Sardine's platform integrates several key functionalities aimed at combating fraud and ensuring compliance:

- Fraud Detection: Utilizing behavioral analysis and machine learning, Sardine detects scams before they occur by monitoring subtle changes in user behavior across the customer lifecycle—from onboarding to transaction monitoring.
- Risk Scoring: The platform employs advanced risk-scoring models to evaluate potential threats in real-time.

The inception of Sardine was driven by the founders' experiences in the fintech space, particularly their recognition of the fragmented nature of fraud prevention services available to cryptocurrency and neobanking sectors. Ranjan's background in cybersecurity and machine learning, alongside the team's collective expertise, led to the development of a unified API platform designed to tackle various fraud risks comprehensively. The name "Sardine" is a nod to Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), which are critical in reporting financial crimes.
