Business Challenge

As the platform scaled, manual verification slowed onboarding, unstructured documents required lengthy review, and automation for fraud/compliance was limited. Handling thousands of concurrent requests strained scalability, and AI-driven insights were needed to improve accuracy and speed.

Manual Verifications

Slow, manual processes delayed onboarding.

📄

Unstructured Documents

Time-consuming reviews for high document volumes.

⚙️

Limited Automation

Gaps in fraud detection, compliance checks, validations.

📈

Scalability Constraints

Thousands of concurrent requests taxed the system.

🤖

Need for AI Insights

Improve accuracy and speed with ML-driven insights.
