apexanalytix has launched Qubiton, a platform for business entity validation and risk checks. It gives developers and business users access to the company's supplier data through APIs, an MCP server and a chatbot.

The launch targets a growing market for AI-driven finance and procurement tools, as companies look for ways to verify suppliers, customers and payment details before automated systems act on them. Qubiton provides access to a dataset of more than 280 million company records, along with connections to more than 1,200 external sources, including government registries, financial institutions and regulatory databases.

According to apexanalytix, the platform can validate supplier and customer master data, screen for sanctions, verify tax identification numbers and assess risk across more than 250 countries. Users can access these checks without signing an enterprise contract, a shift from the bespoke sales process often associated with supplier validation services.

AI access

A central part of the launch is an MCP server that allows AI assistants and agent-based tools to call Qubiton's services directly. This allows users to ask an AI tool to carry out tasks such as checking a supplier's tax ID or screening for sanctions without building a custom integration.

The platform works with AI assistants including Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini and Grok, as well as AI-focused development tools such as Cursor and Windsurf. It also offers software development kits for Python, Node.js and Go, along with connectors for more than 30 software platforms, including Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, Snowflake, Databricks, Zapier, n8n, Make and Power Automate.

Qubiton includes more than 70 APIs across six categories: address validation, tax ID verification, bank account verification, business registration checks, data enrichment, and risk and compliance screening.

Address verification covers more than 250 countries, including USPS CASS-certified validation in the United States. Tax checks include live authority verification in more than 60 countries and format validation across 193 countries and 242 tax types.

Bank account checks include IBAN validation in more than 80 countries, SWIFT or BIC verification in more than 180 countries and account ownership validation in 38 countries. Risk and compliance functions include sanctions screening, politically exposed persons checks, adverse media searches and composite risk scoring.

Data and trust

The product is launching as businesses experiment with AI agents in procurement and finance operations while remaining wary of bad data, fraud and compliance failures. In these areas, supplier master data and payment information have long been vulnerable to duplication, inaccuracy and manipulation.

According to apexanalytix, Qubiton is designed to return a plain-language validation verdict rather than force developers to interpret raw records from multiple databases. It is also offering a free tier of 100 calls per month to broaden access for developers building new AI-linked applications.

The platform's architecture also reflects growing concern about security and data protection in AI-connected systems. Qubiton uses post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, specifically ML-KEM for key encapsulation and ML-DSA for digital signatures.

Authentication supports OAuth 2.1, WebAuthn or passkeys, and time-based one-time passwords. The company also cited SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA compliance.

Broader strategy

Qubiton extends apexanalytix's established business in supplier risk management and recovery services into a more open, self-serve model. The group has historically sold data validation and fraud prevention tools to large enterprises, particularly those managing vast supplier networks and cross-border payments.

By opening that data through direct interfaces for developers and AI users, apexanalytix is seeking to place its records and verification services inside day-to-day workflows rather than only within large procurement or finance system deployments. That could put it in closer competition with specialist identity, compliance and data verification providers serving software teams as well as large corporate buyers.

Its wider platform protects more than USD $10 trillion in annual spend for more than 400 large companies, according to apexanalytix. Qubiton brings part of that underlying data and verification model to a broader user base, from application developers to business staff using AI chat tools.

"For decades, many of the world's largest companies have trusted apexanalytix to validate third-party master data, ensure compliance, manage supplier risk, and prevent payment fraud," said Akhilesh Agarwal, President, P2P Solutions and Technology at apexanalytix. "With QubitOn, we're making that same trusted data foundation available to everyone for the first time - not just developers writing code, but any business user who can ask a question in their favorite AI tool."
