Ocrolus expands fraud detection capabilities with Resistant AI integration

New integration protects lenders from AI-generated deepfake documents and forensic-level fraud.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ocrolus, the AI workflow and analytics platform for lenders, today announced it has expanded the fraud detection capabilities of Ocrolus Detect through an integration with Resistant AI's Documents forensic engine. The enhancement combines Resistant AI's best-in-class horizontal document fraud detection with Ocrolus' use-case-specific intelligence around income documents, creating the strongest document fraud detection solution on the market. The integration also directly addresses the growing threat of AI-generated documents: as AI tools make it faster and easier than ever to manufacture convincing fraudulent financial records, Ocrolus is investing more significantly in defense. The expanded Detect offering is now live across Ocrolus' customer base.

Designed with scalable and flexible deployment options, Detect assists lenders, financial institutions and fintech and consumer platforms by identifying signs of tampering and suspicious activity in financial documents such as bank statements, pay stubs and W-2s. Today, 12% of loan applications processed through Ocrolus contain suspicious activity. As reported by the American Bankers Association, fraud losses can account for up to 15% of annual losses for SMB lenders — meaning even a modest reduction in fraudulent applications funded can have a material impact on a lender's bottom line. The new integration with Resistant AI addresses this need by combining Ocrolus' analysis with forensic inspection, including the detection of deepfake and generative AI-created documents that are virtually impossible to identify through visual review or traditional checks alone.

The expansion supports multi-document batch processing and delivers clearer, more actionable decisions that are easy to interpret. Resistant AI's forensic engine, trained on the threat patterns seen across more than 200 million global documents, detects sophisticated document manipulation techniques that complement Ocrolus' existing fraud signals, combining algorithmic signals derived from document content with deep metadata and structural analysis, which allows lenders to evaluate both what a document says and how it was created. Customers can continue using Detect's detailed Authenticity Score while also enabling simple outcome categories mapped to recommended actions such as high, medium or low risk. Each result is fully explainable, supported by structured flags and reason codes and can be configured to match a client's specific review process and risk tolerance.

"Our customers are being asked to make faster decisions while dealing with increasingly sophisticated document manipulation," said Andrew Rains, Chief Revenue Officer, Ocrolus. "By expanding Detect with Resistant AI's capabilities, we're giving customers clearer outcomes they can act on immediately to approve legitimate applications with confidence, backed by the depth, transparency and configurability they need to manage risk at scale."

"The threat landscape has fundamentally changed. The widespread availability of high-quality forgery tools powered by AI, combined with recurring leaks of personal data, has created a new level of risk that can only be addressed by adding strong document integrity to content verification. By combining Resistant AI's forensic engine with Ocrolus' existing strengths, we're giving lenders a defense capable of meeting the sophistication of modern fraud head-on," said Martin Rehak, CEO of Resistant AI.

The expanded Detect solution is designed to benefit multiple stakeholders, from fraud analysts seeking clear evidence and visual highlights, to underwriters who need simple, actionable verdicts, to risk and policy owners focused on precision, recall and governance.

"Fraud sophistication in equipment finance has outpaced what any manual process can handle. Ocrolus Detect gave us the ability to catch fraud at scale without slowing down the speed our clients expect — and that combination is what keeps us competitive. At this point, tools like this aren't optional; they're foundational to running a modern lending operation," said Toby McDonough, President, Beacon Funding Corporation.

Ocrolus and Resistant AI will host a live webinar, "What manual review misses: The new reality of fraud in lending," on October 22, 2026, at noon ET. Speakers will cover what modern document fraud looks like, where manual review falls short and how lenders can build automated checks into the funding workflow without slowing clean deals. The session includes live audience Q&A. Register at ocrolus.com/webinar-fraud-detection-resistant-ai-oct-2026.
