Spot mule accounts when they sign up

Block fake and synthetic identities, deepfake photos, and accounts that keep getting recreated with KYC, KYB, liveness checks, and device fingerprinting.

Send suspicious profiles through extra verification or manual review. Stop new mules from getting in before they can do anything.

Find mule behavior while it's happening

Watch payments going in and out for rapid movement, money spreading to different accounts, weird payment routes, and first-time connections to risky accounts.

Check login patterns and sessions for random spikes or different devices showing up. Put holds on transactions, set limits, or add verification steps before money moves.

Find whole mule networks

Connect accounts that share devices, IPs, photo patterns, addresses, payment methods, wallets, or the same people they send money to.

See hub patterns and groups in a network graph that shows you how everything links together.

Lock down payouts and withdrawals

Check bank accounts, cards, and wallets before letting money out as payouts or refunds.

Look at payment methods alongside device info and behavior to catch mules cashing out. Add tighter rules for risky users and run checks when they try to withdraw.

Handle fraud and AML together

Deal with fraud alerts and AML alerts in one place instead of switching between tools.

Get the full picture of identity, devices, transactions, network connections, and past decisions all in one view. Package up cases for your FIU with all the evidence and explanations already there.
