The Opportunity

A Problem Every Institution Has. A Solution That Sells Itself.

Every financial services company across Asia and the Middle East is managing a compliance crisis it cannot solve with the tools it has today. For partners, this is a rare thing: a solution that requires no concept selling and closes in weeks, not quarters.

The compliance crisis — happening in every institution, right now
The volume
Thousands of notices. Every month.
From central banks, market regulators, tax authorities, enforcement agencies — arriving faster than compliance teams can handle them.
The tools
Email threads and spreadsheets.
Teams are overwhelmed and under-resourced. There is no system of record, no audit trail, no early warning when deadlines approach.
The consequence
Severe penalties. Board-level exposure.
$50B+ in fines issued globally since 2020. Regulators are increasing enforcement cadence. Deferral is not an option.
LEANM AI solves it — end to end, out of the box, deployable in weeks.
What happens in the first demo

"Within the first 20 minutes, compliance heads typically have three questions: when can you start, what is the price, and how is it better than what we have today. The buying conversation begins immediately."

Why this is different from everything else you sell
1

No concept education needed

Every compliance head already knows the problem intimately. They have lived it for years. You walk in, they lean forward.

2

Regulatory deadlines create urgency

Non-compliance means fines, enforcement action, and board-level liability. There is no "let me think about it." The pressure is immediate.

3

Standardised, low-risk deployment

Live in weeks. No multi-year implementation. CFOs and boards approve fast because the risk of saying yes is low and the risk of saying no is high.

4

Every account expands

Institutions that start with one segment almost always add more. Your revenue per account grows without additional sales effort.

Partner Types

Five Ways to Partner. One Shared Opportunity.

Select the model that fits your organisation. Each has a distinct proposition, a distinct commercial structure, and a distinct ask from us.

● Distribution & Resellers
You have the client base. We have the product. Let's move.

You have CXO-level relationships across financial services institutions that took years to build. LEANM AI gives you a high-urgency product your clients need right now — no concept selling, no budget creation, no lengthy evaluation cycles. You activate the relationship. We run the demo, manage the co-sell, and support every deal through to go-live.

What you bring
  • Existing relationships at CTO, COO, and compliance head level
  • Broad financial services coverage across your target geography
  • Client engagement infrastructure — events, digital, direct sales
  • Credibility as a trusted technology distribution partner
  • The ability to identify and prioritise the right accounts fast
What the model looks like
  • You introduce LEANM AI to compliance, tech, or ops contacts
  • We run the demo and handle all technical qualification
  • You stay engaged through commercial close and go-live
  • You earn on every deployment and on every monthly subscription
  • Expansion within an account grows your recurring revenue automatically
Commercial structure
Revenue share on deployment fees and recurring monthly subscription. As accounts expand to additional segments and jurisdictions, your revenue grows without additional effort. This is the model designed for organisations with broad client coverage who want meaningful, compounding recurring revenue.
● System Integrators
You're already inside the bank. Add LEANM AI to what you're building.

Your value in this partnership is depth, not breadth. LEANM AI connects directly to core banking systems — Finacle, Temenos T24, FLEXCUBE, Finastra, SAP Banking — and the integration work is where SIs unlock the most value. If you are already embedded in a bank's technology stack, adding LEANM AI is a natural extension of the engagement, not a new sales cycle.

Why this works for SIs
  • CBS integration relationships you already own become a fast-track to deployment
  • Expand existing engagements without a new procurement cycle
  • Implementation capability is a real differentiator in this category
  • Repeatable across your financial services client base
CBS connectors live today
  • Finacle — live
  • Temenos T24 — live
  • FLEXCUBE — built
  • Finastra — Q3 2026
  • SAP Banking — Q4 2026
Commercial structure
SIs earn on both implementation and subscription revenue. The deployment model is standardised enough to be repeatable across your client base while being complex enough at the CBS integration layer to require the kind of implementation partner that banks already trust and prefer.
● Consulting & Advisory
You advise boards on regulatory risk. Now you can also solve it.

The compliance conversation in financial services now starts at the board level. Regulatory risk, enforcement exposure, and operational resilience are agenda items for risk committees and audit boards across every market we operate in. If your practice advises financial institutions on regulatory strategy, governance, or operational transformation, LEANM AI gives you a concrete technology answer to a question your clients are already asking.

The advisory opportunity
  • Move from recommending change to implementing it
  • Add a recurring technology revenue line alongside advisory fees
  • Strengthen board relationships with a proven, deployable solution
  • Expand existing regulatory strategy engagements naturally
What you bring
  • Strategic access to risk committees, audit boards, and C-suite
  • Credibility that technology vendors cannot replicate
  • Deep understanding of each client's regulatory exposure
  • Ability to frame the business case in the language of the board
Commercial structure
We handle everything from demo to deployment. Your role is the introduction and the strategic framing. The commercial model for advisory partners reflects the strategic access you provide — you are not running a sales cycle, you are opening a trusted door, and you are compensated accordingly.
● Hyperscalers & Cloud Platforms
A purpose-built compliance AI workload that drives real cloud consumption.

LEANM AI is cloud-native and deployable on AWS, Azure, and GCP. For hyperscalers with financial services co-sell programmes, this is a purpose-built compliance AI solution that drives consumption on cloud infrastructure while addressing one of the most acute pain points in the sector. The regulatory compliance AI category is growing faster than almost any other enterprise AI vertical.

The hyperscaler opportunity
  • Cloud-native architecture drives meaningful consumption uplift
  • Strong alignment with financial services AI marketplace strategies
  • Purpose-built for a segment with high willingness to pay
  • Regulatory AI is one of the fastest-growing enterprise AI categories
Partnership levers
  • Marketplace listing on AWS, Azure, GCP marketplaces
  • Co-sell motions with financial services field teams
  • Joint go-to-market in target geographies
  • Category leadership positioning in compliance AI
Commercial structure
For hyperscalers, the primary value is consumption uplift and marketplace presence in a growing category. We are building for the long term in this category across Asia and the Middle East and are looking for cloud partners who want to be the default infrastructure for compliance AI in the region.
● Local & Regional Technology Partners
Local expertise is not optional. It is the product in some markets.

In every market we enter — Japan, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia — local expertise is not a nice-to-have. Regulatory frameworks are jurisdiction-specific, language is often a genuine barrier, and institutional trust is built through local relationships that take years to establish. We are looking for partners who are already embedded in the local financial services technology ecosystem.

What you bring
  • Regulatory domain expertise for your specific jurisdiction
  • Language capability — Arabic, Japanese, Bahasa, Thai, etc.
  • Relationships with local regulators and supervisory bodies
  • Market credibility that international vendors cannot replicate
What this partnership looks like
  • We bring the core product and global architecture
  • You bring the localisation, language, and market access
  • Co-build arrangement in some markets — genuine IP collaboration
  • Commercial terms that reflect the depth of the local contribution
Commercial structure
This is a genuine co-build partnership in some markets, not just a reseller arrangement, and the commercial terms reflect that. For partners in Japan, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and other markets where localisation is a real competitive moat, we structure these as long-term strategic relationships.
Commercial Model

Deploy and Operate. Recurring. Expanding.

LEANM AI is sold on a deploy-and-operate model sized to the institution. Revenue is recurring and grows automatically as accounts expand to new segments and jurisdictions.

Deployment
Initial Deployment
$25–100K per institution
One-time deployment fee covering implementation, CBS integration, configuration, and go-live support. Standardised playbook means predictable scope.
  • CBS connector setup and testing
  • Regulatory ruleset configuration
  • User onboarding and training
  • Go-live certification
Subscription
Monthly Subscription
$4–15K / month
Recurring monthly subscription covering platform access, updates, regulatory intelligence feed, and support. Scales with segments and jurisdictions added.
  • Full platform access
  • Regulatory intelligence updates
  • New notice type coverage
  • Priority support and SLA
Land and Expand
Expansion Revenue
2–4× typical Year 1 growth
Institutions that deploy for one segment almost always expand within 12 months. Each segment and each jurisdiction adds to the monthly subscription. Partner revenue compounds automatically.
  • Each new segment adds ARR
  • Multi-jurisdiction adds ARR
  • No new deployment effort
  • Partner earns on all expansion
01
The demand is already there
No partner is going in to create demand. Every compliance head already knows the problem. Partners direct clients to the solution.
02
Revenue is recurring
This is not a one-time project fee. Every account generates monthly subscription revenue that compounds with every expansion.
03
Partners never carry it alone
Every deal has Crayon support from first demo to go-live. Partners bring the relationship; we bring the product and the delivery muscle.

The Timing Argument

The Window Is Open. It Will Not Stay Open.

Compliance infrastructure is not a discretionary spend. The regulatory pressure driving demand is structural and accelerating — not cyclical. But there is a first-mover advantage for partners who establish themselves early in this category.

The institutions that deploy LEANM AI first in each market become the benchmark for their peers. The partners who helped them get there become the trusted name in the category.

That window is open now.

Why now, specifically
1

Regulatory enforcement is accelerating

RBI, SEBI, UAE Central Bank, and MAS are all increasing enforcement cadence and fine sizes simultaneously.

2

AI adoption windows are narrow

Institutions adopt AI in waves. Being the default solution in the first wave creates durable competitive position.

3

GTM is ready across all five geographies

India is live. GCC and SEA are open now. Australia and Japan are forming. Partners who move now get first-mover position across the full region.

4

The product is fully built

There is no "wait for the product." Live deployments are already running. Partners can move immediately.
