Case Study: Riskfuel optimizes manpower and accelerates AI model development with Lenses

How Riskfuel optimizes manpower to focus on business

Riskfuel, a fintech using AI and streaming data to make bank risk calculations faster and cheaper, faced the challenge of operating Apache Kafka with a small team while prioritizing model development over infrastructure management. To gain Kafka observability and simplify administration, Riskfuel partnered with Lenses for a single UI and API to monitor and manage its Kafka environment.

Lenses provided topology and monitoring views that cut Kafka learning time and sped up troubleshooting, enabling Riskfuel to pinpoint a broker-related outage immediately and avoid hours of investigation. The company reports months saved in Kafka education and measurable manpower savings that let engineers focus on building AI models; Riskfuel is now expanding its use of Lenses to build and run data flows with SQL.
