# Stablerail > Stablerail is the business account for stablecoin companies — one self-custodial account to run USDT/USDC operations: approvals, AML checks, batch payouts, corporate cards, IBANs, ACH, SEPA, yield, and audit evidence for every transaction. Stablerail replaces "Ledger + spreadsheet + approval chaos" with one controlled operating account. AI checks every transaction; humans approve and sign. Built on Privy MPC infrastructure (owned by Stripe). Not a bank and not a custodian — fiat rails and cards are provided by regulated third-party partners after KYB. Legal entity: Stablerail, Inc., 131 Continental Dr, Newark, DE 19713, USA. Founders: Alex Emelian (CEO, former CEO of Simple, a self-custodial wallet with $2B+ transaction volume across 75+ countries) and Oleg Pun (CTO, previously FX infrastructure at UBS and Deutsche Bank). ## Pages -
