This generative AI assistant summarizes match signals, identifies false positives, and explains outcomes in plain language, ensuring regulatory readiness for financial institutions. Its secure integration within Socure’s platform has gained traction among clients seeking efficient, accurate sanctions and PEP screening.

Internal AI Tools: SocureBuddy and LegalBuddy

SocureBuddy, a generative AI assistant, provides employees with instant access to company knowledge, enabling faster onboarding, contract checks, and process clarification. LegalBuddy, building on this, offers on-demand legal support, accessing policies, contract statuses, and compliance guidance. Both tools, powered by verified data, reduce delays and enhance collaboration, allowing teams to focus on delivering world-class solutions.

Driving Innovation with H1 2025 AI Hackathon

Socure’s H1 2025 AI Hackathon saw 72 team members across 16 teams develop prototypes using tools like CrewAI, Sagemaker, and Claude. These projects, ranging from AI-written workflows to embedded flows, are accelerating Socure’s roadmap, with several moving to production. This culture of innovation underscores Socure’s commitment to empowering teams to tackle evolving fraud threats.

Industry Leadership and Impact

Socure’s "AI Everywhere" strategy addresses the growing complexity of digital identity and fraud, driven by AI-based threats like deepfakes and synthetic identities. With a customer base of over 2,800 organizations, including 18 of the top 20 banks, Socure verified 2.7 billion identity requests in 2024, doubling 2023 figures. The 2024 acquisition of Effectiv expanded its capabilities into the $200B enterprise fraud market, enhancing RiskOS™ with no-code workflows and third-party integrations.

“Socure is humbled and energized to be the platform of choice for the world’s largest companies,” said Johnny Ayers, Founder & CEO. “These initiatives are foundational investments in delivering responsible, explainable AI solutions across identity, risk, and compliance needs.” Socure’s advancements, recognized in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Identity Proofing, position it to redefine trust in the digital economy.
