Real-Time AI Fraud Detection
Detect anomalous transactions in milliseconds using ensemble ML.
Predictive MLClassical MLScaledHigh riskHigh complexityVery High valueTime-to-value: 6–12 months~220% est. ROI
Overview
Combine gradient-boosted models with graph neural networks to score every transaction sub-50ms, escalating borderline cases to human reviewers and feeding outcomes back into the model.
Business Problem
Card-not-present fraud losses are increasing 18% YoY and rules-based systems generate >60% false positives, eroding customer trust.
AI Solution
Ensemble of gradient boosting + graph neural network scoring every transaction in <50ms, with human-in-the-loop review for borderline cases.
Business Value
Reduces fraud loss by 30–55% and false positives by 40% — translating to multi-million USD annual savings for a mid-size issuer.
