About

We're building technology that helps financial institutions fight financial crime more effectively and efficiently using AI. Founded in Munich in 2018, we started with a simple observation: traditional rules-based systems for detecting money laundering and fraud were generating too many false positives, wasting countless hours on manual investigation while letting real threats slip through. Our founders saw an opportunity to apply explainable AI to this problem, creating a system that could actually learn and adapt to new criminal patterns.

Today, our platform processes billions of transactions across more than 60 countries, helping banks, payment companies, and fintechs reduce false positives by up to 70% while identifying 3-5 times more suspicious activity. What sets us apart is our focus on explainable AI - every decision our system makes can be audited and understood, which matters when you're dealing with regulatory compliance. We've grown from a small Munich startup to a global team working with major financial institutions, but we're still driven by the same mission: making it harder for criminals to abuse the financial system while making life easier for the compliance teams trying to stop them.
