Leading banks and payment companies use us to automate risk investigations they run when onboarding and monitoring business customers in Europe, Middle East, USA and Asia.

Our founders have built fraud and credit risk models protecting billions in transactions at Europe’s top fintechs, and we’re taking that experience to revolutionize how financial institutions verify the legitimacy of businesses. With deep expertise in AI-driven risk assessment, we turn unstructured data into powerful insights, helping our customers automate manual reviews, strengthen fraud detection, and improve the onboarding experience for legitimate businesses.

We already work with leading fintech unicorns and banks, are growing fast and we’re looking for ambitious problem-solvers who are excited about using AI to tackle financial crime at a global scale. If you're passionate about making a real impact in the fight against fraud, we’d love to have you on our team! 🚀
