Executive Summary

Sell-side and buy-side compliance teams and surveillance operations are drowning in manual autopsies of trader performance drift and trading anomalies, a process that is slow, inconsistent and expensive—large firms can spend weeks on single incidents and still miss subtle behavior that leads to enforcement risk. Regulators are increasing fines and demanding auditable evidence, so firms need faster, more repeatable ways to detect and explain drift across orders and communications. You could build a cloud-native platform that ingests low-latency order and activity telemetry plus communications metadata, applies explainable multimodal ML to surface drift, and automatically generates prioritized, time-stamped autopsy reports and evidence bundles for auditors. The product would stream anomalies in real time, rank by regulatory risk, and provide human-in-the-loop workflows that cut investigation time while preserving explainability. This is a timely, large opportunity—a $12.0B addressable market (6,000 institutions × $2.0M ACV) driven by rising enforcement, the maturation of explainable AI for multimodal signals, and affordable streaming data platforms. You can stand out by tightly combining multimodal, explainable models with workflow automation and a verifiable audit trail to materially reduce manual review (e.g., from weeks to hours) and lower regulatory exposure; critical challenges are obtaining high-fidelity data, proving model explainability to regulators, and overcoming adoption friction in entrenched compliance teams, so start with focused pilots at a few large institutions to validate ROI.

Market Opportunity

Detect trader performance drift and automate compliance autopsies targets a $12.0B = 6,000 financial institutions × $2.0M ACV total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 12% YoY RegTech/market surveillance growth (MarketsandMarkets, industry reports).

Key trends driving demand: Regulatory enforcement and fines are increasing, raising demand for automated, auditable compliance tools that reduce manual review time.; AI and explainable ML models are now capable of multi-modal anomaly detection (time-series + communications metadata), enabling practical autopsy automation.; Cloud-native streaming and low-latency data platforms make it feasible to ingest order and activity telemetry in real time at reasonable cost.; Shift to remote and hybrid trading workflows increases the incidence of 'slow bleed' behavioral drift that periodic spot-checks miss..

Key competitors include NICE Actimize, Behavox, Nasdaq SMARTS.
