CUBE3.AI Unveils AI-Driven Technology to Detect and Block Rising Tide of New Scams and Fraud

Palo Alto, California, United States, September 5th, 2024, Chainwire

AI-driven platform detects fraud at its earliest stages, preventing billions in potential crypto losses

As scams grow more sophisticated and increasingly target crypto for laundering billions in losses, CUBE3.AI is pioneering a new era in fraud prevention. Today, the company announced major enhancements to its platform that bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3, enabling real-time risk assessment and the proactive blocking of scams like pig butchering, ransomware, sextortion, and others.

In 2023, investment scams alone led to more than $4.5 billion in losses, with 86% linked to cryptocurrency. A substantial portion of these scams originate in Web2—through social media interactions, fraudulent websites, or other online channels—before transitioning into crypto where recovering stolen assets becomes nearly impossible. While the industry has traditionally focused on either Web2 or Web3, CUBE3.AI leverages unique expertise and proprietary AI technology that seamlessly integrates both realms, enabling the detection and prevention of fraud across the entire digital landscape. This approach addresses a critical gap by offering a holistic view of fraud patterns across both Web2 and Web3, enabling early detection, thorough risk assessment, and timely intervention.

“The most damaging scams often involve complex journeys that span both traditional and crypto spaces. We’ve built a solution that looks at the full picture, from initial contact in Web2 all the way to final transactions in Web3,” said Einaras Gravrock, CEO of CUBE3.AI. “Real-time fraud prevention is a complex challenge that requires expertise in both realms, along with advanced technology capable of interpreting diverse data and understanding context. Our platform is more than just technology—it’s about restoring trust. Whether it’s protecting businesses from dirty money or safeguarding people from devastating losses, this solution marks a significant step forward in the fight against digital fraud.”

CUBE3.AI’s enhanced platform integrates data from social media, online platforms, and dark web sources, combining it with real-time Web3 transaction monitoring. Proprietary AI models trained to interpret the context of this data generate a comprehensive risk score, empowering businesses to act swiftly before scams escalate. By offering seamless visibility into both Web2 and Web3 activities, CUBE3.AI allows organizations to preemptively block threats that would otherwise go unnoticed until it’s too late.

“As criminals increasingly rely on AI to scale their attacks, our response has to be just as sophisticated. Our AI-powered tools connect the dots between Web2 and Web3, giving us a unique edge in identifying threats before they escalate,” said Chris Griffiths, CTO of CUBE3.AI. “By offering this level of visibility and speed, we empower businesses to make informed decisions and protect their users in real time.”

These new capabilities provide exchanges, financial institutions, and service providers with the early detection and risk management they need to avoid facilitating fraud, protect user trust, and minimize financial losses. By offering a solution that integrates data from both Web2 and Web3, CUBE3.AI sets a new standard in fraud prevention, helping businesses stay ahead of rapidly evolving threats.

Biz2X’s business lending platform to start delivering capital to Watermelon Ecosystem merchants in the MENA Region

NEW YORK and DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biz2X®, a global fintech headquartered in New York City whose small business finance platform is used across countries like the U.S., India and Australia with over $10 billion USD funded to date, today announced that the technology platform is powering a new SME financing program from food & beverage platform company, Watermelon Ecosystem.

This strategic partnership will pair Biz2X’s leading small business financing platform with Watermelon's digital ecosystem of restaurateurs and other F&B entrepreneurs, a growing sector in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. At its core, this deal expands digital access to financing for SMEs, thereby powering economic transformation in the region and supporting the ambitions of food business owners.

Through the Biz2X® digital platform, food businesses that are part of the Watermelon ecosystem will have access to business financing to fuel their growth. Biz2X will generate funding offers for businesses that use the Watermelon platform.

Businesses that use the platform to purchase ingredients and inventory for their restaurants or other food business will be prequalified for access to capital to simplify their purchases, increasing average order value and making transactions more efficient. Merchants that are selling inventory and other goods or services through the Watermelon Ecosystem will be able to finance their outstanding invoices, ensuring they can reinvest faster in their business growth.

Platform financing offers are based on Biz2X’s leading underwriting technology using proprietary data about merchant transaction history derived from purchasing behavior by Watermelon’s clients.

“This deal pairs Biz2X’s leading financing technology platform with Watermelon's digital ecosystem of restaurateurs and other F&B entrepreneurs,” said Omar AlShamsi, founder of Watermelon Ecosystem. “Together, we will support digital access to financing for SMEs to power economic transformation and food security in the region while we support the ambitions of business owners.”

“Thanks to our partnership with Biz2X and its award-winning digital lending technology, food business owners in our ecosystem will have unmatched financial resources to support their growth,” he added.

Key benefits of this partnership:

  • Fast Access to Capital for Merchants: Merchants in Watermelon’s ecosystem gain fast access to financing options through Biz2X’s embedded financing platform, with loan processing times as fast as 24 to 48 hours depending on the lender.
  • Data-Driven Finance Offers: The Biz2X® platform uses a merchant’s history of processing transactions with Watermelon to prequalify them for financing, minimizing document requests and expediting approvals.
  • Seamless Invoice Financing Process: Merchants that want to finance outstanding invoices will enjoy a fast and seamless loan onboarding process, facilitated by the integration of Biz2X’s lending solutions within Watermelon’s platform.
  • Multi-Lender Finance Ecosystem: Merchants will be matched with top offers from multiple lenders, including various banks and alternative finance providers.
  • End-to-End Loan Lifecycle Management: Lenders gain access to continuous digital monitoring of their active loan portfolios, enhancing regulatory compliance and minimizing risk exposure.

MENA lenders that partner with Biz2X can now offer financing thanks to this embedded finance partnership. By leveraging Biz2X’s digital underwriting platform, these lenders, including banks, non-bank lenders and fintechs, can establish customized credit parameters and underwriting guidelines. With access to Biz2X’s comprehensive data ecosystem, they can quickly obtain detailed financial transaction data for each applying merchant, expediting precise credit decisions. This is the latest in a series of Biz2X embedded finance partnerships in the Middle East, highlighting the platform’s wide impact globally.

“Embedded finance for SMEs is the future. Through our Biz2X® platform, we provide timely access to capital with less friction so that businesses can purchase the inventory they need with confidence,” said Rohit Arora, CEO of Biz2X, a subsidiary of Biz2Credit. “Business owners no longer have to wait until they have cash on hand in order to purchase things they need to operate and grow.”

“Vertical software companies like Watermelon see the value of delivering a complete client experience that includes access to financing to fuel their clients’ success. Watermelon is a partner with an excellent business in the food & beverage space. We are proud to empower their merchants with financing that fuels growth,” Arora added.
