Acoru secures €10 M to predict and prevent financial fraud before it happens
Madrid-based Acoru has secured €10 million in Series A funding to advance its mission of stopping financial scams before they unfold. The investment was led by 33N Ventures, receiving support also from existing investors Adara Ventures and Athos Capital.
Founded in 2023 by Pablo de la Riva Ferrezuelo and David Morán, Acoru focuses on anticipating fraudulent behavior rather than reacting after losses occur. Its AI-driven system studies how accounts behave and interact, allowing banks to detect unusual patterns that may signal emerging scams or money mule activity. This proactive approach enables financial institutions to intervene earlier and reduces the cost of fraud-related losses. The company is also fostering a shared intelligence network where participating banks can exchange anonymized insights while staying within regulatory boundaries.
The new capital will enable the company to expand its technology and reach across Europe, grow its technical team and refine its predictive models.
