Product tour

The full machine, nothing hidden.

OilFlow is three-layer infrastructure for physical oil and gas trade. Layer 1 (Trust) is live — verification, matching, document orchestration, NCNDA gating, sanctions screening. Layer 2 (Settlement) is in development — LC routing to partner banks, escrow coordination, dispute mediation. Layer 3 (Data) is on the roadmap — proprietary corridor pricing and counterparty credit signals. Built on a dense automation stack and Supabase.

How it works

Verify. Match. Execute. Monitor.

Four stages. Every step automated, every counterparty verified, every contract reviewable.

Verify

OFAC / UN / EU / UK sanctions. Company registration. Physical asset check. Two trade references. 90-day re-screening.

Match

Post supply or demand. The engine scores every pair across grade, volume, freight, payment, timeline, and price.

Execute

Deal room with term sheet editor, DocuSign-backed SPA signing, LC coordination, vessel + inspection tracking.

Monitor

Deadline tracking, off-platform behaviour monitoring, dispute mediation, and repeat-match recommendations 6h after close.

Verification

The 7-step KYC pipeline

Every applicant passes all seven steps before they can see a single listing. Sanctions screening is a hard stop — no manual override, no exception process. Re-screening runs automatically every 90 days.

01
Sanctions screening
OFAC, UN, EU, UK. Hard stop on any match. Zero override.
02
Company registration
OpenCorporates + country-specific registries as fallback.
03
Regulatory licence
Petroleum-specific licence per regulator: METI (JP), MOTIE (KR), NDRC/MOFCOM (CN), EPDK (TR), CER (CA), NOPTA (AU), OGRA (PK), EPRA (KE), and 71 others — see the regulatory map.
04
Asset confirmation
News, port records, satellite APIs — confirm physical operations.
05
Trade references
Two independent references, automated outreach + AI review.
06
Digital footprint
Website, LinkedIn, news presence scored and aggregated.
07
Scam pattern screen
LOI / ICPO / DLC MT700 pattern detection to flag known fraud signatures.

Median completion

—

From application submission to verified status. Median, not fastest.

Average completion

—

Mean includes slower cases (references, asset confirmation, borderline risk).

Sanctions screening remains a hard stop — any OFAC / UN / EU / UK match auto-rejects the applicant. Re-screening runs every 90 days. This view refreshes every 5 minutes.

FROM RAFAE

On stalled negotiations: I call both parties at day 21 and find out what broke. Most deals fail at the same three points — payment terms, laycan, or trust. We solve all three before the introduction lands.

Roadmap

What we monetize, in sequence.

Three layers, three monetization streams, sequenced — not parallelized. L1 deal fees are live today. L1.5 KYC-as-API, L2 escrow take rate, and L3 data subscriptions land on a defined timeline as the network and partner banks fill in.

Full thesis · /thesis

01
L1.5 — KYC-as-API
$25–100K/yr per institution
Target Q2-2026 · Mashreq trade-finance pilot
Sell the trust stack as a paid API to banks, trading houses, insurers, exchanges. The 28-country EM-commodity regulatory matrix is the dataset moat.
02
L2 — Escrow take rate
0.25–0.50% on settled flow
Target Q3-2026 · One partner bank, cargoes <$20M
White-label escrow via partner bank, in addition to the 0.25% L1 matching fee. Float on escrowed funds. OilFlow never custodies — partner bank is the custodian.
03
L3 — Data subscription
$5–50K/yr per seat
Target Q4-2026 · First paid subscriber
Proprietary EM-corridor trade data: prices, volumes, counterparty pairings, freight, payment terms, inspection outcomes. EM-corridor coverage Platts, Argus, and S&P Global do not provide at depth.
