Software lab · Belgium & Switzerland

Software for workwhere mistakes are expensive.

PentaLab is a software lab. We build KrabyFlow, a portfolio tracker for people who invest their own money, and NNSFlow, screening software for compliance teams at banks. Same habits in both: rules you can read, figures you can trace, and code engineers can maintain ten years from now.

Built for

  • Investors across Europe
  • Swiss financial institutions
  • On-premise or hosted in the EU

Built for the audit

For banks, the artifacts ship with the install.

A procurement reviewer should not have to ask. NNSFlow comes with the documentation, runbooks, and evidence a security and compliance review expects to see — on day one, in the customer tarball.

Auditor Pack

Controls register, key lifecycle, SoD matrix, FINMA / nFADP / GDPR / ISO 27001 / SOC 2 crosswalk.

DR Runbook

Eight disaster-recovery scenarios with an annual drill schedule. Bank captures dry-run records as SOC 2 evidence.

Pen-Test Report

Adversarial threat scenarios run live against the system, with reproducible commands and verdicts.

HSM Simulation Guide

Three-tier rehearsal program before any witnessed change window. Failure modes drilled deliberately.

Aligned withFINMA Circular 2023/1·Swiss nFADP Art. 8·GDPR Art. 32·ISO 27001 A.8.24·SOC 2 CC6.x

How we work

Four principles, no exceptions.

The same principles run through every product and every engagement.

Your data stays yours

NNSFlow deploys inside the institution’s own infrastructure. KrabyFlow never asks for a bank or broker login, runs on servers in the EU, and exports everything as one file.

Compliance by design

Audit trails, retention rules, and deletion that really deletes are part of the data model from day one — not patched on after the first regulator visit.

Evidence over claims

Every decision the software makes can be traced: a screening result to its source and hash, a buy-plan score to the figures it came from. Reviewable years later.

Built to last ten years

Boring stack. No chasing trends. Code a different engineer can pick up and a regulator can still understand long after the original team has moved on.

Services

Custom work, on the same foundations.

Beyond our products, we partner with institutions that need software they can stake their license on. A small number of engagements per year.

Custom dashboards

Internal tools and analytics dashboards for risk, compliance, and operations teams. Built fast, designed for the people who actually use them.

On-premise deployment

We help institutions deploy and operate compliance software inside their own data center — from hardware sizing to disaster-recovery playbooks.

Custom software

End-to-end builds for regulated workflows that don’t exist off the shelf. Same audit-first standards we hold our products to.

Who’s behind this

Antoine Bedaton, founder

Systems engineer at Eurocontrol, building software for European air-traffic infrastructure. PentaLab is where I build software for industries with the same level of operational seriousness — finance and compliance first.

I started PentaLab because regulated industries deserve tools designed by people who take audit, reliability, and security as seriously as the regulators do. KrabyFlow started as the tool I used for my own portfolio, and became a product once friends asked for it.
