The challenge

Their existing rules engine flagged fraud in nightly batches — hours too late — and generated so many false positives that good customers were getting blocked at checkout.

Our approach

  1. 1

    Stood up a streaming pipeline that scores every transaction in under 50ms as it happens.

  2. 2

    Trained and evaluated an ensemble model on historical fraud, tuned for precision so legitimate payments sail through.

  3. 3

    Added a review console and feedback loop so analysts' decisions continuously retrain the model.
