SymphonyAI Launches Sensa Risk Intelligence to Modernize Financial Compliance With Proven AI Expertise

AI-native platform combines decades of financial crime experience with advanced AI to cut investigation workloads, improve detection accuracy, and speed compliance modernization

SymphonyAI, a global leader in Vertical AI product platforms, today announced the launch of Sensa Risk Intelligence (SRI), an AI-native platform built on decades of regulatory and financial crime expertise. Designed for trusted deployment in critical financial environments, SRI helps institutions reduce compliance costs, improve detection accuracy, and modernize their operations with confidence.

As regulations evolve and alert volumes surge, compliance teams face growing operational strain. Sensa Risk Intelligence brings together SymphonyAI’s proven regulatory expertise and AI leadership to transform compliance into a more adaptive, data-driven discipline—bringing together large language models, advanced analytics, and agentic AI.

Tackling the Total Cost of Compliance with Trusted AI

SRI builds on SymphonyAI’s decades of experience delivering trusted AML solutions to global financial institutions. The platform adopts a fully integrated modular architecture:

• Sensa Investigation — Cuts manual investigations by at least 50% through intelligent AI-driven Agent automation.

• Sensa Agent — Accelerates processes end-to-end with a digital workforce of AI agents, using prebuilt workers for common use cases or custom agents tailored to specific compliance and operational needs.

• Sensa Detection — Manages and continuously improves risk models to adapt as regulations and customer behavior evolve.

• Sensa Data — Connects disparate core systems across brands, geographies, and product lines for a unified view of customer risk.

Unlike legacy systems that require years of manual updates, SRI enables financial institutions to go live with the first use case in less than three months and then scale across layers at their own pace—with automatic upgrades that eliminate future rebuilds.

Turning Compliance into a Growth Driver

Industry analysts agree that Sensa Risk Intelligence signals a step-change in compliance technology.

“SymphonyAI has proven its ability to apply advanced AI to complex financial services workflows,” commented Ian Watson, Head of Risk at Celent Research. “With Sensa Risk Intelligence, the SymphonyAI team is bringing this capability to compliance, giving financial institutions faster, smarter, and more autonomous processes to handle today’s regulatory demands, surging transaction volumes, and evolving threats.”

“Compliance solutions have tended to focus on making older models more efficient, but given today’s regulatory demands, surging transaction volumes, and evolving threats, even these models can struggle,” said Sidhartha Dash, Chief Researcher at Chartis Research. “Chartis sees the emergence of AI platforms such as SymphonyAI’s Sensa Risk Intelligence as an important driver of next-generation solutions that optimize existing processes and help financial institutions achieve faster, more effective compliance.”

“With Sensa Risk Intelligence, we’re extending our proven compliance capabilities into a new era of AI-powered performance,” said John Edison, President of Financial Services at SymphonyAI. “Our AI technology not only streamlines compliance, it gives banks the confidence to innovate—launching new products faster, onboarding more customers with deeper risk insight, and expanding into new markets with assurance.”

Differentiation and Market Context

SRI is purpose-built AI-native from the ground up, giving it a clear advantage over three categories of competitors:

• Traditional vendors: Long-established but slow to adopt AI, often layering limited automation onto decades-old architectures.

• Startups: Innovative but fragmented, providing point solutions that lack breadth, scalability, and enterprise-grade experience.

• Horizontal platforms: Powerful data platforms without domain expertise or end-to-end financial crime focus.

By combining 25 years of financial crime expertise with advanced AI, SymphonyAI delivers a purpose-built platform that delivers immediate compliance ROI and positions institutions for long-term innovation.
