Acoru is a Madrid-based startup founded in 2023 by Pablo de la Riva Ferrezuelo and David Morán. The company has developed a cybersecurity platform for the banking sector that combines AI and intent detection to anticipate financial fraud, phishing attacks, and money mule networks. Unlike traditional fraud detection approaches — which intervene after the transaction — Acoru intercepts the fraudulent signal before damage occurs. In 2025 it raised €10M in a Series A round led by 33N Ventures.
