Definition
Fraud detection AI identifies suspicious transactions, accounts, or behavior patterns that might indicate fraudulent activity.
How It Works
AI learns normal patterns from millions of legitimate transactions. When something unusual happens - like a card used in two countries within an hour - the system flags it for review.
The AI considers hundreds of factors: location, time, amount, merchant type, and user behavior patterns.
Why It Matters
AI fraud detection saves billions of dollars annually and protects consumers from identity theft. It works much faster than human reviewers and catches subtle patterns people miss.
Banks, credit card companies, and online platforms rely heavily on these systems.
