IVIX's AI-Powered Platform Revolutionizes Financial Crime Detection

Israeli-founded startup IVIX has secured $60 million in a Series B funding round to enhance its artificial intelligence-driven software that helps governments and law enforcement agencies combat financial crimes like money laundering, sanctions evasion, and tax non-compliance. This investment, led by O.G. Venture Partners with participation from Insight Partners, Citi Ventures, and others, brings IVIX's total funding to $85 million.

Founded in 2020 by security experts Mattan Fattal and Doron Passov, IVIX leverages large language models (LLMs) and advanced graph analytics to scan publicly available data, cryptocurrency networks, and global e-commerce marketplaces. The platform identifies anomalies and hidden connections that traditional methods often miss, having already helped agencies in the US, Europe, and Asia uncover billions in illicit assets.

CEO Mattan Fattal emphasized the complexity of the technology, stating, "This is the most complex technology I've ever worked on." IVIX plans to use the funds to advance research and expand its workforce from 60 to 150 employees within a year, aiming to tackle the global $20 trillion shadow economy that operates beyond traditional investigative reach.
