Business Rescue and Insolvency Agent
The agent processes creditor claims, verifies asset valuations, identifies security held and calculates distributions in the statutory order of preference. It flags impeachable dispositions under the Insolvency Act, so practitioners can concentrate on rescue strategy and creditor negotiations.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.
Paper-heavy work, handled
SA's business rescue and liquidation caseload means large volumes of proofs of claim, security documents and transaction records. The agent organises them into structured registers.
Better recoveries
Undervalued or omitted assets and possible impeachable dispositions under sections 26, 29, 30 and 31 are flagged for potential recovery.
Defensible before the Master and court
Every classification, valuation and distribution figure is traced to source, supporting creditors' meetings and any challenge.
Capabilities
Claims, security and distributions handled, so you can focus on the rescue.
Built for business rescue practitioners, liquidators and trustees appointed by the Master, insolvency attorneys, and bank recoveries and workout teams.
Automated claims processing
Extracts claim amounts, creditor details, supporting documents and classifications from proofs of claim into a structured register for review and dispute.
Security verification
Validates secured claims by cross-referencing mortgage and notarial bonds from Deeds Office records, cessions, pledges and security agreements against the asset register.
Asset valuation analysis
Reviews valuations, sworn appraisals and financial statements to flag discrepancies and identify undervalued or omitted assets.
Distribution calculation
Drafts distributions under the Insolvency Act order of preference, or the business rescue ranking of post-commencement finance, employees and other creditors, for the L&D account or rescue plan.
Impeachable disposition detection
Flags possible dispositions without value, voidable and undue preferences, and collusive dealings under sections 26, 29, 30 and 31 of the Insolvency Act.
Complete audit trail
Links every claim, valuation and distribution figure to source documents, creating a defensible record for the Master, the court and creditors' meetings.

Deployment
Runs inside the tools your team already uses
The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.
In the frontier assistant you already pay for
We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.

How we deliver it
One agent, three ways to hold it
Start where your team already works, then take it as far into your systems as the value justifies.
DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY
Your case files stay yours.
The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what each task needs, and never trains on your case files. Every step is logged so your auditors can see exactly what it touched.
Built for regulated work.
+YOUR CASE FILES NEVER LEAVE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
