About us
Walrus is the leader in B2B payment verification, working with some of the biggest names in VC, PE, and more.
B2B payments are a $1T+ industry and, as the industry pushes further into digitization and faster settlement, fraud is becoming a massive problem — to the tune of $43B in annual losses.
Walrus’s DoubleCheck is quickly becoming the definitive way to collect and confirm payment details, using advanced authentication based on proprietary tech and AI.
Walrus is led by PhD computer scientists and security researchers from Harvard, MIT, and Stanford. We’re backed by one of the world’s leading fintech VC funds, as well as founders and executives of Twitter, Google Maps, Databricks, and Kayak.
