Hoist vs illion.

Honest comparison. Both products have customers who'd be wrong to switch.

Last updated 2026-07-04Researched independently
TL;DR. illion is a credit bureau with live PPSR layered in. If you need credit data or a PPSR search today, use illion or AFSA direct. Hoist provides available ABN and agent-evidence workflows, but its PPSR preview and paid search are currently unavailable and account access does not unlock them. See /trust/afsa-b2g/.

When to pick illion

  • You need credit reports and consumer/commercial scores.
  • You're a debt-collection or risk-management team.

When to pick Hoist

  • You need available ABN or other source-backed agent workflows without credit-bureau data.
  • You want your AI tool to receive source-cited Evidence Cards from supported available checks.
  • You understand separate Evidence Pack exports are prelaunch fixture or unsearched samples, and Hoist PPSR preview and paid search are currently unavailable.
