What is a Foundation Model?
- A foundation model is a large AI model trained on enormous volumes of data, which can then be applied to many related tasks rather than being built for one narrow purpose.
- In this case: instead of separate systems for fraud detection, transaction routing and checkout, a single model trained on payments data handles all of them — because the underlying patterns are the same.
What Problems It Addresses
Vulcan is designed to tackle four issues across India’s digital payments ecosystem:
- Payment failures
- Fraud
- Transaction routing
- Checkout-related friction
