Best for Digital businesses that want fraud scoring backed by a large shared consortium network rather than building models from their own data alone. Fintechs and banks that need onboarding, payment fraud and AML monitoring in one platform, weighted toward behavioral-biometric detection. Growing merchants and fintechs that want fast self-serve setup and digital-footprint-driven fraud checks before paying for enterprise scale. High-volume e-commerce and marketplace merchants that want fraud models trained on their own data plus fraud-ring detection. Fraud and AML ops teams that want to configure detection rules and run investigations themselves without engineering support.
