View company profile

Silent Eight's customers in the financial industry are faced with the ever-evolving challenge of combating financial crime, including money laundering and terrorist financing. The sheer volume of transactions and the increasing sophistication of criminals make it incredibly difficult to manually investigate every suspicious activity effectively and efficiently. This is why Silent Eight developed its AI-powered platform – to provide a robust, scalable, and accurate solution. Our customers need to not only comply with stringent regulations but also ensure that their operations are not facilitating illicit activities that have devastating human costs. We empower them by automating and streamlining the alert investigation and resolution process, replicating human reasoning and decision-making with the speed and consistency of advanced AI.

Our AI platform investigates every suspicious transaction, beneficiary, and customer in real-time, providing perfectly researched and explained decisions. This significantly reduces false positives, increases the accuracy of investigations, and enhances the auditability of compliance operations. By leveraging machine learning and, more recently, generative AI, Silent Eight helps financial institutions like HSBC, Standard Chartered, and First Abu Dhabi Bank to not only meet their compliance obligations but also to do so more efficiently, reducing operational costs and freeing up their human analysts to focus on the most complex and critical cases. Our journey began in Singapore with a clear mission: to redefine financial crime prevention and enhance the security and transparency of financial systems worldwide. We understand that our customers operate in a high-stakes environment, and our technology is designed to provide them with the confidence they need to navigate the complexities of financial crime risk. We are committed to being a trusted partner in their fight against financial crime, offering solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also explainable and seamlessly integrated into their existing workflows.
