Feedzai and DataRobot Team Up to Tackle Financial Crime

Feedzai and DataRobot Team Up to Tackle Financial Crime

Anti-fraud solution provider Feedzai has collaborated with DataRobot to enable FIs, merchants, and processors to add DataRobot’s machine learning models to the Feedzai platform. The integration, made possible via the OpenML platform Feedzai announced last year, will enable FIs to automate the creation of advanced machine learning models for fraud detection and AML, providing a higher level of defense against financial crime.

“This integration with DataRobot enables us to further open the Feedzai platform to powerful machine learning algorithms into our platform to offer even more of the world’s advanced AI tools to our customers,” Feedzai SVP of Product Saurabh Bajaj said. “This is how we are democratizing AI for our customers.”

The integration also gives data scientists the ability to conduct data cleaning and analysis, feature engineering, and model training and testing, all within the Feedzai platform. Data scientists can also import external models to the platform, as well as take advantage of Feedzai’s other tools, including its automated rules engine, advanced link analysis, Risk Ledger, and Genome to enhance fraud detection further.

“Our partnership with Feedzai gives banks and other financial institutions the flexibility to use the machine learning technology and tools that best fit their needs,” SVP of Business Development for DataRobot Seann Gardiner said. “The combination of Feedzai’s impressive threat detection technology and our world-class automated machine learning capabilities create a best-of-breed solution to fight fraud with unprecedented accuracy.”

With $5 billion in transactions scored daily, Feedzai protects 10 of the largest 25 global banks from fraud. Last month, the company announced a strategic partnership with Citi, which will feature the integration of Feedzai’s anti-fraud technology with Citi’s Treasury and Trade Solutions. Feedzai also unveiled its latest financial crime prevention solution, Risk Ledger, in December. Risk Ledger leverages the millions of transactions processed via its platform to provide a more comprehensive anti-fraud solution.

Founded in 2009 and based in San Francisco, California, Feedzai demonstrated its fraud prevention technology at FinovateEurope 2014. The company has raised $76.1 million in funding, and includes Data Collective DCVC, Sapphire Ventures, Citi Ventures, and Oak HC/FT among its investors.
