Ally Madrone

VP of Product at Deep Media · Knoxville, Tennessee · he/him

I build AI systems that find digital harms before the victims have to. At Deep Media, a content security infrastructure company, I lead product for a platform that helps financial institutions, technology platforms, and government teams detect synthetic media, investigate fraud networks, and keep their communities safe. Deep Media's work is trusted by the U.S. Department of Defense and major technology platforms.

Before this I spent a decade in identity and fraud, and before that I ran a horticultural research firm I founded and grew to a million dollars in annual revenue. The through line is the same question in every domain: how do we act with integrity toward the systems we're entangled with, whether they're ecological, digital, human, or artificial.

Right now I'm focused on agentic AI for fraud investigation and trust and safety. Next up, I'm speaking at the IAFCI International Training Conference in Nashville on August 25, 2026.
