A real-world example

For each cardholder, will their single largest transaction exceed $10,000 in the next 30 days?

High-value single transactions — jewelry, electronics, gift cards — are the most common high-dollar fraud pattern. Rules decline transactions over a fixed limit, frustrating legitimate high spenders. Predicting which cardholders will have an anomalously large transaction lets you pre-authorize legitimate ones and tighten controls on suspicious ones.

How KumoRFM solves this

Graph-powered fraud intelligence

PQL’s MAX aggregation focuses on peak value, not totals. Kumo learns individual spending patterns: CH001 (Platinum, avg $4,200) having a $10K+ transaction is normal. CH003 (Silver, avg $650) having a $10K+ transaction is a red flag. The graph reveals device, location, and merchant signals that distinguish legitimate large purchases from fraud.
