ThetaRay
AI AML for Cross-Border Payments and SWIFT Networks
ThetaRay is an AI-powered AML analytics platform specializing in cross-border payment monitoring and SWIFT-integrated transaction screening. Founded by AI researchers from IBM and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, ThetaRay pioneered the application of unsupervised machine learning to AML — detecting anomalous payment behaviour without requiring pre-labelled training data. This makes it particularly powerful for identifying novel and unknown typologies that rule-based systems miss. The platform is certified by SWIFT and integrated into the SWIFT network, making it a go-to solution for correspondent banks managing complex cross-jurisdictional payment flows. ThetaRay also offers a cloud-based version for fintechs and payment companies operating cross-border payment services at scale.
