DataVisor, the leading AI-powered fraud and AML platform, announced Vera, the first suite of conversational AI agents for battling financial crime. Vera redefines how institutions manage risk: teams give instructions in plain language, and AI agents execute them across the entire fraud and AML lifecycle. By replacing time-intensive manual processes and workflows, it introduces a faster, more adaptive, and intelligent operating model built for the demands of modern financial crime.

Fraudsters are weaponising AI, scaling attacks, and exploiting vulnerabilities faster than humans can respond. DataVisor’s 2026 Fraud & AML Executive Report highlighted this AI “Readiness Gap,” finding that only 23 per cent have the right infrastructure, while 74 per cent of leaders agree AI-driven fraud is a top threat. Vera helps close the gap by bringing unparalleled agility, intelligence, and adaptability directly into fraud and AML operations.

“With Vera, for the first time, financial institutions can outpace AI-driven attackers,” said Yinglian Xie, CEO and Co-Founder of DataVisor. “By unlocking unparalleled speed and intelligence, we are redefining the playing field and enabling a more proactive defence against AI-driven fraud.”

This new operating model enables institutions to seamlessly translate intent into action across fraud and AML operations. Ian Watson, Head of Risk Research at Celent, noted: “DataVisor’s conversational AI agents show how true agentic technology can accelerate fraud prevention without sacrificing control. Initiated through a chat, conversational AI agents turn analyst intent into production-ready controls with governance automatically embedded.”
