Overview
Ravelin develops fraud prevention technology for online merchants and payment service providers. Its core product uses machine learning and link analysis to detect fraud and voucher abuse in real time, providing recommendations to block or mitigate risky transactions. The system integrates via APIs and is designed to work across e-commerce and fintech environments. Ravelin differentiates itself by combining ML-driven scoring with link-analysis to uncover complex fraud patterns that may evade standard rule-based systems, enabling high-accuracy, fast risk assessments. The company pursues a subscription-based model with pricing tiers tied to transaction volume and service level, and also offers consulting and custom integrations. Its goal is to help digital businesses secure transactions, reduce financial losses, and scale fraud prevention as their volume grows.
