Robinhood Transforms Financial Crimes Investigations Using Amazon Bedrock
Discover how Robinhood, the financial services firm, is using generative AI to help analysts investigate financial crimes more effectively and efficiently.
Overview
Robinhood Markets Inc. (Robinhood) is on a mission to democratize finance for all. As such, the company needs to keep pace with rapid growth on its platform, as well as evolving risks, and is always looking for innovative, scalable tools to streamline operations while maintaining precision. When the company identified an opportunity to augment its financial crimes (FinCrimes) investigations using generative AI, Robinhood chose to work with Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS drives innovation by delivering secure, customizable foundation models for generative AI, helping customers meet compliance and data privacy requirements. Robinhood knew that the secure infrastructure AWS provides, along with support for advanced AI workflows and responsible AI, would be a perfect fit for its generative AI–powered FinCrimes solution.
To support analysts throughout the investigative life cycle, the company developed a FinCrimes Agent—a secure, integrated generative AI solution designed to augment investigative workflows. Using the FinCrimes Agent to synthesize customer and transactional data into high-quality investigative summaries, Robinhood reduced the time and effort its analysts spend on investigations.
