After speaking with compliance professionals at firms of all sizes, from RIAs to large broker-dealers, a clear pattern is emerging. Teams are not just frustrated by outdated supervision systems. They are desensitized.
Review queues are overwhelmed with irrelevant alerts. Teams are spending hours sifting through messages that say "No worries" or "Best regards," flagged by legacy platforms still stuck in a keyword-based model. And somewhere in all that noise, real risks are being missed.
This is not just inefficient. It is a compliance failure waiting to happen.
False positives are not a minor inconvenience. They are a systemic risk. The more clutter your team has to wade through, the more likely they will miss something that matters.
We’ve heard the same stories from compliance leaders across the industry:
None of these are actual risks. But the system doesn’t know that - and the team reviewing them has to waste time proving it.
This kind of noise erodes trust in your supervision tools. And when alerts no longer feel meaningful, they stop being effective.
The industry debate has long focused on whether keywords are enough. On one side: clarity, simplicity, and known rules. On the other: AI-powered context, linguistic nuance, and smarter risk detection.
But the real question is not whether to use keywords or AI. It is whether your system is helping you see real risks clearly or burying them under meaningless alerts.
Clarity matters. So does explainability. Supervision tools must surface what matters without turning the process into a black box that no one understands.
This is why we built MirrorWeb Sentinel. It is a new kind of compliance supervision solution, designed to help firms cut the noise, flag real risks, and prove defensibility without the complexity or cost of legacy tools.
Here’s what sets Sentinel apart:
Fewer False Positives: Sentinel reduces noise by up to 90 percent. That means teams spend less time reviewing harmless content and more time investigating actual compliance risks.
Context-Aware Detection: Sentinel understands language. It looks beyond keywords and evaluates context, tone, and conversation dynamics to identify actual concerns.
Explainable Alerts: Every alert in Sentinel comes with a clear explanation. There are no opaque decisions. Everything is auditable, transparent, and defensible for regulators.
Intelligent Risk Scoring: Instead of treating all flagged content equally, Sentinel prioritizes based on risk. Your team sees what matters first.
Rapid Deployment: Sentinel is ready in days, not months. No heavy configuration. No drawn-out onboarding. Just instant insight where you need it.
Legacy systems were built for an era of email and manual review. Today’s communication environment is faster, messier, and more nuanced. Compliance teams need tools that keep up.
MirrorWeb Sentinel is built for modern compliance supervision - where risk is harder to detect, resources are stretched, and the cost of missing a red flag is higher than ever.
If your team is overwhelmed with noise, chasing false alerts, and struggling to prove the value of your current platform, you are not alone. We built Sentinel for compliance professionals like you - leaders who want oversight that is intelligent, explainable, and effective.
