The reason we take on work in Seattle is that the businesses here tend to be sharper about what they want than the brief lets on. AI fraud detection for a Seattle team almost always ends up looking different to AI fraud detection for a downtown Auckland one.
AI fraud detection that lives in your stack, not on a vendor's roadmap. Shipped from Washington.
Our goal is to give Seattle businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What AI fraud detection actually does
Pattern-watching AI for refund abuse, chargebacks, fake reviews, employee fiddles, and odd supplier invoices. Flags weirdness early - before it's a real problem.
- 01 Learns your normal patterns and flags outliers
- 02 Daily anomaly report, not a constant alert flood
- 03 Explainable scoring so you can act with confidence
- 04 Integrates with Xero, Shopify, and POS systems
Built on: Claude DuckDB Postgres Vercel

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of AI fraud detection runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for Seattle businesses first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How AI fraud detection compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Kiwi Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |
Our field notes from Seattle builds.
- Seattle runs on cloud computing, aerospace and coffee, home to the companies whose infrastructure half the internet's AI runs on - AI here means holding up to serious technical scrutiny.
- Two of the world's largest cloud providers are headquartered here alongside a major aerospace manufacturing base. Seattle businesses, even small ones, tend to have someone on staff who can and will check your work.
We work with teams across Seattle: Downtown Seattle · Capitol Hill · Bellevue · Fremont · Ballard · Redmond.

How we build AI fraud detection for a Seattle team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Seattle business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI fraud + anomaly.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing Seattle businesses the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.
The outcome for Seattle teams
Recovers 3-5x its cost in caught fraud within 6 months. For Seattle teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
FAQ
What's the realistic timeline for AI fraud detection with a Seattle?
Most Seattle businesses have their first usable slice in week 5 or 6. We'd rather ship narrow and real than broad and aspirational - your team gets to use the thing well before the engagement is "done".
What does AI fraud detection cost for a Seattle?
Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.
Anyone else in this space using AI fraud detection?
Plenty. Recovers 3-5x its cost in caught fraud within 6 months. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" - it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
AI fraud detection is built behind a small adapter layer specifically so swapping a model provider or a data source is a one-day job, not a re-architecture. Claude, DuckDB, Postgres, Vercel are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
One short call.
