## The Problem

Forensic and controller teams only spot Fraud Investigation fraud during annual review — and by then the pattern has compounded over 10 months of undetected leakage.

## What We Build

AI monitors IDEA transactions in real time for duplicate payments, split invoices, ghost vendors, and round-dollar patterns — flagging anomalies within 24 hours instead of 10 months.

## Tools & Integrations

- IDEA
- ACL Analytics
- Relativity
- Google Drive

## How It Works

1. **Discovery call.** We map your current transaction anomaly & fraud flagging process and identify where AI saves the most time.
2. **Build & integrate.** We build the workflow and connect it to the tools you already use — no software changes required.
3. **Review & refine.** You review the results, we fine-tune until it matches your standards, then it runs on autopilot.
