCheck. The compliance work that used to swallow days now runs in the background."
"It's been a well-oiled machine. Our clients have a smoother experience and we have a cleaner audit trail."
One AML is a consulting and audit firm — they engage with you for a defined scope (Health Check, gap analysis, program design, statutory audit) and deliver a recommendation or report. IdentityCheck is software that runs every day, inside your practice management tool, automating ID verification, AML screening, risk assessment, and audit-ready reporting. Many firms benefit from both: One AML (or similar consultancy) for the initial program; IdentityCheck for the ongoing operational workflow.
The technology layer, yes — KYC verification, AML screening (PEP, Sanctions, Adverse Media), risk assessment, ongoing monitoring, dual record-keeping (PMS plus 7-year vault), AUSTRAC-ready audit reports, and Know Your Employee screening. For firms also needing a full AML/CTF compliance program (policy, documentation, ongoing program governance), our partner network covers the program-structure side.
It is already in production with Tranche 2-bound firms. The Tranche 2 workflow has been live since early 2026, with the AUSTRAC enrolment process supported and the 30 May 2026 compliance officer notification deadline factored into onboarding guidance.
Native integrations with XPM, Karbon, FYI, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, MYOB, Xero, QuickBooks, NetSuite, Greatsoft, Employment Hero, Zapier, and 100+ others. One AML is a consulting firm — they don't operate inside practice management software because their service is people-led, not platform-led.
IdentityCheck has published software pricing (Starter, Professional, Business tiers) with per-check pricing of approximately $7 per check. Month-to-month, no lock-in. One AML's Health Check starts at $2,500; consulting and advisory packages are price-on-application. The two services aren't directly comparable on price — different categories.
Yes. Self-service signup, no minimum commitment, free trial without a sales call. The Starter tier is purpose-built for sole practitioners and small accounting firms preparing for Tranche 2 without the budget for an enterprise consulting engagement.
No setup fees. No lock-in. Live the same day. Built for Australian firms.
