DataVisor launches Vera, first conversational AI agents for financial crime prevention

DataVisor has launched Vera, the first suite of conversational AI agents for financial crime prevention. The platform allows fraud and anti-money laundering teams to give instructions in plain language, with AI agents executing them across the entire fraud and AML lifecycle. The launch addresses the AI "readiness gap" identified in DataVisor's 2026 report, which found only 23% of institutions have adequate infrastructure to combat AI-driven fraud, whilst 74% of leaders view it as a top threat. Early results from customers including NASA Federal Credit Union show detection coverage increases of two to three times, false positives reduced by over 40%, and investigation time cut by 20 to 30 times. The platform automates tasks from detection strategy design to regulatory reporting whilst maintaining enterprise-grade governance and control.
