Financial organisations are under pressure to prevent financial crime using AI but must also meet strict regulations. They need full control over their data and clear, trustworthy decision-making models—yet face a shortage of skilled AI and machine learning professionals.

Its models are explainable, automatically generated, and run directly on clients’ systems, ensuring data stays secure and decisions remain transparent.

“The investment from TIN Capital and ROM Utrecht Region contributes to the further strengthening of Sygno’s technology and market approach,” said Sjoerd Slot, CEO of Sygno. “The support from these partners underscores the importance of reliable, ethical, and European alternatives within the AI sector.”
