Cognitive analytics company Personetics has traditionally served large banks, including six of the top 12 banks in North America and Europe. Today, however, the company launched a new offering that makes its solutions more accessible for smaller digital-only and challenger banks.

The new offering provides a highly customizable, pre-packaged application, lowering barriers for smaller banks to implement AI-powered banking services. Founded in 2010, Personetics leverages predictive analytics to help banks anticipate their clients’ individual needs.

“Personalized and proactive guidance is quickly becoming a must-have requirement for banking, especially for new banks that are built on the promise of a new banking experience,” said David Sosna, Personetics co-founder and CEO. “Our mission is to deliver market-proven engagement and personalization technology that is quick and easy to deploy so digital banks can focus their resources on their go-to-market strategy.”

The implementation, which takes under three months, is designed to work with banks with limited resources. To meet these requirements, the new software package offers:

• Pre-built banking content: The offering includes hundreds of pre-built insights, financial tips, and personalized advice that the bank can easily modify and control
• API-first approach: Personetics uses open APIs to integrate AI functionality into a bank’s digital banking experience and allows banks to create their own brand identity and customer engagement strategy.
• Editing tools: These tools allow the bank to retain control over the content and develop new capabilities to support its own business goals.
• Fast time-to-market: Personetics delivers a production-level solution in just three months.

Among the first challenger banks to leverage Personetics’ new software package is U.K.-based Tandem Bank, which announced its participation in February. “The Personetics Cognitive Banking Brain provides great AI capabilities with prebuilt insights which enable us to accelerate time-to-market and place personalised highlights in the hands of our customers sooner rather than later,” said Ricky Knox, chief executive at Tandem Bank.

At FinovateFall 2016, Personetics demonstrated its Personetics Anywhere chatbot solution. The company was founded in 2011 and has received $18 million in total funding. Personetics recently onboarded Romania’s Banca Transilvania to offer AI-powered, forward-looking financial guidance to the bank’s clients. The company offers more than 4.3 billion personalized interactions to more than 45 million end customers across the globe.
