T1Local specialized (chain analytics)
On-chain AML and sanctioned-address screening
C5 Settlement orchestration / C6 Custody orchestration
It screens every deposit and withdrawal before the transaction is finalized: against sanctions lists, known mixers and risky address clusters. On a hit, the withdrawal automatically stops and waits for human review.
Why: High-volume, repetitive screening where a local model tuned for chain analytics runs cheaply and fast, and the sensitive address data stays in.
T2Frontier vision and reasoning, human in the loop
KYC document and PEP adjudication
C7 Client (onboarding, KYC/AML)
It reads and cross-checks the onboarding documents, flags the contradictions and PEP or sanctions matches, then prepares a decision proposal. The final approval is always the compliance officer's.
Why: It needs document understanding and judgment at once, so the frontier layer with visual and reasoning ability, but the decision stays with a human.
T3Local fine-tuned, human approves
Settlement and reconciliation discrepancy detection
C4 Clearing and netting / C5 Settlement orchestration
It compares expected and actual settlements, surfaces the unmatched item and discrepancy, then proposes a concrete resolution step. The proposal is approved by the clearing team before execution.
Why: A well-contextualized, repetitive reconciliation pattern that a fine-tuned local model handles accurately and cheaply.
T4Pattern model and frontier case write-up
Trade surveillance across venues
C2 Execution / C3 Position and risk
From the order flow arriving from multiple venues, it flags suspicious patterns, for example wash trading or spoofing. The frontier layer takes the suspicious cases and prepares them with a reasoned write-up for supervisory review.
Why: The high-volume screening goes to a fast pattern model, the case write-up to the rarely, more expensively called frontier layer: so cost follows the signal.
T5Frontier reasoning, a human approves every step
Treasury and liquidity copilot
C8 Treasury and liquidity
It sees the positions and the liquidity situation, proposes reallocation between rails and wallets, and justifies the move. Execution only happens after human approval.
Why: It needs judgment and seeing the connections, with rare calls, so frontier reasoning, but with a strict human gate because money moves.
T6Frontier code (a real AI review routine)
Engine change-risk review on every PR
Core (platform engine)
It runs on every change request, reviews the change for risk and regression, and gives concrete comments to the developer. The merge decision is made by the code owner.
Why: Our live AI code review routine caught real security bugs in open-source projects, which needs the frontier layer tuned for code.
T7Mid-tier and RAG
Support and client communication triage
C7 Client (portal and API)
It understands and categorizes incoming requests, assembles a draft answer from the internal knowledge base, and escalates the urgent case. The answer is always sent by a human.
Why: Our internal RAG assistant saves about 100 work hours a week across 24 users, and for triage the cost-effective mid-tier and source-bound RAG are enough.
T8Agentic frontier, a human executes
Operations incident copilot
Ops (observability)
From the observability data it assembles the picture of the incident, correlates the signals and proposes a concrete intervention plan step by step. The intervention is carried out by the on-call human.
Why: It calls for multi-step, tool-using reasoning, so an agentic frontier layer, but the actual action is triggered by a human.
