Our take: Choose Komos if you run a background screening operation and want portal-based checks, such as court record searches, automated with a full per-run audit trail.
Main limitation: Built for background screening operations rather than general-purpose automation; the only paid tier is custom Enterprise.

Lets a user walk through a portal task once on screen and has the AI convert it into an editable workflow with integrations wired in. Removes the need to script portal automations by hand.
Access: Free Trial and EnterpriseLimit: Portal-specific quirks may still require editing the generated flow.source (opens in a new tab)
Visual workflow builder with branching
Provides a drag-and-drop builder where steps can be edited and reordered, with If/Else, loops, early exit and wait-for guards. Keeps verification runs behaving the same way on every case.
Access: Free Trial and EnterpriseLimit: Versioning and rollback are described on the homepage without plan-level detail.source (opens in a new tab)
Step-by-step audit trail
Records every run as step-by-step logs with screenshots and the source material behind each result, exportable for review. Lets compliance and QC trace exactly what happened on a case.
Access: Free Trial and EnterpriseLimit: Retention period of stored runs is not stated.source (opens in a new tab)
Exception queues and role-based access
