FRONTEO Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President: Masahiro Morimoto) today uses the in-house developed AI "KIBIT" to detect and audit signs of non-compliance "saki-mori" (reading: Sakimori). We will announce the start of provision.By entrusting us with data for a certain period of time, we can detect signs of compliance violations and rule deviations in companies such as harassment, fraudulent billing, kickback, information removal, cartel / adhesion, and early detection of disturbing movements. Useful for early response.

Many companies are currently auditing email, but the common challenges are time, effort, and completeness.Since there is a limit to the number that can be confirmed at one time, we extract samples and confirm them, or extract them by keyword search, but it is not always possible to find what you want to find.

The AI ​​email audit service launched by FRONTEO will use sample emails provided by customers as teacher data to scrutinize a huge amount of data and divide it into "documents you want to find" and "documents you don't need to find."In addition, we specify sentences that people do not need to see while ensuring accuracy by statistical methods.As a result, not only can the amount of text that people should see be reduced, but scoring is performed according to the degree of urgency, enabling audits with dramatically higher quality and efficiency.Furthermore, if a non-compliance is detected, FRONTEO can promptly move to fraud investigation.This is a service that can only be provided by FRONTEO, which has been involved in 9,400 international proceedings support / fraud investigations.Another feature is that you can choose the system according to your needs, such as monthly or quarterly, instead of running the system all the time.Since the target audience is not fixed and can be changed each time, it is possible to audit multiple departments in order throughout the year.

The limits of visual human wave tactics

Email audits are essential for detecting signs of non-compliance and rule deviations, as emails show a strong sense of internal relationships and corporate culture.However, there is a limit to reading a huge number of emails with a limited number of people.There is also the problem that it is very difficult to judge whether the sentence indicates a problem or not, and it is difficult to secure people who have the skills to judge.In addition to such issues such as time constraints and skills, the mental burden on the auditing side, which tends to make you feel as if you are looking into the behavior of others, is also a point that cannot be overlooked.

AISolve problems by utilizing

In FRONTEO's AI mail audit service "saki-mori", AI "KIBIT" uses a statistical method from a huge amount of data based on a small amount of teacher data to ensure accuracy while "confirmation by humans". Judge "necessary sentences" and "what AI examines (sentences that do not need to be confirmed by humans)".Since the person in charge confirms what is deemed necessary, the time constraints, skill challenges, and mental burden described above can be reduced.

Through the provision of this service, FRONTEO aims to detect compliance violations and rule deviations in companies at the predictive stage, and to respond in time for internal investigations, which is the pre-stage that causes great damage to corporate credit, trust and profits. I will.
