Finovifi, a provider of AI-driven fraud prevention, compliance technology and core processing solutions for community financial institutions, today announced the acquisition of Turner Software Technologies, Inc., the developer of the Teller21 teller automation platform. The acquisition brings more than 50 community bank clients into the Finovifi ecosystem and advances the company’s strategy to embed real-time fraud detection directly into teller operations.
Turner Software founder and president Jerry Turner will join Finovifi as Senior Vice President of Engineering, partnering with Finovifi CTO Terry Ray to lead product development and platform innovation.
“Joining Finovifi is the next chapter in a journey that started with one goal: helping community banks operate with speed and confidence at the teller line,” said Turner. “Integrating Teller21 with Finovifi’s fraud and compliance technologies creates something truly powerful. FrontLine Sentry will give banks real-time protection at the exact moment it matters most.”

Strengthening a Long-Standing Teller & Core Integration
Teller21 has been tightly integrated with the MBS by Finovifi core platform for many years, supporting streamlined teller workflows and transaction processing for community banks. Following the acquisition, Finovifi will further enhance that integration by embedding its flagship check fraud detection engine, FraudSentry, directly into the teller workflow.
This evolution delivers fraud intelligence at the point of transaction — combining teller automation, core connectivity, and real-time risk analysis within a unified operational environment.
Finovifi President Russell Taylor emphasized the strategic importance of this advancement:
“Turner Software has built a highly respected community banking teller platform. By uniting Teller21 with our real-time fraud intelligence, we’re giving banks a defense system that operates where fraud happens — right at the front line, in real time.”
Introducing FrontLine Sentry
FrontLine Sentry is Finovifi’s real-time teller fraud prevention platform designed specifically for community banks.
Unlike traditional teller systems that rely primarily on post-transaction monitoring, FrontLine Sentry delivers fraud intelligence before a transaction is completed — enabling institutions to stop fraudulent checks at the window rather than reconcile losses afterward.
