Riskified, headquartered in Tel Aviv, helps businesses to realize the potential of eCommerce by making it safe, accessible, and frictionless. Their eponymous platform allows online merchants to create trusted relationships with their consumers. Leveraging machine learning that benefits from a global merchant network, the platform identifies the individual behind each online interaction, helping merchants eliminate risk and uncertainty.
PitchBook is excellent for building a rolodex of contacts, especially for firms which may be newer and lacking an established reputation within their given industry. I have used it as a tool to identify groups which may be interested in equity investments in one-off real estate deals, though the platform more prominently features groups which are more interested in programmatic/JV fund structures. PitchBook can also be useful as a tool for identifying industry trends, as it tends to capture creation of new funds and their investment appetites at any given time.
Riskified is the perfect tool if your current set up is based in lots of manual review and high chargebacks rate. Once implemented it will inmediately increase the authorization rate as well as decrease the chargeback rate significantly. For a company that needs automated decision on blocking abusers it also makes sense, specially using the Policy protect returns and item limit modules.

Collaboration; Riskified builds strong relationships with their clients and works to always meet the clients' needs
Ascend; This is a great way for Riskifieds clients to meet, collaborate and learn from each other
Innovations; Riskified puts a huge emphasis on listening to their clients and finding a way to meet their needs, whether it's chargeback related, fraud screening related or abuse related.

It would be nice to have the best parts of the deal tab merged into the general information tab for a company.
If possible, gather more information on certain executives. There are use cases where our clients want us to research candidates who may not have much information on LinkedIn or RocketReach.

Missing functionality/ explanation: not having full understanding why some orders with multiple "red flags" are accepted/approved by Riskified
Missing functionality: It would be great if there was an option to resubmit an order after approving a second look (so that the customer doesn't have to place a second order)
The support I've received isn't always uniform (sometimes the agent will ask me to provide additional information about an order, sometimes they won't. It seems to be random?)

We are likely to renew our use of Riskified. Their solution has become a critical component of our fraud prevention strategy and day-to-day operations. The combination of increased approval rates, reduced chargeback risk, and operational efficiency has delivered consistent value. Additionally, their collaborative approach and alignment with our customer experience goals reinforce our confidence in continuing the partnership long term.

I think its a great platform as is. Its usable and we get most of the information as and when we need. I don't like the landing page after login, so I don't like to go to PitchBook every day to review daily updates on the industry. It's way too cluttered and requires MFA every time

It's very easy to use. When an interaction is declined, there's reasoning located on the right side of the screen. It's incredibly easy to use Single-Sign-On to log into the account, and explaining that to new team members is very easy. The process for adding new team members is easy and the FAQ's are very helpful.

The overall support for PitchBook is about average. It is not excellent for two primary reasons. First, PitchBook can run slow from time to time, and I cannot copy and paste from the Chrome extension. I have found neither of those issues to be a function of the computer I am using. However, the PitchBook support team has proved helpful on several occasions.

The account management is great and very responsive, but as previously mentioned, the company does not seem to be very proactive with spotting exiting integration issues or things that could be wrong from technical point of view. I would like to see Riskified doing more proactive integration monitoring and more regular technical reviews.

I also use SignalNFX, but it doesn't exist in the dropbox. Signal is a much more practical tool when it comes to a preliminary search, and when it comes to connecting with the right person. It scrapes your gmail history and linkedin to find who you're really connected to and figures out how to leverage that to get an intro. Sales NAVIGATOR is better for massive outbound, but not very relevant otherwise. PitchBook's real value is in the database. It won't help you reach out, but it sure will find you every single VC firm that could ever invest in your company.

I would say that the main difference between Riskified and Signifyd is the level of client service, which drives success in other aspects. We did not have a dedicated account manager with Signifyd, so there was no one to deal with issues. Signifyd's billing is also very messy, and we found that they did not reimburse us for a significant amount of chargebacks. Riskified's billing is easy to reconcile, and we've never had that issue.

Since implementing and working with Riskified we have seen a steady decrease in our fraud losses on our e-commerce orders. Riskified is able to quickly adjust its models to mitigate new trends
By eliminating the need to "challenge" orders we have been able to save on staffing needed for manual review and we have seen a decrease in callback rates for our fraud reviewed orders.
