AI Innovation: Revolutionizing Check Payments and Fraud Detection

Overview of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and deep learning targeted for banking, check payments, and fraud detection.

AI Innovation for Financial Institutions

Artificial Intelligence has revolutionized banking by driving powerful automation and dramatically improving fraud detection. Routine, time-consuming processes such as transaction processing, compliance checks, reporting, and customer onboarding are now automated, allowing banks to operate faster, reduce costs, and minimize human error. This shift enables financial institutions to scale efficiently while employees focus on higher-value, strategic work.

Artificial Intelligence was built to handle processes that were once fully dependent on human intelligence and cognition. But AI is not as simple as this definition may appear. There are many sub-categories and varying levels of AI technologies, involving: 

  • Machine learning
  • Artificial neural networks (ANN)
  • Deep learning
  • Models
  • Convolutional neural networks (CNN)
  • Recurrent neural network (RNN)
  • Computer vision

Financial institutions across the globe are heavily investing billions of dollars in AI technologies. And, according to Datos insights, financial institutions will spend nearly $1B in check fraud detection and prevention by 2028. 

For a brief explanation of each of the above AI technologies, check out our AI, Self-Learning, Deep Learning page.

Vision for AI, ANN and Deep Learning

OrboGraph continues to expand its capabilities for payment automation and fraud detection. This is achieved through new artificial intelligence, self-learning, artificial neural networks, and deep learning models.

We introduced OrbNet AI Innovation Lab as the vehicle to expedite the cycle from concept to development, and then to operationalize the technology by our customers. 

OrbNet AI ushers in a new era of efficiency and customer experience as we continue to strive toward straight-through processing of checks and increased fraud detection.

AI in Banking for Check Fraud Detection

Artificial Intelligence has become a powerful tool in combating check fraud, one of the most persistent challenges in banking. AI-driven systems analyze check images, signatures, handwriting patterns, and transaction data to detect signs of alteration, forgery, or duplication with remarkable accuracy. By leveraging computer vision and machine learning, banks can automatically identify inconsistencies such as mismatched fonts, altered amounts, or suspicious endorsement patterns, enabling real-time decision-making before fraudulent checks are cleared.

Unlike traditional rule-based systems, AI continuously learns from new fraud attempts and evolving criminal tactics. This adaptive intelligence allows banks to reduce false positives while strengthening protection for both customers and institutions.

Financial institutions of all sizes are leveraging OrbNet Forensic AI technology for On-Us and Deposit fraud detection to  detect counterfeit checks, forged signatures, and altered checks. OrboNet Forensic AI is now trained to detect fraudulent checks utilizing security symbol analyzers and analyzes check deposits for transit fraud.
