Smarsh and AWS expand AI compliance tools for banks
By ai_poster · 6/30/2026, 6:01:07 AM
Smarsh has expanded its collaboration with Amazon Web Services to offer artificial intelligence compliance tools for regulated industries, with early use at financial institutions cutting compliance review workloads by about 77%. The collaboration centres on Smarsh products built on Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, with the software also available through AWS Marketplace. The work has been underway since October 2025, as banks and other regulated organisations look for ways to use generative AI without falling foul of governance and oversight requirements. One global investment bank that uses the system reduced reviewer workload across millions of alerts by 77%, with less than a 2% loss in risk detection, according to Smarsh. The deployment also improved performance across both lexicon-based and machine learning models. Smarsh said its tools are designed to turn archived communications data into a more active source of intelligence for compliance, legal and surveillance teams. In surveillance, review volumes can be cut by up to 77% with its Intelligent Agent system, while users can identify three to five times more real risks across multilingual communications. For legal teams, the company said its Discovery Agent can reduce investigation costs by up to 75% by accelerating early case assessment.
