What once felt like science fiction is now a serious and growing threat. Fraudsters are leveraging AI-generated voices and videos to bypass security, hijack identities, and exploit weak points in payment systems. And with tech adoption accelerating, these attacks are only becoming more frequent and dangerous.  𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙛𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙖𝙪𝙙 𝙞𝙨𝙣’𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜—𝙞𝙩’𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚!

AI models can now generate perfect replicas of passports, bank statements and bills in seconds. But most automated verification systems can't tell the difference. The numbers are concerning: • Almost 80% of financial institutions still rely on document-based verification • Synthetic identity fraud causes between $20B and $40B loses annually • Most companies currently can’t detect AI-generated documents consistently Document verification is obsolete. Here's why that matters: 1// Compliance risk Banks and fintechs using traditional KYC are exposed to unprecedented fraud risk. AI-generated documents bypass most automated checks. 2// User privacy Current systems store complete copies of sensitive documents. One breach could expose everything. 3// Trust gap Users have no way to prove document authenticity without exposing all their personal data. With emerging AI, the ripple effects could be very dangerous. We could see: • Mortgage approvals using fake income proof • Insurance claims with fabricated evidence • Employment offers based on false credentials • Loan applications with synthetic credit history Fake identities, fake documents, fake invoices. All of this proves that we need a better system. And zero-knowledge proofs could flip the current model. With a zk-based proving system, we could: → Verify claims without exposing raw documents → Mathematically prove authenticity → Give users control over their data → Create permanent, tamper-proof verification trails Traditional document verification died the moment AI learned to replicate it. The real question isn't whether we need a new system. It's whether we'll build it before synthetic fraud becomes unstoppable. And who will build it first.

#Batch 15 is a wrap! Seven promising teams have just completed an intensive program, gaining a robust and practical toolbox to support their expansion into the U.S. market. While it might seem like “just another batch,” each cohort represents months of dedicated work - from curating relevant, high-impact content, to coordinating with top-tier mentors across Tel Aviv and the U.S., fine-tuning every detail of the schedule, and designing a program that meets #founders where they are - and challenges them to go further. We’re proud to support visionary founders with the potential to drive real impact in their sectors - and we’re excited to see what’s next for this talented group. We’re deeply grateful to the #mentors, advisors, and leaders who joined us for the ride - thank you for sharing your time and expertise. Your partnership and alignment with our vision make all the difference - here’s to many more!
