Engineering the future: AI innovation at Deriv

At Deriv, AI is more than just a tool—it’s how we innovate, automate, and scale. Our goal is to infuse AI across all operations, using virtual employees to handle mundane tasks, freeing our teams to focus on high-impact innovation. From software development and security to compliance and trading, AI Agents will help us drive smarter, faster, and more resilient financial solutions.

AI for business operations: Speed, efficiency, and precision

Deriv’s AI-driven development pipelines are designed to streamline code generation, testing, and debugging. We're leveraging Cline, Claude 3.7, and reasoning models like GPT-4o to streamline the entire development process—from specification and design to coding and testing. This ensures a high-quality, context-aware codebase—reducing errors and optimising software performance.

Optimised infrastructure & database management

AI is playing a crucial role in database optimisation by analysing PostgreSQL logs to detect inefficiencies and suggest targeted improvements. Large Language Models (LLMs) are integrated into customised MCP servers, enabling automated error detection and scaling system reliability. Additionally, AI-driven chaos engineering practices leverage multi-agent systems for real-time anomaly detection and self-healing infrastructure, ensuring our tech stacks remain resilient under any condition.

AI-driven security solutions & risk management

With the evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, Deriv has embraced AI-powered security solutions. The SecAI bot, built with Claude-3.7 and AWS GuardDuty, provides real-time security alert analysis and response automation. ThreatHunter, powered by vector databases and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), allows proactive incident detection, while the SecArch bot offers visual threat modelling and zero-trust security recommendations.

AI also enables disaster recovery modelling with reinforcement learning frameworks, ensuring optimal failover continuity in mission-critical scenarios.

KYC & regulatory compliance automation

In today’s regulatory landscape, staying compliant requires significant resources. AI significantly enhances Know Your Customer (KYC) automation, allowing real-time document verification, fraud detection, and data structuring using OCR and heuristic algorithms.

Key AI innovations in regulatory compliance include:

• AI-powered Compliance Slackbot: Answers compliance queries with up-to-date regulatory citations.
• Regulatory Guide Systems: AI-driven contextual guidance that ensures adherence to global regulations.
• RAG-powered Legal Automation: Leveraging AI to automate legal document processing cost-effectively.

These automation solutions streamline compliance processes, reducing complexities for our teams while ensuring the highest security standards.

Revolutionising knowledge & document transformation

Deriv’s AI capabilities extend beyond security and compliance into knowledge and document management. By implementing AI-generated knowledge bases, we enable smarter information retrieval systems using RAG-based architectures, LangChain-powered pipelines, and multilingual document-processing tools. This ensures financial and operational data is intuitively accessible, structured, and actionable for teams across the organisation.

AI-powered trading technologies & AI in customer experience

AI simplifies complex trading systems, enhancing user experiences and efficiency. Deriv Bot AI, a conversational trading interface, translates user commands into automatable trading strategies. AI-powered fraud detection improves risk management, while personalised trading insights use intelligent data analytics to identify market opportunities dynamically.

Google Vertex AI-powered chatbots also enhance customer interactions. These provide citation-backed, contextually accurate responses, redefining customer service in the financial sector.
