UrbanFox

UrbanFox is an AI-powered online payment fraud detection and prevention platform that uses generative AI and behavioral intelligence - rather than static rule-sets - to detect payment fraud, account takeover, and bot traffic across transactions, sessions, and accounts. The Techstars-backed company ships a tenant-scoped Customer API (OAuth 2.0 client credentials) for fraud case management, end-user account management, activity metrics, credential rotation, and clickstream collector integration.

UrbanFox publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Cases API, End User Accounts API, Metrics API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Fraud Detection, Payment Fraud, Account Takeover, Bot Detection, and Risk Management.

UrbanFox’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, pricing, signup flow, authentication, and 17 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/urbanfox: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
