DV The launch of Vera, a conversational AI platform for financial crime prevention, is presented as a significant advancement that will help institutions outpace AI-driven attackers and close the 'AI Readiness Gap', indicating strong positive sentiment.

DataVisor Launches the First Conversational AI Agents for Financial Crime Prevention MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--( BUSINESS WIRE)-- DataVisor, the leading AI-powered fraud and AML platform, today announced Vera, the first suite of conversational AI agents for battling financial crime. Vera redefines how institutions manage risk: teams give instructions in plain language, and AI agents execute them across the entire fraud and AML lifecycle. By replacing time-intensive manual processes and workflows, it introduces a faster, more adaptive, and intelligent operating model built for the demands of modern financial crime.

DataVisor’s conversational AI agents show how true agentic technology can accelerate fraud prevention without sacrificing control.

Fraudsters are weaponizing AI, scaling attacks, and exploiting vulnerabilities faster than humans can respond. DataVisor’s 2026 Fraud & AML Executive Report highlighted this AI “Readiness Gap,” finding that only 23% have the right infrastructure, while 74% of leaders agree AI-driven fraud is a top threat. Vera helps close the gap by bringing unparalleled agility, intelligence, and adaptability directly into fraud and AML operations.

“With Vera, for the first time financial institutions can outpace AI-driven attackers,” said Yinglian Xie, CEO and Co-Founder of DataVisor. “By unlocking unparalleled speed and intelligence, we are redefining the playing field and enabling a more proactive defense against AI-driven fraud.”

This new operating model enables institutions to seamlessly translate intent into action across fraud and AML operations. Ian Watson, Head of Risk Research at Celent, noted: “DataVisor’s conversational AI agents show how true agentic technology can accelerate fraud prevention without sacrificing control. Initiated through a chat, conversational AI agents turn analyst intent into production-ready controls with governance automatically embedded.”

A New Operating Model for Fighting Financial Crime

Vera's conversational AI interface enables fraud and compliance teams to direct AI agents in plain language, automatically executing actions across the platform. It provides capabilities that have never been available to fraud and compliance teams, including:

Chuck Subrt, Fraud & AML Practice Director at Datos Insights, said: “Bringing conversational AI together with embedded execution agents puts more control directly in the hands of financial crime leaders. DataVisor's approach reflects the kind of practical innovation the industry demands to keep pace with increasingly sophisticated threats.”

With this update, risk teams now can unleash the power of AI agents executing end-to-end across fraud and AML workflows, from strategy design to optimization, investigation, and reporting with high speed, consistency, and scale. Early results from DataVisor customers, including NASA Federal Credit Union and a digital financial platform serving 10 million customers across lending, banking, and financial planning, demonstrate meaningful impact:

“Vera represents a new era in financial crime defense. The ability to proactively adapt through AI agents strengthens our readiness and accelerates our response to emerging threats,” said Doug Nahas, COO of NASA Federal Credit Union. “With a strong roadmap and thoughtful deployment, DataVisor is translating AI innovation into real, measurable value.”
