Solution Description

1. Solution Overview & Business EffectivenessWhat is FRAML? FRAML (Fraud and Anti-Money Laundering) is a next-generation, AI-enhanced graph-powered intelligence platform designed to combat financial crime through advanced network analysis, real-time pattern detection, and intelligent case management.

Core Technology Differentiator: Graph + AI Unlike traditional rule-based AML systems that operate on tabular data, FRAML leverages Ultipa's high-performance graph database to: - Discover hidden relationships across customers, accounts, transactions, and properties through multi-hop traversal (up to 10 hops) - Detect complex money laundering patterns (layering, structuring, circular flows) that are invisible to traditional systems - AI-powered insights for risk assessment, report generation, and pattern recognition - Real-time monitoring with sub-second query performance on billion-scale datasets
