Compare · Zenoo vs RiskNarrative
Keep the LexisNexis data. Change the case.
RiskNarrative is a risk orchestration platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions. Zenoo orchestrates checks across every provider in Studio, and builds everything around the case: one case per customer with every provider's results on it, an Inbox of what needs a person, and an approval that stays locked until the file is complete.
The short answer
Which one fits your team?
Choose RiskNarrative if
- You want onboarding journeys, decisioning and monitoring from one LexisNexis platform
- Your team wants to write rules in natural language
- Most customers are decided automatically, and people see the referrals
Choose Zenoo if
- Your team's day is the case, not the journey
- You want every provider's results on one case, under your own contracts
- You want approval locked until the file is complete, with every reason on the record
- You want to choose where your data lives: EU, US, or a UK tenant

Questions
Zenoo vs RiskNarrative, asked and answered.
Is Zenoo a RiskNarrative alternative?
For the case your team works, yes. RiskNarrative is a risk orchestration platform that decides automatically where it can and escalates the rest. Zenoo is built around the case: every provider's results for a customer on one record, an Inbox of what needs a person, and an approval that stays locked until the file is complete.
Can we keep our LexisNexis data if we move to Zenoo?
Yes. Keep the providers you use today under your own contracts, LexisNexis included, and add others when you need them.
Does RiskNarrative have case management?
Yes. Its own pages describe referral and case management, and end-to-end case management for alerts, reviews and investigations. The difference with Zenoo is that the case holds every check on the customer, from every provider, with the Inbox, tasks, discussion and full history in one place.
How long does a move take?
Four to six weeks to production is typical, depending on your providers and systems. Your team can pilot on real cases before anything is switched over.
Is RiskNarrative the same as TruNarrative?
Yes. TruNarrative was founded in Leeds in 2016 and acquired by LexisNexis Risk Solutions, part of RELX, in 2021. It is now called RiskNarrative.
