Company
PANADATA
Background checks on businesses using public records
We built a platform that runs background checks on businesses in Panama using public records. Our product pulls together data from government sources to deliver due diligence, commercial intelligence, and compliance information. Local banks, law firms, regulators, ports, embassies, and law enforcement rely on us for this data.
We are based in Panama City, Panama, and work remotely. After YC, the company would remain here.
Panama City is where the data lives and where our customers operate. The local regulations and public records are central to our product, so we are embedded locally to maintain access and relevance.
