Arva AI funding news – Arva AI secures $3Million in funding

This investment marks a pivotal moment in their journey to transform how financial institutions conduct business verification through the power of generative AI.

Automating KYB to Save Time and Enhance Compliance

Know Your Business (KYB) verification is a cornerstone of regulatory compliance for financial institutions, aimed at mitigating risks like fraud and money laundering.

However, as regulations grow increasingly stringent, banks and fintechs face a mounting challenge: balancing robust compliance protocols with the need for efficient customer onboarding. Traditional KYB processes—heavily reliant on manual reviews by hundreds of compliance analysts—are slow, costly, and prone to bottlenecks.

Arva AI addresses this challenge head-on. Their generative AI-enabled platform automates the labor-intensive tasks of KYB, turning fragmented, unstructured data from registries, social media, websites, and documents into actionable risk assessments.

This, combined with advanced AI document intelligence for fraud detection and data extraction, allows banks and fintechs to onboard businesses in seconds while maintaining the highest compliance standards.

Empowering Compliance Teams Through Innovation

Rhim Shah, CEO and co-founder of Arva AI said, “At Arva, our mission is to make business verification fast, accurate, and seamless, For financial institutions navigating rising costs and stricter regulations, efficient and secure KYB processes are no longer optional—they’re critical.

We’re thrilled to partner with Gradient and our other investors to scale our solution globally.”

Their vision is to develop a comprehensive suite of AI-enabled tools capable of handling all repetitive, low- to mid-risk compliance tasks, freeing compliance teams to focus on higher-level decision-making. By reducing manual review times from days to seconds, Arva ensures financial institutions can meet both operational and regulatory demands efficiently.
