Overview

Karavel.ai unifies horizon-scanning, financial-promotion review and end-to-end compliance workflows in a single SaaS platform. Its flagship tool, AdCheck, enables teams to complete financial-promotion reviews up to three times faster while achieving a 91 % first-time approval rate. Automated daily alerts replace manual fortnightly regulatory reports, bringing up to 14× efficiency gains and cutting external legal-advisory costs by as much as 73 % in the first year. Current customers include ClearScore, Credit Karma and London-listed Shawbrook. Highlighted in the Portugal Fintech Report 2025 as an emerging fintech, the company was founded in 2025 by former Revolut, Deliveroo, CNN and ClearScore executives Pedro Filipe Sousa and Nav Garcha. Karavel.ai targets compliance, legal and marketing teams that struggle with manual, fragmented processes, offering clearer oversight and automation. While revenue figures were not disclosed, the company positions itself for rapid expansion across regulated industries using its newly raised capital.
