Scienaptic AI and SentiLink Strengthen Partnership, Advancing AI-Powered Fraud Detection Capabilities

A Game-Changer in Preventing Multimillion-Dollar Losses for Lenders

Scienaptic AI, the leading AI-powered credit underwriting platform provider, and SentiLink, the leading identity verification and fraud detection solutions provider, are excited to announce an enhanced product partnership. This product alliance comes in response to the escalating challenges of identity theft and the growing threat of synthetic identity fraud in the digital lending environment. The strengthened partnership is set to equip credit unions and lenders with advanced tools to combat fraud effectively.

Identity fraud remains a significant cause of losses for credit unions, and the risk presented by synthetic identities is a growing concern. Recent studies reveal a shocking 1.8 million consumer credit accounts potentially compromised by synthetic identity fraud within just a year. Alarmingly, over 30% of these accounts were at risk of major delinquency or charge-offs, resulting in average losses of $8,000 – $10,000 per incident.

In light of this alarming trend, the partnership between Scienaptic and SentiLink is set to revolutionize fraud detection. By equipping credit unions and lenders with cutting-edge tools, this alliance aims to intercept fraudulent applications at the point of origination, thereby preserving the integrity of the lending process and protecting the experiences of genuine members. Credit unions are also able to leverage SentiLink’s solutions to re-verify identities of existing members when, for example, personal information is changed on an established account.
