System Limitations

Manual reviews create 24-48 hour delays
Limited data sources reduce accuracy to 65%
No alternative credit history consideration

Slow Manual Processes

Traditional credit assessments took 48-72 hours, creating bottlenecks that frustrated customers and limited the company's ability to scale operations effectively.

Inaccurate Risk Assessment

Legacy scoring models achieved only 65% accuracy, leading to higher default rates and missed opportunities with creditworthy applicants.

Limited Market Coverage

Only 40% of the target demographic could be served due to insufficient credit history and reliance on traditional banking data sources.

"We were losing potential customers every day due to our slow, inaccurate credit assessment process. We needed a solution that could serve our growing market while maintaining risk standards."
