Fraud Detection

Detect Fraud
Before You Extract.

100+ forensic detectors analyze metadata, fonts, structure, and pixel patterns, catching tampering invisible to the human eye. Hundreds of document signatures. Zero templates to train.

You Can't Extract Data
You Can't Trust.

Document fraud is accelerating. AI makes forgeries easier, and traditional verification can't keep up. The numbers tell the story.

$40B1

projected U.S. fraud losses from generative AI by 2027.

~6%2

of financial documents submitted online show signs of fraud or manipulation.

244%3

year-over-year increase in digital document forgeries in 2024.

57%3

of all document fraud is now digital forgery, surpassing physical counterfeits for the first time.

Inside the PDF.
Every layer, checked.

100+ independent detectors scan across 6 forensic domains. Each detector is deterministic. No LLMs, no hallucinations.

  1. A bank statement that looks right to a reviewer. Under that page, a PDF is a stack of layers, and an edit usually leaves a trace in one of them.

  2. Which tool wrote the file, and how many times it was saved. A page written in a different style from the bank's other pages points to an edit.

    Page rewritten by another tool

  3. A digit typed in later often comes from a font, or a cut of a font, that the rest of the statement never uses.

  4. What software reads can differ from what is drawn. Here the page shows 7 250,00 while the text underneath says 1 250,00.

    Text matches what is drawn

  5. The original amount can survive in a layer switched off for display, right under the new one.

    Hidden layer content

  6. Text can stay in the file but outside the visible page, like a footer cropped out of view.

    Text hidden outside the page

  7. The numbers must agree with each other: an IBAN that passes its checksum, transactions dated inside the statement period.

  8. Signals are consolidated into findings, scored across forensic domains, and assigned an actionable verdict.

Verdicts You Can Act On.
Not Scores You Have to Interpret.

Every document gets one of four verdicts, backed by explainable findings. No guesswork, no thresholds to tune.

Trusted

Matches a known institutional document signature. Layout, metadata, and structure are consistent with known authentic templates. Auto-approve with confidence.

—

Normal

No evidence of modification found. Minor anomalies may exist but are consistent with standard document creation workflows.

Warning

At least one trace worth a human look: a sign of modification or an inconsistency in the file.

High Risk

Strong evidence of manipulation. Content tampering, font splicing, or structural anomalies detected across multiple forensic domains.

Every Document Examined
From Every Angle.

Independent detectors operate across six forensic domains. When multiple domains flag the same document, the verdict carries more weight.

Content Integrity

Verifies that document content hasn't been altered, overlaid, or rewritten after creation.

Typography Forensics

Analyzes fonts, text spacing, and typographic consistency to spot inserted or modified text.

Metadata Analysis

Checks document metadata for signs of tampering, including inconsistent dates and missing properties.

Structural Analysis

Examines internal PDF structure for hidden layers, unusual complexity, or traces of post-creation editing.

Media Forensics

Flags AI-generated imagery, spliced photos, and other signs that embedded images have been fabricated or altered.

Security Analysis

Validates digital signatures, detects embedded scripts, and checks for modifications after signing.

Stronger together: A single anomaly can be noise. When independent domains flag the same document, the verdict reflects that convergence.

Not Just What's Wrong.
What's Right.

Every document receives trust indicators: positive signals that confirm authenticity. When they all pass, you can auto-approve with confidence.

Hundreds of Financial & Institutional Document Signatures

Curated template library, growing continuously

Holofin maintains a curated library of document signatures from hundreds of financial institutions, government agencies, insurers, and corporate issuers. When a document matches a known signature, it earns the highest confidence level: Trusted.

Fraud Detection That Lives Inside
Your Document Pipeline.

Unlike standalone fraud tools, Holofin runs forensic analysis as a native step in your workflow, alongside classification, segmentation, and extraction. One pipeline. One API call.

Verify, then extract

Structural checks run before extraction, so a tampered file can be stopped early. Checks on the figures run once they are read.

One API, full pipeline

No separate vendor for fraud, classification, and extraction. One integration, one response.

Workflow-native routing

Route documents by verdict. Auto-approve trusted. Escalate warnings. Block high-risk.

Built to Check,
Not to Collect.

Holofin's fraud detection examines how a document was built: metadata timestamps, font tables, PDF revision history, image statistics, structural patterns. Where a check needs the figures, such as an IBAN checksum or the dates on a statement, it reads them only to test them against each other.

Sensitive financial data, personal information, and trade secrets remain private.
