ScalFraud

Detecting and understanding fraud mechanisms

ScalFraud is a causal AI agent designed to detect and understand fraud mechanisms. It goes beyond simple reactive detection to model the cause-and-effect relationships behind fraudulent behavior, test control scenarios, and anticipate emerging risks — whether in banking fraud, insurance fraud, or other sensitive environments.

Identify weak signals and hidden patterns

Simulate the impact of new controls or regulations

Strengthen resilience against emerging risks

Use Cases

Banking use case for moving from fraud detection to fraud understanding: Causal analysis of fraudulent behaviors

Classical approaches detect signals after the fact. ScalFraud models cause-and-effect relationships to understand fraud mechanisms and anticipate risks before they materialize.

  • Test detection scenarios on rules and behaviors
  • Identify the factors that truly cause fraud
  • Reduce false positives and improve alert precision

Insurance use case for anticipating and controlling fraud: Causal analysis of claims and behaviors

Traditional approaches rely on rules or correlations. ScalFraud models cause-and-effect relationships to reveal causal fraud mechanisms, simulate scenarios, and secure decisions in complex environments.

  • Reveal the causal mechanisms behind fraud
  • Simulate fraud scenarios to test the impact of control measures
  • Improve alert reliability and decision quality

The Problem

Financial institutions face structural limitations:

  • Models based on rigid rules
  • "Black box" AI that is difficult to explain
  • Low capacity to detect new cases
  • Limited labeled fraud data
  • Complex and multidimensional data

Result:

  • Too many false positives
  • Lack of confidence in decisions
  • Operational and regulatory risks

The Solution

ScalFraud introduces a causal approach to fraud.

The Projector™ platform enables you to:

  • Identify the causes of fraudulent behavior
  • Combine observed data with business expertise
  • Generate realistic synthetic fraud profiles
  • Select the truly determining variables
  • Simulate the impact of different factors

Each model is:

  • Explainable
  • Interpretable
  • Usable by compliance teams

What You Can Do

With ScalFraud, you can:

  • Detect emerging fraud patterns
  • Improve alert precision
  • Significantly reduce false positives
  • Prioritize high-value cases
  • Strengthen the effectiveness of fraud teams

Results

The models developed enable:

  • A significant improvement in detection performance
  • Better generalization to unknown cases
  • A reduction in operational costs related to false positives

Above all:

  • You understand why an alert is triggered
  • You strengthen internal and regulatory trust
  • You accelerate decision-making

Unlike Traditional Approaches

  • You don’t just detect → you explain
  • You don’t undergo models → you master them
  • You don’t react → you anticipate

Frequently Asked Questions

Causal fraud detection
ScalFraud models the cause-and-effect relationships behind fraudulent behavior, enabling detection of emerging patterns that rule-based systems and black-box AI miss.
Reduce false positives at scale
By understanding the true causes of fraud, ScalFraud dramatically reduces false positive rates — freeing compliance teams to focus on high-risk cases and reducing operational costs.
AML and regulatory compliance
Generate explainable, auditable fraud detection results that meet AML and CFT regulatory requirements. Strengthen your compliance posture with transparent, traceable decision logic.
