THE COMPANY

DocFox is the leading provider of automated business account opening software, trusted by over 250 global clients, including banks, crypto platforms, fintechs, and credit unions.

Unlike other account opening tools and loan origination systems, DocFox analyzes any document for any financial institution, regardless of size.
