The partnership combines deep payments expertise with secure, human-in-the-loop AI deployed directly inside customer environments—delivering proof of value in as little as four to six weeks.
London, UK — 25 September 2026 —Flotta Consulting, a global payments advisory firm, and Gaigentic.ai, an independent verification and governance platform for financial AI, today announced a strategic partnership to help finance and payments teams deploy agentic AI in payment operations with governance, verification, and human oversight built in from the start.
The partnership brings together Flotta’s deep payment-operator expertise with Gaigentic.ai’s secure enterprise AI platform. Together, the companies will help CFOs, treasurers, and payments leaders identify high-value use cases, design controlled AI-enabled workflows, and prove measurable value fast—without replacing core systems or launching major transformation programmes.
Targeting High-Value Payment Use Cases
Initial use cases include payment cost and scheme-fee analysis, acquiring optimisation, fraud investigations, reconciliation, chargebacks, and compliance. Flotta will define the commercial priorities and operating model, while Gaigentic.ai will provide the agents and control layer to accelerate analysis, automate knowledge-intensive tasks, and support operational decision-making.
Security and Control by Design
The solution runs inside the customer’s existing environment, keeping sensitive data under organisational control. Outputs are transparent, verifiable, and auditable, with people retaining oversight of decisions and actions. This approach allows teams to move from discovery to proof of value in as little as four to six weeks.
The solution is designed to improve efficiency, strengthen control, and help teams scale without adding equivalent headcount.
Executive Perspectives
“Businesses do not need another AI platform; they need a practical way to solve valuable problems without introducing new risk,” said Andrew Doukanaris, Founder and CEO of Flotta Consulting. “We start with the commercial case, then prove the workflow quickly inside the customer’s own environment. That gives leaders evidence they can act on before they scale.”
“Security, governance, and speed to value should not be trade-offs,” said Auke D Veenstra, Co-Founder of Gaigentic.ai. “Enterprise AI succeeds when organisations can see how decisions are made, verify outputs, and keep people in control. By deploying inside the customer’s environment, finance teams can operationalise AI while retaining control of their data.”
Who This Serves
The partnership targets merchants, corporates, financial institutions, and fintechs seeking a controlled route to AI adoption in regulated or operationally critical payment environments.
