Hudson Labs uses artificial intelligence to systematically assess fraud risk. Our AI models collect and assess unstructured data in securities filings, investor calls and press releases, helping you detect malfeasance before the stock price collapses.  

Hudson Labs' core forensic features with illustrative examples:

1. The Hudson Labs forensic risk score
