Enfuce
How a fintech company built a reusable foundation for production-grade agentic AI

 

Contactless payment transaction

Enfuce is a Finnish company that provides cloud-based payment processing and card-issuing infrastructure, operating in the fast-moving and highly regulated fintech and payments industry. In this environment, innovation with AI must go hand in hand with security, scalability, and compliance.

To move to production-grade AI use cases faster, Enfuce wanted to build a robust and scalable foundation for agentic AI. The ambition was not only to deliver one use case, but to establish the architecture, infrastructure, governance, and development patterns needed to support future business-facing AI solutions.

Recordly joined the collaboration through a senior Data & AI consultant who worked as an embedded member of Enfuce’s team and was the sole external expert in the delivery. Working closely with Enfuce’s data scientists, analytics engineers, and business subject matter experts, Recordly helped build a secure and scalable platform foundation that enables Enfuce’s teams to develop new agentic AI use cases faster.

The first use case was fraud dispute automation: a customer support process where agents need to perform several checks, review available information, and apply human judgement before moving a case forward. After less than two months, Enfuce had an AI agent in production that can process fraud dispute tickets in the background, prepare a preliminary assessment, and support human agents with detailed reasoning.

The challenge

Enfuce identified a strategic opportunity to adopt AI in a structured and responsible way. The company set out to create a robust foundation for agentic AI use cases, designed to support the security, governance, access control, scalability and operational reliability expected in a fintech environment.

Reusability was a core design principle. Rather than developing a standalone automation, Enfuce wanted to establish a repeatable foundation that could support future use cases. This required the architecture, infrastructure, integration patterns, governance model and development approach to be designed for scalability and ongoing expansion from the outset.

Fraud dispute handling was selected as the first use case because it is a business-critical process that requires multiple checks, structured reasoning, and human judgement. Support agents need to review information from different sources before deciding how a case should move forward. As volumes grow, these recurring checks can become increasingly time-consuming, making the process a strong candidate for AI-supported preparation and assessment.

Beyond developing an AI agent, Enfuce needed a solution designed for responsible use in a regulated business environment. The solution needed to interact securely with company data, support human decision-making with clear and reviewable outputs, and integrate naturally into the day-to-day workflows of customer support teams.

Recordly was well positioned to help because the engagement required a highly sought after combination of skills, including cloud infrastructure, AI architecture, agentic AI development, MLOps and GenAIOps thinking, as well as the ability to work independently in a complex fintech environment.

The solution

Instead of a large delivery team, Recordly and Enfuce’s Data & AI engineers were able to move quickly from prototype to production while building both the Agentic AI platform foundation and the first fraud dispute automation use case.

The project was kicked off with an on-site workshop that resulted in a working prototype: an AI agent that could fetch data from Snowflake through a model context protocol (MCP) server and categorize fraud disputes. It leverages strong data models from the analytics engineering team, reducing rework and improving speed.

After the prototype, the project moved into the main implementation phase. Two workstreams progressed in parallel. First, the production infrastructure and platform foundation were put into place. Second, a focus on translating fraud dispute rules, scheme rulebooks, and subject matter expertise into logic the agent could use to support case assessment.

A key design principle was to use large language models (LLMs) only where they could provide real value, as not every step in an agentic workflow needs a language model. For deterministic checks, such as verifying whether a submitted transaction exists in the database, plain code is cheaper, faster, and more reliable. LLMs are most valuable when ambiguity is involved, such as interpreting natural language input from a human or reasoning over less structured information.

As a result, the final workflow combined deterministic code with LLM-based inference. This made the solution more reliable, cost-efficient, and suitable for a production fintech environment.


Under the hood

In practice, the work included designing the cloud architecture for the Agentic AI platform and building the infrastructure foundation with production readiness and reusability in mind.

The agent was hosted in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime and connected to Snowflake data through an MCP server. The fraud dispute rules and assessment logic were defined together with Enfuce’s customer support and domain experts, ensuring the solution reflects the actual support process and the checks agents need to perform.

The platform includes reusable components and patterns for future AI agents, including secure data access, access management, governance, monitoring, and operational guardrails. This gives Enfuce a foundation where AI agents can be developed, managed, and monitored centrally, while still fitting the requirements of a fintech.

The business impact

Fraud dispute handling requires careful review, multiple data checks, and human judgement. With the AI agent in place, the initial assessment can be prepared in the background, allowing the human agent to focus on validating the recommendation, applying judgement, and ensuring quality.

Early estimates indicate that the time required for the initial assessment can be reduced by 80%. The value is expected to grow as dispute volumes increase, because the agentic solution gives Enfuce a way to scale recurring checks and information gathering without increasing manual work at the same pace.

Beyond the first use case, Enfuce now has a reusable foundation for future agentic AI solutions. The natural next step is to expand the platform with additional business-specific AI agents and use cases. Potential future areas include fraud monitoring and review, compliance-supporting workflows, operational case handling, internal knowledge assistants, and customer support use cases where AI can answer recurring questions, prepare case context, and flag edge cases for human review.

This allows support teams to spend more time on complex cases, customer-specific situations, and decisions that require human judgement or escalation.

What Enfuce said

“Recordly brought deep senior expertise that complemented our in-house capabilities. Their consultant worked as part of our team, collaborating closely with our data scientists, analytics engineers, and domain experts to build a secure and scalable foundation for agentic AI in a demanding fintech environment.

The first use case, fraud dispute automation, moved from prototype to production in around two months, creating a strong foundation for future agentic AI solutions.”
