This week’s edition of Finovate Global takes a look at one of the innovative fintech companies headquartered in Estonia: Ender Turing. The firm, which specializes in voice conversation intelligence and automation, made its Finovate debut earlier this year at FinovateEurope in London.
Headquartered in Tallinn, Ender Turing was founded in 2020. The founding team consisted of two AI researchers with experience in automatic speech recognition and natural language processing (NLP), as well as a third member with experience in enterprise-level call center software. Together, the team formed Ender Turing and have since launched Ender Turing AI Speech Analytics. The new solution automatically analyzes and assesses the communication content between financial institutions and their customers. This helps FIs enhance the customer experience, as well as meet quality guidelines and compliance requirements in areas such as customer service, sales, and debt collection.
We corresponded with Ender Turing CEO Olena Iosifova via email. Below are her responses to our questions.
Read more about fintech in Estonia in this Finovate Global column from earlier this year.
What problem does Ender Turing solveand who does it solve it for?
Olena Iosifova: Eight hundred million voice conversations are recorded daily in Europe and many more worldwide. A tiny 1% of these conversations are checked for quality control, employee training, and business results improvement. Ender Turing is a conversations intelligence and automation platform to close 99% of the conversation gap for business growth.
Our daily business users are customer service, sales, and collection departments. But marketing and product teams also get value from making client’s research right on our platform.
How does Ender Turing solve this problem better than other companies?
Iosifova: Ender Turing created the fastest-to-value platform that performs in 24 languages. We use a proprietary speech-to-text engine to fine-tune models for every client to achieve the highest accuracy. Our machine learning pipelines are very efficient, and we can fine-tune speech recognition for free.
Also, the user interface does all the system setup for reaching business KPIs. There is no need to wait for the time slot at the IT department to help a business unit make it.
Who are Ender Turing’s primary customers?How do you reach them?
Iosifova: Our primary customers come from financial industry. These are banks, debt collection firms, and other financial services companies. But we also have clients in the public sector and in healthcare.
Direct outreach is our main channel of getting noticed by potential customers – as well as our partnership network. We cooperate with system integrators and call center software vendors and offer added value to their customer base.
Participation in conferences serves as a great supporting touch.

Can you tell us about a favorite implementation or deployment of your technology?
Iosifova: We have two great examples of our technology implementation. One is OTP Bank, and another is Creamfinance Group.
In OTP Bank it started with the call center customer service department. One month after we started, the debt collection department joined, seeing great results. OTP Bank saw hundreds of hours of saved time every month for quality management, employee training, and improved conversion rates – results we mutually enjoy.
With Creamfinance Group, the best indicator of great business results is that after implementation in their headquarters in Poland, we now serve also their offices in Spain, Mexico, and the Czech Republic.
What in your background gave you the confidence to respond to this challenge?
Iosifova: Three founders in Ender Turing have positive experience and skills in artificial Iitelligence R&D, business management, and a passion for building highly performing teams. We enjoy analyzing our potential customers’ strategies and market trends to foresee the challenges they might face in the next three to five years. With constant innovations inside our R&D, we build our product to deliver value for today and the future.
What is the fintech industry like in Estonia? How do traditional financial institutions treat Estonian fintechs?
Iosifova: Apart from the big name in fintech, Wise, coming from Estonia, other exciting fintechs are growing here. To name a few – Grunfin, Scrambleup, Tuum, Salv, Montonio.
They partner with traditional financial institutions actively. For example, LHV Bank is the best client of Tuum. And Salv is the AML solution that works exactly in a traditional financial services market.
You recently demoed your technology at FinovateEurope in London. What was that experience like?
Iosifova: This is truly an international event where we met companies from all over the world. This was a pleasant surprise. We will participate again.
What are your goals for Ender Turing?
Iosifova: Our goal is to become a number-one choice platform for banks and financial services companies regarding conversation intelligence and automation, providing the best quality of service, sales conversation rate, and recovery rate.
What can we expect from Ender Turing over the balance of 2023?
Iosifova: Our growth in 2023 gets us to expand to the U.S. and Latin America. But what’s more interesting is that we bring real-time agent assistance to fill the gap between the top-performing agents and the rest of the team and ensure real-time compliance monitoring in every conversation.
FinovateSpring 2023 is in the books! Congratulations to the winners of Best of Show, and thanks to the hundreds of fintech and financial services professionals whose passion and enthusiasm continue to make our conferences such unique and rewarding experiences.
Do you have a favorite moment from FinovateSpring 2023? Was it Dan Latimore of Celent and his creative deployment of generative AI during the Analyst All-Stars presentations? Maybe it was Peggy Mangot of JP Morgan who led a Power Panel full of diverse insights on where the smart money is investing in fintech. How about the first-ever company to begin its Finovate demo with a song performed live on stage?
Whatever moment of FinovateSpring was your favorite, there were plenty of good times and great networking opportunities to go around. Check out this review from Finovate Senior Research Analyst Julie Muhn who compiled her top seven takeaways from the event.
And stay tuned to the Finovate blog where we’ll soon share demo videos from the conference, as well as one-one-one video interviews, testimonials, our event e-magazine, and more!
Conversational AI platform company Kore.ai announced a strategic partnership with IT solutions provider Mphasis.
The partnership will enable Mphasis to help its enterprise clients transform customer experience management and employee engagement.
Kore.ai demoed its technology at FinovateFall 2022 in New York last September.
IT solutions provider Mphasis and enterprise conversational AI platform company Kore.aihave forged a new strategic partnership. The alliance will enable Mphasis to offer new customer experience management and employee engagement solutions to its enterprise clients.
“Conversational AI solutions are leading the way in which enterprise clients are interacting with their end customers,” Mphasis CEO and Managing Director Nitin Rakesh said. He referred to Kore.ai as an “undisputed leader in the space” and said that the company’s generative AI solutions will complement Mphasis’ product engineering capabilities. Rakesh also added that Kore.ai would benefit from cross-selling opportunities “particularly in the contact center transformation space.”
Kore.ai helps enterprises automate their business and voice and digital interactions. The company’s Experience Optimization (XO) platform enables companies to design, build, test, and deploy conversational user interfaces and virtual assistants without requiring technical expertise or support. The technology uses generative AI and large language models (LLMs) to create and deploy intelligent conversational experiences for the benefit of customers, contact center workers, and employees alike. Additionally, the platform supports cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments for more than 40 channels in 120+ languages. More than 200 Global 2000 companies leverage Kore.ai’s XO platform and solutions to automate their interactions and processes.
“We automate billions of interactions every year through out conversational AI platform and solutions and have already delivered an estimated $1 billion in cost savings to global enterprise customers,” Kore.ai CEO and founder Raj Koneru said. “Together we will accelerate innovation and drive growth,” Koneru said, “providing exceptional solutions and experiences to our customers.”
Kore.ai’s partnership with Mphasis comes just a few weeks after Kore.ai announced a collaboration with digital solutions company Ciklum. The firm will leverage Kore.ai’s technology to build advanced virtual assistants. These solutions will be deployed in use cases ranging from customer experience to enterprise automation. “This partnership will enable businesses to radically transform their customer and user experiences and provide more human-like interactions,” Ciklum VP and Global Head of Intelligent Automation Gourav Datta said.
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Orlando, Florida, Kore.ai has raised more than $73 million in funding. The company’s investors include NVIDIA, Vistara Capital Partners, PNC, and Sterling National Bank. This year, Kore.ai was named a leader in 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Conversational AI Platforms. Kore.ai made its Finovate debut in 2021 and returned the Finovate stage the follow year for FinovateFall 2022.
Agent IQ secured a strategic investment from the Bankers Helping Bankers Fund (BHB Fund).
The digital customer engagement innovator demoed its technology at FinovateFall 2022 in New York.
The BHB fund launched in 2022 to give community banks wider exposure to a range of innovative fintechs.
Terms were not disclosed. But the Bankers Helping Bankers Fund (BHB Fund) made a strategic investment in digital customer engagement solutions provider Agent IQ this week. The capital adds to the $18.5 million in equity funding Agent IQ has raised via previous seed and Series A rounds.
“This investment is representative of Agent IQ’s commitment to helping FI’s foster deep and meaningful customer relationships while also meeting the digital demands of today’s customers,” Agent IQ CEO and co-founder Slaven Bilac said in a statement.
Agent IQ offers an AI-enabled solution, Lynq, that improves communication between financial institutions and their customers. The platform enables customers to make basic queries, such as requesting a routing number, as well as more sophisticated requests, such as help in depositing a check. Lynq also allows customers to speak with a human agent at any point in time during the engagement. Via a “banker carousel” with brief bios and profile pictures, Lynq customers can choose and engage with a personal banker to quickly find the human assistance they need.
FIs using Agent IQ’s technology have reported a reduction in call center volume of 29%. Additionally, these customers also have noted that Lynq’s configurable, self-service technology is handling more than 80% of incoming conversations.
Left to right: Soren Bested (COO) and Matt Phipps (CMO) of Agent IQ at FinovateFall 2022.
“Our team looks forward to empowering more community banks with data-driven technology and the ability to allow relationship banking to thrive in the digital world,” Bilac added. “We are excited to be a part of the BHB Fund as the organization is helping more community banks overcome their shared challenges, operate more efficiently, and discover new sources of income.”
The BHB fund launched in 2022. Latitude38 Venture Partners manages the fund in partnership with IBAT Services, Inc. and banking market intelligence and advisory firm, FedFis. IBAT Services is a subsidiary of the Independent Bankers Association of Texas (IBAT). The goal of the fund is two-fold. First, the fund seeks to give community banks exposure to a range of fintech investments capable of boosting growth, improving efficiencies, and enhancing competitiveness. Second, the fund offers the potential for outsized venture capital returns uncorrelated to traditional bank operations.
Latitude38 Venture Partners Managing Partner Richard Leggett praised Agent IQ as an ideal fit for the fund’s investment thesis. In a statement, Leggett noted that it was important for community banks to leverage technology to drive digital engagement. Agent IQ, which most recently demoed its platform at FinovateFall last year, offers technology that does just that.
Agent IQ’s funding news comes in the wake of a major new hire. In April, Agent IQ appointed fintech veteran Ruthann Paulin Glyman as EVP, Head of Partnerships and Strategic Alliances. Glyman brings with her more than 15 years of financial services industry experience to the job. Previous to her move to Agent IQ, Glyman was Director of Sales at Array, another Finovate alum.
Agent IQ is headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company was founded in 2015.
Banking technology company Nymbus raised $70 million in Series D funding.
The round was led by Insight Partners. ConnectOne Bank and PeoplesBank also participated.
Nymbus introduced itself to Finovate audiences at FinDEVrNewYork in 2016. The company most recently demoed its technology at FinovateFall 2019.
Banking technology company NYMBUS has secured $70 million in new funding. The Series D round was led by Insight Partners, and featured participation from ConnectOne Bank and PeoplesBank. The Banc Fund Company and Mendon Venture Partners also participated.
The investment takes the company’s total capital raised to more than $199 million. Valuation information was not immediately available. Nymbus will use the additional capital to support expansion and further development of its core system and product portfolio.
“This latest round of financing positions the company to double down on our mission of bringing new thinking to financial institutions to help them thrive in an ever-evolving market,” Nymbus CEO and Chairman Jeffrey Kendall said. “These strategic investments are a testament to the confidence in Nymbus’ ability to transform the financial services industry by modernizing outdated legacy systems with proven technology and business models that result in growth for our current and future clients.”
Nymbus helps financial institutions successfully undergo digital transformation and offer new digital experiences to their customers. Solutions like Nymbus’ SmartLaunch enable financial institutions to launch a fully-operational digital bank in as few as 90 days. FIs can take advantage of these deployments without having to undergo a major transformation or calling in additional human resources. The company’s SmartCore, SmartDigital, and SmartPayments solutions provide financial institutions with modern core, payments, and digital banking solutions, respectively.
Among these institutions taking advantage of Nymbus’ technology is Arizona-based Vantage West Credit Union. The $2.6 billion financial institution partnered with Nymbus to launch a new niche financial brand in April. The previous month, Michigan State University Federal Credit Union worked with Nymbus to launch a pair of standalone digital brands – AlumniFi and Collegiate. AlumniFi provides financial wellness, debt management, and charitable donation tools to MSU alums. Collegiate brings digital banking services to MSU students, faculty, and staff.
“Nymbus is empowering credit unions to deliver growth models with the people, process, and technology needed to deliver digital financial services that complement their core business,” Nymbus CUSO President John Janclaes said.
Digital ID verification (IDV) innovator OCR Labs Global will begin the second half of 2023 with a new identity of its own. The company, which introduced itself to Finovate audiences at our developer’s conference, FinDEVrSiliconValley 2016, announced its rebrand as IDVerse this week.
In a statement, the firm noted that the new name and brand combine a set of key concepts – identity, universality, versatility, and diversity – that underscore the company’s priorities when it comes to developing digital ID verification technology. The rebrand also reflects the company’s growth, technological innovations in the field of identity verification, the evolving regulatory landscape, and mandates for greater financial inclusion.
“With OCR Labs we set out to develop an identity verification solution, from scratch,” company CEO Myers said, “The birth of IDVerse means we’re now ready to go to the next level to make user verification effortless with Zero Bias AI.”
IDVerse’s Zero Bias AI leverages generative AI to train deep neural network systems to guard against bias based on gender, age, and ethnicity. At the beginning of the year, the company announced that its technology had achieved non-bias certification from independent biometric testing laboratory BixieLab. The evaluation included male, female, and transgender subjects, aged 18 to 70 years old, from eight different ethnic categories. The test results revealed no demographic bias and a zero percent error rate for the company’s facial liveness detection solution. “The time has come to refocus efforts on achieving inclusivity to prepare for the future when more people than ever will use identity solutions for everything,” company General Manager International Russ Cohn said, “even ‘unlocking our car with our face’.”
Two months later, the company received certification from the U.K.’s Digital Identity & Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF). This gives the firm the right to serve employers, landlords, HR vetting firms, and other organizations as a compliant Identity Service Provider (IDSP). “Our Zero Bias AI technology eliminates barriers that lead to exclusion,” company Head of Legal, Risk, & Compliance Terry Brenner explained, “so that everyone has access to digital ID systems in society, such as recruitment and right to work, right to rent.”
In addition to the drive for financial inclusion and regulatory mandates, technological innovation is also playing a major role in the company’s transition to IDVerse. Founded as a research entity in 2014, the firm pioneered the deployment of optical character recognition and facial recognition to provide identity proofing and fraud detection on mobile and web platforms. The rise of technologies like synthetic media and generative AI have produced new challenges for fighting fraud. This has encouraged firms like IDVerse to embrace strategies such as identity orchestration that provide a coordinated fraud defense across the entire customer lifecycle.
Today, IDVerse verifies more than 16,000 identity documents in 220+ countries and territories. By matching people with their government-issued IDs, the company helps fight fraud and enables organizations to meet AML and KYC identity verification requirements.
Headquartered in London, Silicon Valley, and Sydney, IDVerse has raised $45 million in funding, according to Crunchbase. The firm’s investors include Equable Capital and OYAK.

Here is our look at fintech innovation around the world.
Payroll connectivity platform Argyle announced that it has onboarded more than 35 new customers year over year.
The New York-based company also unveiled the latest edition of its platform, Argyle 2.0.
Argyle made its Finovate debut last May at FinovateSpring 2022.
Payroll connectivity platform Argyle is crediting its new customers – more than 35 of them – for doubling the number of customer verifications the company has facilitated year over year. The announcements from the New York-based firm arrive as the company unveils the latest edition of its technology, Argyle 2.0.
“We’ve packaged five years of learning and innovation into our next-gen platform to continue automating critical workflows, reducing business risk, and providing exceptional experiences,” Argyle founder and CEO Shmulik Fishman said. “The growth of our company over the past year echoes the demand for real-time access to reliable, direct-source data.”
Argyle offers businesses direct-source data portability tools for mortgage, lending, banking, background, and tenant screening, among other use cases. With Argyle 2.0 the company seeks to change the way businesses are able to retrieve and use income and employment data – a key factor in expanding access to financial services. Lake Michigan Credit Union VP of Mortgage Strategy John Harpst praised the company’s technology for its ability to provide “a complete picture for the member without the concern that we missed important information that could affect the outcome of their loan approval.”
Argyle’s new platform also features updates to Argyle Link, Console, and API. Argyle Link is the platform’s front-end interface which enables consumers to connect their accounts and share income and employment data with service providers in real-time. Argyle Link also supports the manual upload of income documents. The company notes that it covers more than 210 million U.S. consumers and 95% of Fortune 1000 companies. This enables Argyle to achieve a verification “hit rate” that is 5x better than other solutions.
Founded in 2018, Argyle made its Finovate debut at FinovateSpring 2022. At the conference, company co-founder and COO Billy Marsden demoed the latest design update of Argyle’s platform. The redesign helped increase transparency, decrease drop-off rates, and improve the overall look at feel of the technology for end users.
Argyle has raised more than $77 million in funding, according to Crunchbase. The company’s investors include Bain Capital Ventures and Checkr.
Tyro Payments enables in-person, contactless payments for its users.
The new functionality is made possible courtesy of an integration between Apple’s Tap to Pay on iPhone and Tyro BYO App.
Tyro Payments made its Finovate debut at FinovateSpring 2017.
Australia-based Tyro Payments announced today that its customers in-country can now accept in-person, contactless payments. Courtesy of the new Tyro BYO App, the company’s customers will be able to seamlessly and securely take advantage of Apple’s Tap to Pay on iPhone contactless payment acceptance technology.
“Tap to Pay on iPhone is a fantastic simple and secure way for new or existing Tyro customers to accept payments using only their iPhone, anytime, anywhere – without the need for additional hardware,” Tyro CEO Jon Davey said. “We are excited to provide this new offering to our customers, providing greater flexibility when staff are working on-site or on the move.”
Tap to Pay on iPhone only requires an iPhone and the Tyro BYO app in order to accept contactless payments. These payment options include Apple Pay, contactless credit and debit cards, as well as other digital wallets. To use Tap to Pay on iPhone, users simply need to hold their Apple mobile device (iPhone or Apple Watch) near the merchant’s iPhone. Payments are completed securely using NFC technology. PIN entry, with multiple accessibility options, is also available. Tap to Pay on iPhone users also benefit from Apple’s commitment to privacy and security insofar as Apple does not store card numbers on the mobile device nor on its servers.
Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Sydney, Australia, Tyro Payments made its Finovate debut at FinovateSpring in 2017. At the event, the firm demoed its first lending product, Smart Growth Funding. This offering became the first lending solution released by an Australian challenger bank. In the years since then, Tyro has grown into a leading paytech with more than 600 employees; more than 66,000 customers; and more than $150 billion in transactions since inception. Going public in 2019, the company celebrated its 20th year in operation in February.
“From Australia’s largest EFTPOS provider outside the big four to streamlined business lending and banking products, I’m proud of how Tyro is powering the future of payments and business, both now and into the future,” Davey said.
