Feedzai launches IQ platform to fight AI-powered fraud with privacy-first tech

Feedzai

Feedzai has unveiled Feedzai IQ, a new suite of solutions designed to help financial institutions detect and prevent fraud using shared intelligence—without compromising customer privacy.

The launch of Feedzai IQ comes at a time when banks are facing a sharp rise in AI-powered fraud. With more than half of complex fraud attacks now driven by generative AI tools and stolen personal data, financial institutions are under pressure to adapt. However, privacy concerns and regulatory constraints often limit their ability to collaborate across networks, creating silos that leave them vulnerable.

Founded to address the growing threat of financial crime, Feedzai provides cutting-edge solutions that protect banks and payment providers from fraud, money laundering, and other financial risks. Its AI-driven systems analyse vast amounts of transaction data to detect anomalies and prevent threats in real time.

Feedzai IQ is the company’s latest offering, enabling privacy-preserving fraud detection at a global scale. By applying federated learning to anonymised and distributed datasets, Feedzai IQ allows banks to work together by sharing insights—not data. This approach sidesteps the traditional need for raw data exchange, reducing privacy and compliance risks while enhancing security.

Among the key features of Feedzai IQ is TrustScore, a real-time AI-generated fraud risk score powered by network-wide intelligence. The tool delivers up to four times more fraud detection with 50% fewer false alerts. Another core capability, TrustSignals, offers pre-calculated risk indicators that have been shown to increase fraud detection by 27% and improve payment acceptance rates by 5%.

Feedzai IQ builds on insights from over $8tn in annual payment volume and hundreds of financial institutions operating across four continents. It provides real-time intelligence across RTP, transfers, card payments, and digital activity, making it a robust tool for today’s increasingly digital financial ecosystem.

Feedzai chief product officer Pedro Barata said, “We’ve always believed that the true power of AI is only unlocked through access to meaningful, high-quality data. While AI is surrounded by hype today, Feedzai has led the way in applying real AI to real problems—and now, with Feedzai IQ, we’re combining our AI expertise with secure, network-wide intelligence. It’s a breakthrough that takes fraud prevention to an entirely new level.”

Previously, Feedzai acquired DemystData, a provider of data integration and orchestration technology known for its Zonic platform.

According to The Paypers, the acquisition is designed to streamline the data access process for financial institutions by integrating DemystData’s advanced data orchestration tools into Feedzai’s RiskOps platform. Although the financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, the strategic objective is clear: unify external data and AI at scale to simplify Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), identity verification, and fraud detection.
