The engagement
A tier-1 global bank’s back office resolved cross-border trade disputes manually, taking up to 48 hours per case and requiring specialists to cross-reference SWIFT/Fedwire ledgers against constantly-updated sanctions lists by hand.
What we built
A 6-agent collaborative swarm — Planner, Ledger Reconciler, Sanctions Screener, AML Anomaly Detector, Critic, and a Human-Escalation agent — running inside an air-gapped VPC, with full audit trails for every autonomous action and human-in-the-loop review on any high-risk match.
Outcome
Settlement cycles dropped from 48 hours to 14 seconds, with a 99.98% audit pass rate and $34M in annual manual-review costs eliminated — with zero compliance violations across the first year of production operation.
