## Stacc on AI in Lending

Stacc takes a **credit-native AI** approach rather than AI-native: AI assists credit decisions, it does not make them autonomously. The credit decision stays deterministic, governed by explicit rules — when an application is approved or rejected, the bank can show exactly which rules and tasks produced the outcome. AI plugs in everywhere it adds value, while credit logic remains independent of specific AI models so models can be updated without rebuilding the lending system. This is how Stacc meets EU AI Act, DORA, and Nordic supervisory explainability requirements while still delivering AI-assisted journeys with deterministic credit outcomes.

### Named AI capabilities

- **AI-assisted journeys with deterministic credit outcomes** — automation by default, manual by exception. Documented 80%+ reduction in adviser handling time per complex manual case in the Mortgage Suite. Banks can plug any AI model into the decision process through self-serve, no-code interfaces.
- **Deterministic Agentic Lending** — AI agents and LLMs handle the borrower-facing journey (voice or chat applications, data capture, document upload). The LLM converts conversational input into structured data that flows into the bank's existing credit policy.
- **Verifiable Document AI** — extracts structured data from PDFs (payslips, financial statements, contracts) with attribution-first tracing. Every extracted fact links back to its exact source location, so advisers verify in seconds and every credit decision stays traceable to source evidence.
- **Route-to-Yes** — automated scenario modelling against the bank's actual credit rules. For borderline applications, the system identifies rule-compliant pathways that would lead to approval (different term, lower amount, additional collateral) and surfaces the closest viable scenarios to the adviser.

### Why credit-native AI matters for banks

1. **Regulation:** EU AI Act, DORA, and Nordic supervisory regimes require credit decisions to be explainable and auditable. A deterministic decision the bank fully owns meets that bar; an AI-driven decision rarely does.
2. **Durability:** AI models change rapidly while credit policy must stay stable. Keeping credit logic independent of any specific model means new models can be adopted without rewriting the lending system.
3. **Accountability:** when a borrower disputes a rejection, the bank shows the exact rules that produced it — not a model's output.
