BlackFinint
Follow the Money. Everywhere It Goes.
Your investigators trace a wire transfer to a shell company in one jurisdiction — and hit a wall. The beneficial owner hides behind three more layers. The proceeds scatter across crypto mixers, hawala networks, and trade-based schemes spanning a dozen countries. BlackFinint was built for exactly this: an AI-native financial intelligence platform that maps the entire money flow — from first transaction to final beneficiary — across fiat, crypto, and informal value transfer systems, in real time.
Financial criminals exploit the gaps between jurisdictions, currencies, and regulatory regimes — moving value through a maze of bank accounts, shell companies, cryptocurrency wallets, and informal transfer networks designed to outrun any single agency's visibility. Legacy transaction monitoring systems catch the obvious patterns, but the sophisticated schemes — layered across borders and denominations — pass right through. BlackFinint closes those gaps with an AI-native architecture that fuses transaction data from every channel into a single investigative graph, giving financial crime units the cross-border, cross-currency visibility they need to follow the money to its destination.
Transaction Intelligence
Financial crime doesn't happen in a single transaction — it happens across thousands of them, spanning banks, payment processors, crypto exchanges, and informal channels. BlackFinint ingests and correlates them all, surfacing the patterns that matter.
Cross-Channel Transaction Monitoring
Money doesn't stay in one channel. BlackFinint monitors wire transfers, card payments, mobile wallets, cryptocurrency movements, and trade finance transactions through a unified analysis engine — correlating activity across channels that criminals assume are siloed. When a subject structures deposits at one bank and moves value through crypto at another, BlackFinint connects the dots in real time.
Behavioral Pattern Detection
Rule-based alerts catch yesterday's schemes. BlackFinint's behavioral AI establishes baseline patterns for every entity — then flags deviations that indicate structuring, velocity anomalies, round-tripping, or novel laundering typologies. The system learns continuously from investigator feedback, reducing false positives while catching schemes that static rule engines miss entirely.
Layering & Shell Company Detection
Sophisticated launderers layer value through chains of shell companies, nominee directors, and jurisdictions with weak transparency requirements. BlackFinint automatically traces transaction chains through corporate structures, identifies circular flows designed to obscure origin, and maps the corporate layering strategies that manual analysis would take months to untangle.
Informal Value Transfer Tracking
Billions move annually through hawala networks, trade-based laundering, and unregulated money service businesses that leave no trace in the banking system. BlackFinint correlates trade data, customs records, commodity pricing anomalies, and communication patterns to detect value transfer through channels that conventional transaction monitoring cannot see.
Network Analysis & Entity Resolution
Financial crime is organized crime. Individuals don't launder money — networks do. BlackFinint maps the entire network from fragmentary transaction data, resolving entities across jurisdictions and linking the people, companies, and accounts that form the infrastructure of illicit finance.
Financial Network Mapping
Transform raw transaction data into interactive network graphs that reveal the architecture of money laundering operations. BlackFinint identifies money mule networks, correspondent banking chains, and layered corporate structures — visualizing fund flows across hundreds of accounts and entities in a single investigative workspace that makes complex schemes comprehensible.
Cross-Jurisdiction Entity Resolution
The same individual appears as different entities in different countries — different name transliterations, different document numbers, different corporate roles. BlackFinint resolves identities across jurisdictions using fuzzy matching, document correlation, and behavioral fingerprinting, building unified profiles from fragmentary data scattered across banking systems worldwide.
Beneficial Ownership Tracing
Follow the ownership chain to its end. BlackFinint automatically traces through layers of nominee shareholders, trust structures, and offshore holding companies to identify the ultimate beneficial owners behind complex corporate arrangements. Cross-reference corporate registry data from multiple jurisdictions with transaction patterns to expose control relationships that formal filings deliberately obscure.
Risk Scoring & Prioritization
Not every alert deserves the same attention. BlackFinint's dynamic risk engine scores entities and transactions based on behavioral anomalies, network centrality, jurisdictional risk, and historical patterns — surfacing the highest-risk cases to investigators first. Scores update continuously as new data arrives, so investigators always work the most critical leads.
Why BlackFinint
Most financial crime platforms were built for compliance officers filing SARs. BlackFinint was built for investigators building cases — and the architecture is fundamentally different.
Intelligence-First, Not Compliance-First
Compliance platforms ask "does this transaction trigger a rule?" BlackFinint asks "where did this money come from, where is it going, and who controls it?" The difference is architectural: we build investigative graphs, not alert queues. Every data point is connected to every other, giving investigators a complete operational picture instead of isolated flags.
Crypto-Native Architecture
Not a fiat platform with blockchain bolted on. BlackFinint was built from the ground up to trace value across both traditional finance and cryptocurrency — with native chain analysis for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron, and 20+ blockchains. Trace funds seamlessly as they move between bank accounts and crypto wallets without switching tools or losing context.
From Transaction to Prosecution
Detection without prosecution is just expensive monitoring. BlackFinint maintains full chain of custody from data ingestion through analysis to court-ready evidence packages — with timestamped audit trails, analyst attribution, and automated report generation that meets the evidentiary standards required by prosecutors and judicial authorities across jurisdictions.
Cryptocurrency & Digital Assets
Cryptocurrency is no longer a niche channel for illicit finance — it's a primary one. BlackFinint provides native blockchain intelligence across 20+ chains, tracing value through the mixers, bridges, and DeFi protocols that criminals use to obscure the trail.
Multi-Chain Transaction Tracing
Trace funds across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron, Binance Smart Chain, and 20+ blockchains — including cross-chain bridges that move value between networks. BlackFinint follows the money as it hops between chains, providing continuous traceability even when subjects deliberately fragment transactions across multiple blockchain ecosystems to break the trail.
Wallet Clustering & Attribution
A single entity may control hundreds of wallets. BlackFinint's clustering algorithms group wallets by behavioral patterns, transaction timing, and on-chain heuristics — then attribute clusters to known entities, exchanges, and service providers. Link anonymous wallets to real-world identities by correlating blockchain activity with exchange KYC data and OSINT findings.
Mixer & Tumbler Detection
Mixing services and tumblers are designed to break the chain of traceability. BlackFinint detects mixer usage through transaction pattern analysis, timing correlations, and known service signatures — then applies probabilistic tracing to reconstruct the most likely fund flows through mixing pools, maintaining investigative continuity where other tools lose the trail.
DeFi & NFT Intelligence
Decentralized finance protocols and NFT marketplaces are emerging channels for money laundering and sanctions evasion. BlackFinint monitors DeFi swaps, liquidity pool activity, and NFT wash trading — tracking value through smart contracts and cross-protocol transactions that lack the centralized oversight of traditional exchanges.
Operational Scenarios
How financial crime units deploy BlackFinint to dismantle networks, freeze assets, and secure convictions.
Dismantling Money Laundering Networks
A suspicious transaction report names one account. BlackFinint expands that single data point into the full network — identifying the money mule recruiter, the layering infrastructure of shell companies, the integration point where clean funds re-enter the economy, and the ultimate beneficial owner. Investigators see the complete architecture of the laundering operation, not just one transaction in isolation.
Terrorist Financing Detection
Terrorist financing moves in small amounts through legitimate-looking channels — charity donations, remittances, informal transfers — deliberately designed to stay below detection thresholds. BlackFinint correlates micro-transactions across multiple channels and geographies, identifying the funding patterns that support operational cells even when individual transactions appear routine.
Sanctions Evasion Tracing
Sanctioned entities don't use their own names. They operate through front companies, nominee directors, and networks of intermediaries designed to circumvent screening systems. BlackFinint traces the actual flow of value — not just the names on the transaction — identifying sanctions evasion through beneficial ownership analysis, trade flow anomalies, and correspondent banking pattern detection.
Complex Fraud Investigation
Large-scale fraud — investment schemes, procurement fraud, trade-based manipulation — generates transaction patterns that span years and cross dozens of institutions. BlackFinint reconstructs the complete financial timeline, identifies the points where legitimate and illicit funds commingle, and produces the evidence packages that prosecutors need to prove intent and quantify losses.
BlackFusion Ecosystem Integration
Financial intelligence becomes exponentially more powerful when fused with OSINT, cyber intelligence, and other data sources. BlackFinint plugs directly into the BlackScore ecosystem — turning financial data into a force multiplier for every investigation.
Bridge to OSINT
Connect financial entities to their digital footprints. BlackWebINT intelligence flows directly into BlackFinint — linking wallet owners to social media identities, matching shell company directors to forum activity, and enriching financial profiles with open-source intelligence that reveals the people behind the transactions.
Enrich with Cyber Intelligence
Overlay threat intelligence on financial networks. BlackThreatINT feeds — compromised credentials, dark web vendor activity, ransomware payment addresses — automatically enrich BlackFinint investigations, connecting financial crime to cyber-enabled threats and revealing the infrastructure that supports both.
Complete Operational Picture
Every BlackFinint finding flows into BlackFusion's unified knowledge graph — automatically correlated with HUMINT, SIGINT, surveillance, and other intelligence sources. A suspicious wire transfer in BlackFinint becomes a node in a multi-source investigation, connected to communication intercepts, travel records, and associate networks across the entire BlackScore ecosystem.
