AutoRek, the leader in enterprise financial controls and reconciliation automation, announced the acquisition of Grath, an innovative fintech recognised for its AI-driven approach to reconciliation and compliance challenges in financial services. The acquisition gives customers new AI-enabled capabilities for automated reconciliation, providing firms of every size a governed, audit‑ready route to automated reconciliation and AI-enabled operations.

Grath is a London-based reconciliation and regulatory compliance technology company, founded in 2019, serving banks, payment providers, brokers and fintechs from offices in the UK, UAE and Australia. Earlier this year, Grath launched Topa, enabling financial services teams to integrate a matching engine, FS‑trained machine learning models and an agentic reasoning layer for exception handling directly into their own systems, ideal for customers that prefer to build reconciliation capabilities in‑house.

Together, AutoRek and Grath give customers a single partner able to meet a broader range of needs across the full reconciliation lifecycle, from data ingestion and matching through controls, risk and compliance management.

THREE ROUTES, ONE STANDARD OF CONTROL

The combined product portfolio gives financial services customers greater flexibility to choose the operating model that best fits their regulatory requirements, technology strategy and deployment preferences, all within a single, governed control framework.

Enterprise Private Cloud - AutoRek's core platform. For customers with high transaction volumes, complex data sources and stringent regulatory obligations, AutoRek’s enterprise‑grade reconciliation platform and AutoRek Intelligent Agent (ARIA) deliver proven controls automation combined with AI‑driven operational intelligence.

Multi-Tenant SaaS - Grath's reconciliation platform. For fast-growing customers that need FCA‑aligned governance without standing up their own infrastructure, Grath’s multi‑tenant SaaS platform enables rapid deployment supported by AutoRek’s global scale and service model.

Embedded AI Infrastructure - Grath's ‘Topa’. For customers building proprietary AI-powered operations, Topa provides reusable matching services and governed agentic reasoning capabilities that can be embedded directly into in‑house systems while maintaining architectural control.
