ClearAML vs StackGo IdentityCheck

These are not the same kind of product

ClearAML is an end-to-end hosted platform. StackGo IdentityCheck is a verification layer you plug into your own process. Comparing them on monthly cost will mislead you: they are bought to do different jobs, and the cheaper figure below does not mean the better buy. Read the capability rows, not the prices.

12 further fields are unestablished for at least one of the two and are left out of the list above. A gap in our research is not a point against a product, and presenting it as one would score these two on our work rather than on theirs.

Every field, side by side

Reading a spec strip

  • Verifiedconfirmed on the provider’s own site
  • Partialpresent but limited or conditional
  • Absentthe product does not do it
  • Not establishedwe could not confirm either way

Each bar runs one segment per capability, in the same order on every board, so two providers compare by position. A hatched segment means the field is unfilled, not that the product lacks the capability — around half of all capability fields on this site are currently unestablished, and a blank would read as “no” and misrepresent a real business. Show all opens the full list in place.

ClearAML: 15/24 verified.StackGo IdentityCheck: 3/24 verified. A higher count means more that we could confirm, not necessarily more that the product does.

Where each is weaker

ClearAML

  • Verification charged per check on all tiers; only Professional and above include a monthly credit.

StackGo IdentityCheck

  • StackGo is a verification and screening layer that integrates into a CRM or workflow system, not an end-to-end compliance platform.
  • Does not include AML program generation, SMR workflow, TTR support, or ongoing monitoring; it is a check-delivery tool for plugging into customer processes.
  • All pricing is in USD. No AUD pricing is published or available. Conversion to AUD is unreliable; request a quote for Australian dollar cost.
  • Integrations widely attributed to StackGo elsewhere (Ignition, Clio) could not be found on the vendor's own site and are unconfirmed.
