Presenter Profile:
How they describe themselves: A lending performance layer that reduces friction across communication channels to increase application conversion, improves operational efficiency, and generates higher borrower LTV – deepening relationships and driving PFI.
How they describe their product/innovation: Donevia is a lending performance layer that surfaces conversion opportunities today’s origination systems miss. Our AI monitors borrower interactions across every channel – inquiries, calls, messages, applications – and surfaces the moment a lending team should act: nudge a stalled application, cross-sell a qualified borrower, or catch a lead before it goes cold. Donevia layers on top of existing core, LOS, and CRM systems with no rip-and-replace, turning passive data into active revenue.
Product distribution strategy: Direct to Business (B2B)
Credit Union/Community Bank Fit: Credit unions and community banks.
