About Datawhisper:
DataWhisper is an agentic AI company building robust, production-ready AI solutions for the payments industry and regulated financial services. We turn the complexity of autonomous AI — governance, compliance and auditability — into a competitive advantage for acquirers, payment processors, fintechs and financial institutions. Our Merchant Growth Agent turns unmanaged merchant portfolios into autonomous revenue engines. Acquirers, PSPs and payment processors typically actively manage only 10–15% of their merchant base, losing 3–7% annually to preventable churn. Our governed multi-agent AI continuously detects risk, plans retention, negotiates and closes — across 100% of the portfolio, around the clock. Agents are trained on your strategy and policies, so every action is commercially aligned and compliance-ready. Underpinning everything we build is SmartInsights Cortex — our Agentic AI Operating System purpose-built for regulated industries. Cortex is a full-stack platform that orchestrates teams of autonomous agents, enforces governance at the architectural level and generates production-ready, regulatory-compliant agentic engines from a use case description. In minutes, not months. DataWhisper has a strong technical footprint: Google UK AI First Accelerator alumnus, Google Partner, NVIDIA Inception partner, LSE Launchpad and Scalup member at the UK Payments Association. Founded and led by Luís Lancos , 20+ years in Tier-1 global payments, former SVP Technology at Elavon/US Bank, and named in Computing Magazine's IT Leaders 100. The team combines deep payments expertise with deep technical knowledge in AI and agentic systems.
