Acoru Raises €10M Series A for AI-Powered Bank Fraud Detection
Acoru, a Madrid-based fintech, announced a €10M Series A funding round led by 33N Ventures. The company specializes in building infrastructure to detect and prevent AI-powered bank fraud and money laundering, an increasingly critical capability as threat actors adopt sophisticated AI tools. Acoru's technology is designed to integrate into existing banking platforms and financial services infrastructure, serving as an embeddable compliance and security layer.
The funding will be deployed to enhance the platform's AI models and expand across European markets. The investment comes at a time when fintech deals surpassed $1B in late October 2025 across 25 global transactions, with AI-enabled infrastructure and security among the top investment themes. Acoru's focus on countering AI-driven financial crime positions it at the intersection of BaaS infrastructure and regulatory technology, a segment expected to see sustained growth as fraud sophistication increases.
