About Zafin

Zafin is an AI platform company for regulated institutions. Built from more than 20 years of operating in demanding regulated technology environments, Zafin brings structure, intelligence and accountability to how critical work, systems and decisions are created, governed and improved.

 

Zafin’s portfolio includes three platforms:

 

  • Zafin AIOS is an end-to-end agent orchestration platform and control plane for governed agentic work. It helps regulated institutions orchestrate work performed by internal and approved third-party agents from intent to governed outcome, with human authority, cost controls and proof of work built into the work path. 
         
  • Zafin Banking Platform is the AI powered banking execution platform for product, pricing, offers, billing, loyalty, relationship and deal logic across retail and corporate banking. It externalizes critical banking logic from legacy environments so banks can launch propositions faster, personalize offers, manage complex relationships and govern how banking value is structured and executed.

  • Zafin IO is the integration platform for regulated institutions. Proven first in banking, it connects data, events, services, workflows and applications across enterprise environments so institutions can connect legacy and modern systems and modernize progressively without disrupting critical operations.

Together, they reflect Zafin’s core discipline: helping institutions move faster while preserving governance, evidence, control and accountability.

Headquartered in Toronto, Canada, Zafin serves institutions across North America, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific.
