When to pick CreditorWatch
- You want continuous monitoring of a counterparty's credit signals (defaults, court actions, scores).
- You're running collections and need ASIC alerts.
- You want a credit score plus PPSR in one place.
When to pick Hoist Assets
- You're doing transactional due diligence: your AI agent runs the source check, reads an Evidence Pack, and moves on.
- You want MCP, API, or CLI access for your AI tool or platform.
- You don't need credit scoring and have your own underwriting model.

Migration
If you primarily use CreditorWatch for monitoring, keep it. If you primarily use it for transactional PPSR pulls, plan to layer Hoist for the PPSR portion once paid searches are available through account access, and let CreditorWatch handle the monitoring side.
FAQ
01Can I use both?
Yes, lots of customers do. CreditorWatch for monitoring + scoring, Hoist Assets for the PPSR + ABN diligence step at deal time. The two products don't overlap meaningfully.
