What We Do
Flagright sets the modern standard for AI-native transaction monitoring. The platform enables financial institutions to centralize detection, investigation, and reporting of suspicious activity, streamlining regulatory workflows and strengthening financial crime controls. A high-performance, no-code scenario builder with sub-second API response times powers real-time monitoring, supported by tailored rules, dynamic risk profiling, and simulation tools that reduce false positives and improve decision accuracy. This transaction monitoring foundation is enhanced by fully integrated AML screening that links each transaction and entity to global sanctions and watchlists; dynamic risk scoring that embeds behavioural and contextual risk directly into detection logic; and centralized case management that automates alert triage, investigation workflows, and SAR filing, maintaining audit-readiness across jurisdictions. Flagright’s AI Forensics suite strengthens compliance operations across four critical areas: screening (reduces false positives in AML checks), monitoring (augments alert investigation capabilities), quality assurance (accelerates QA processes), and governance (simplifies policy management and regulatory compliance). Financial institutions moving from fragmented tools to Flagright report a 93% reduction in false positives, 80% lower compliance costs, and a 27% drop in operational errors, with implementation typically completed within weeks. With customers across six continents and offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and Germany, Flagright delivers a transaction monitoring solution that scales with growth and adapts to evolving threats.
