Watches. Detects. Blocks. Reports
Watches every supplier change, every payment instruction, every invoice in real time. Catches bank-detail rewrites, payment redirection, exec impersonation, duplicate payments, and Benford anomalies before money leaves. Astral cross-references supplier identity changes against the canonical knowledge graph. €100M+ in fraud patterns intercepted across customers, < 1 second decision latency, zero late detections.
By the numbers
The use case
One supplier-bank-change scam empties €500K in 48 hours and your team finds out at the next reconciliation. Sanctions get screened monthly while fraud happens daily. AP can't tell a real supplier email from a phishing one anymore. Internal audit shows up after the fraud and asks why nothing flagged it.
Fraud Agent watches every supplier change, every invoice, every payment instruction in real time. It cross-references Astral's canonical identity graph, runs sanctions and PEP screening on every transaction, detects executive-impersonation patterns, catches duplicate-payment attempts across entities and currencies, and runs statistical anomaly detection (Benford's law, outlier amounts, off-pattern timing) on every payable. Suspicious payments are held pre-execution, routed to named owners with the full reasoning chain attached.
For who
Capabilities
Flags every supplier IBAN, BIC, and account-number change mid-stream. Cross-checks against Astral's canonical identity graph, KYS/KYB partners, and historical patterns. Holds payments until the change is verified by a named owner.
Recognizes CEO-fraud email patterns — spoofed display names, lookalike domains, urgency-and-secrecy language, off-pattern routing requests. Surfaces to the AP queue with the reasoning chain attached, never executes silently.
Real-time screening on every payment against OFAC, EU consolidated, UK HMT, UN, Swiss SECO, and 30+ national lists. PEP and adverse-media coverage included. Hits trigger an automatic hold and compliance notification.
Detects duplicate-invoice attempts across years, legal entities, currencies, and supplier-name variants. Astral entity resolution catches the "Groupe RG" vs "RG TRANSPORT SAS" trick before the second payment leaves.
