We are setting a new standard for fraud prevention in lending.
We're proud to announce that Bradley Tompkins, Chief Information Officer of Vergent LMS and Omnia Cnct, has joined DeepXL as Strategic Advisor. This partnership represents more than just a business relationship—it's a strategic alliance built on shared vision and purpose as we tackle one of the lending industry's most pressing challenges.
A Proven Leader in Financial Technology
Bradley Tompkins brings over 25 years of experience leading technology and innovation in financial services, building a reputation for staying ahead of the curve—especially when it comes to solving big industry problems. As CIO of Vergent LMS and Omnia Cnct, Brad oversees one of the most trusted core system platforms serving the lending industry across the U.S., Caribbean, Canada, and South Africa.
But Brad isn't just the CIO of Vergent LMS—he's now a strategic advisor to DeepXL. This alignment isn't coincidence; it's purposeful collaboration as we build something transformational for the industry.
The Growing Fraud Crisis in Lending
The numbers tell a stark story: AI manipulated fraud has become the fastest-growing threat in lending. In the U.S. alone, lenders lost more than $3.2 billion in the first half of 2024. Meanwhile, in Mexico, synthetic identities have surged by 1,200% this year according to security industry reports.
Fraudsters are leveraging AI tools to manipulate IDs, pay slips, and documents that easily pass basic KYC checks. This isn't a future risk—it's happening right now, and traditional detection methods are falling behind.
A Mission-Driven Partnership
Together, we're not just building a product—we're driving a mission forward. Our joint commitment is ambitious but achievable: we're on a mission to cut ID and document fraud by over 90% and help Vergent and Omnia Cnct lenders prevent more than $1 billion in fraud losses over the next 12 months.
This collaboration demonstrates what's possible when vision, technology, and industry leadership align to fight against fraud. We're building something that goes far beyond traditional partnerships.
The Solution: Real-Time AI Defense
Brad shared his perspective on why this partnership represents the future of fraud prevention:
"This is what I've been searching for. A scalable, intelligent, and flexible solution that we can build with—and one that actually moves the needle. We've seen firsthand how manual review of documents is slow, expensive, and error-prone. DeepXL's AI detection model offers seamless API integration, cuts operational costs, and improves the experience for both lenders and their customers."
Beyond Technology: A Frontline Alliance
This isn't just a distribution partnership—it's a frontline alliance in the war on fraud. By embedding DeepXL's AI directly into the Vergent platform, we're enabling real-time detection of synthetic fraud at the point of attack.
But this collaboration isn't just about blocking bad actors. It's about building a lending environment that's safer, faster, and more cost-effective for millions of borrowers and lenders alike.
As Brad emphasized: "By embedding DeepXL's AI directly into the Vergent platform, we're enabling real-time detection of synthetic fraud—at the point of attack. But this isn't just about blocking bad actors. It's about building a lending environment that's safer, faster, and more cost-effective for millions."
The Future of Lending Starts with Trust
This collaboration shows what's possible when vision, technology, and industry leadership align to fight against fraud. The future of lending starts with trust—and that trust starts with truth behind every document and ID.
Brad's experience in building resilient, scalable financial technology platforms combined with DeepXL's cutting-edge AI fraud detection creates a powerful foundation for transforming how the lending industry approaches fraud prevention.
Industry Impact and Innovation
With lending platforms processing millions of applications annually, the stakes couldn't be higher. Traditional manual review processes are not only slow and expensive—they're increasingly ineffective against sophisticated AI-generated fraud.
Our integrated solution represents a fundamental shift: from reactive fraud detection to proactive, real-time prevention. This isn't just about improving existing processes; it's about reimagining what's possible when advanced AI defense meets proven lending infrastructure.
