  • MIL-OSI: Transforming Construction Data: OnStation Integrates with TransTech for Seamless Density Gauge Readings

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CLEVELAND, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OnStation, the leading provider of live digital stationing solutions for the heavy highway industry, announced today at World of Asphalt 2025 a new integration with TransTech Systems, Inc. The integration empowers shared customers to seamlessly transmit non-nuclear density test gauge readings to their OnStation Portal using TransTech Systems’ innovative product, TransTech Connect. This advancement not only eliminates the reliance on manual documentation but also significantly reduces data entry errors, thereby establishing a reliable project record that optimizes revenue.

    Contractors, Departments of Transportation, and inspection firms who use TransTech Systems’ PQI380 Plus gauge with a TransTech Connect subscription can use their device to seamlessly transmit a density reading directly to their project in OnStation. The density reading data is meticulously timestamped, geotagged, and contextualized, then recorded as a “flag” within the OnStation App, complete with its station and offset location automatically included. This enables project managers to access live data via their OnStation Portal, allowing them to make real-time adjustments as paving operations advance.

    The integration is facilitated by a simple API key, and requires an OnStation license and integration subscription, a TransTech Connect subscription, and a compatible non-nuclear gauge unit. The one-time setup allows users to send selected density reading data across multiple projects, from multiple gauge devices, to be viewed by any OnStation data portal user with appropriate permissions.

    “This is a turning point for anyone involved in the process of taking dozens of density readings across miles of paving. The current process today is manual, cumbersome, and error prone,” says John Lamond, Sales Manager at TransTech Systems. “Density techs don’t always have enough time to capture the level of detail they need on every reading. The OnStation integration makes it easy for them to ditch the clipboard and go faster—with better data integrity,” continued Lamond.

    The number of in-place density tests taken with the PQI non-nuclear asphalt density gauge will vary depending on the tonnage laid, the specific project guidelines, and the paving contractors standard Quality Control procedures. Currently, each density test is manually recorded, the location found and noted and then the test data is uploaded at the end of the day onto some form of reporting database by each technician to be analyzed later. On some large paving projects this can be 10’s if not 100’s of density data points. By streamlining the data entry process, the OnStation integration is projected to cut technical test time by up to two-thirds which will bring significant cost savings and critical time efficiencies to this important testing process.

    About OnStation

    OnStation is a collaborative digital stationing platform that offers location-based project records from bid to close. Specifically designed for the heavy highway industry, OnStation’s mobile app centralizes communication, boosts productivity, enhances worker safety, and improves project quality. Users benefit from live jobsite stationing, milepost, and LRS capabilities. They can overlay design layers on the project map and communicate via a custom chat platform that organizes and records project events at their locations. OnStation is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and is supported on all desktop systems.

    About TransTech Systems, Inc.

    TransTech Systems is the original developer of non-nuclear electromagnetic impedance technology to determine the in-place density measurement of asphalt by way of the PQI 380 asphalt density gauge.

    With over 30 years’ experience of continual development of this technology, the current TransTech Systems model offers fast, reliable, repeatable and accurate measurement of asphalt density in less than 3 seconds for a single test. Using technology that does not require any special safety and health precautions or licensing for the use, storage or transportation of the measurement device, it offers a very cost effect and safe solution to the on-site density measurement of hot mixed or warm mixed asphalt as it is being laid.

    TransTech Systems has cemented its place in the road construction industry over the years by developing the innovative use of electromagnetic impedance technology and continuously working to support the asphalt paving industry.

By incorporating interactive liveness verification, we make biometric authentication far more resilient against injection attacks and fraudulent access attempts.”

    Dr. Norman Poh, Chief Science Officer of Trust Stamp, highlights the accessibility of the innovation, “This solution offers a highly adaptable challenge-response mechanism that can be implemented on any smartphone, regardless of make or budget. By eliminating the need for specialized hardware, we ensure that robust biometric security is available to everyone.”

    Trust Stamp continues to lead the industry in AI-powered biometric authentication, developing innovative solutions that prioritize security, privacy, and accessibility. With the Shape Overlay for Proof of Liveness, Trust Stamp reaffirms its commitment to protecting digital identities in an increasingly complex cybersecurity landscape.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    JOHNSTON, Iowa, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Growers Edge, a financial technology firm that provides modern financial products and data-driven tools for agricultural retailers, manufacturers, and lenders, today announced Brian Weis as Managing Director, Mortgage.

    A former senior vice president at Fairway Independent Mortgage and vice president at Guaranteed Rate, Weis has a track record of scaling high-performing sales teams, building systems that turn loan officers into category leaders, and forging profitable industry relationships that benefit his team and clients.

    “From growing up on a dairy farm, I learned that agriculture is about more than just crops and livestock: it’s about having the right support when you need it,” said Weis. “At Growers Edge, we’ll provide that support by helping growers unlock capital they can use to improve and expand their businesses.”

    Since joining Growers Edge in January, Weis has focused on three key initiatives:

    • Strategic partnerships: Through expanded partnerships with funding sources like Farm Credit System and other ag-focused banks, Growers Edge is building a framework for flexible wholesale lending.
    • New product development: By empowering some of the world’s biggest retail originators to invent and streamline their own digital mortgage processes, Growers Edge is ensuring ag lenders and growers get the same access and convenience.
    • Loan officer empowerment: By helping loan officers specialize in complex FSA and RD loans, Growers Edge is delivering a tech-enabled competitive edge with technology that enhances loan officer relationships with growers.

    “We brought Brian on board to develop deep relationships with two key groups: ag-focused banks and their grower customers,” said Matt Hansen, CEO of Growers Edge. “As a next step, we’ll link them with a technical engine that transfers farmland data into accurate land valuations and deliver the first end-to-end lending experience for the agricultural industry.”

    Last year, Growers Edge acquired AQUAOSO Technologies, which offers its services under the Agcor brand and provides mapping, data, and analytics software for agricultural lenders. After expanding RangeAg, its farmland valuation tool, to cover more than 144 million acres of land across nine states, Growers Edge also announced it protected over 1 million acres of American farmland from downside risk.

    About Growers Edge

    Growers Edge provides modern financial products and data-driven tools that help forward-thinking agriculture retailers, manufacturers, and lenders reduce their growers’ risks and costs when adopting newer innovative solutions and practices.

  • MIL-OSI: After $250M Metaco exit, serial founders unveil Supervised to redefine the role of managers in the era of AI

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Zurich, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Modern organizations face a crippling design flaw: each new management layer adds weeks to decision cycles and millions in costs, while trapping critical knowledge in bureaucratic silos.The root cause is not technology or strategy, but a biological limitation. With a natural ‘span of control ceiling’ of typically 10 direct reports, growing organizations are forced to add layers that create friction, dilute strategic intent, and slow decision velocity.

    Today, Supervised is emerging from stealth to tackle this problem by reengineering how management functions. Founded by Adrien Treccani and Seamus Donoghue, the serial entrepreneurs behind the $250M Metaco acquisition, Supervised has already been quietly deployed by Fortune 500 companies across financial services, manufacturing, and technology.

    Supervised founders: Seamus Donoghue and Adrien Treccani,

    Supervised’s breakthrough platform uses advanced voice AI to automatically capture, structure, and route critical operational insights – eliminating the need for managers to act as information bottlenecks. Traditionally, managers spend 30% of their time in status meetings, manually gathering and relaying updates. With Supervised, that intelligence is surfaced in real time, freeing leaders to focus on high-value strategic decisions. Early adopters have achieved the previously impossible: expanding manager span of control from 10 to 30 direct reports while reducing decision cycles from weeks to days.

    Fresh from their $250M exit to Ripple, Treccani and Donoghue built Supervised from first hand experience. “After scaling Metaco from 10 people to post-acquisition integration with 1,000 employees, we discovered management structures become the biggest obstacle to success for growing organizations,” said Adrien Treccani, CEO of Supervised. “When a manager hits their biological limit of 7-10 direct reports, companies add layers that slow down everything. Our platform breaks this fundamental constraint, enabling radically flatter organizations that maintain startup speed at enterprise scale.”

    Rapid adoption by major enterprises – including leading companies across financial services, manufacturing, and technology sectors – signals strong market validation for the platform. Early customers have reported dramatic improvements in decision velocity, reduced overhead costs, and better operational clarity. Companies can now scale horizontally rather than vertically, recapturing the agility of a startup while maintaining enterprise-level operational discipline.

    Supervised’s impact extends beyond just efficiency gains. Its platform acts as a real-time intelligence layer, helping enterprises maintain business continuity during organizational changes, preserve critical institutional knowledge, and reduce the risk of key-person dependency. For regulated industries, Supervised also enhances governance and compliance by ensuring operational knowledge is properly documented and surfaced at the right moment.

    “We’re building the foundation for next-generation enterprise operations,” said Seamus Donoghue, CCO of Supervised. “By creating a unified intelligence layer that connects human insight with automation capabilities, we’re enabling organizations to scale their operations while maintaining proper governance and control. The strong early adoption we’re seeing validates our vision of transforming how enterprises capture and leverage their operational intelligence.”

    Supervised’s timing couldn’t be more critical. With forty million baby boomers retiring in the next decade and the rise of remote work disrupting real-time knowledge sharing, enterprises face an unprecedented risk of losing institutional intelligence. It’s estimated that Fortune 500 companies lose $31.5B* annually due to critical knowledge exiting their organizations. Meanwhile, companies are increasingly reliant on independent contractors and freelancers, creating additional knowledge retention challenges as contracts end and expertise walks out the door.

    The market opportunity here is substantial. Global AI Knowledge Management Market is projected to reach $60B by 2033**, growing at 25% annually. Supervised’s platform represents the convergence of AI, organizational science, and the growing recognition that legacy management structures are the biggest barrier to enterprise agility.

    “Every organization above 100 people faces this constraint – you either transform how management functions or watch nimbler competitors run circles around you,” added Adrien Treccani. “With our experienced team that has successfully built and scaled enterprise software, we’re giving organizations the power to finally break free from the management structures that are holding them back.”

    Looking ahead, with strong early customer traction and a proven founding team, Supervised is positioned to fundamentally redefine the management model. By transforming management from an evolutionary dead end into a strategic advantage, Supervised is helping enterprises break free from the bureaucratic structures that have constrained their ability to move fast, make better decisions, and operate at their full potential.

  • MIL-OSI: Historic Shift: Passkeys Set to Become Leading Authentication Method by 2027, New Survey Reveals

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    • 49% of firms breached last year, 87% due to identity vulnerabilities, leading to an average loss of $2.5M per incident
    • 40% experienced a GenAI related security incident in the last year, 95% encountered a deepfake attack
    • Phishing-resistant authentication to surpass passwords and standard MFA within two years. Passkeys set to overtake legacy methods
    • IDV tools are the most widely deployed IAM tool (63%) and a top choice for post-breach implementation (68%)

    NEW YORK, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HYPR, the Identity Assurance Company, today released the fifth edition of its State of Passwordless Identity Assurance Report, revealing an increasing misalignment between real-world security risks and outdated authentication methods. The report highlights the growing risks associated with outdated authentication methods and the rise of new generative AI-related attacks. However, it also signals a potential turning point in the fight against identity-based attacks, with phishing-resistant authentication methods like FIDO passkeys poised to become the dominant solution within the next two years – a first in the report’s five-year history.

    Leveraging insights from 750 IT security decision-makers across various industries and regions, the report, commissioned by HYPR, and conducted by S&P Global Market Intelligence 451 Research, revealed:

    Organizations Under Siege from Exploited Weaknesses: Nearly half (49%) of organizations suffered a breach in 2024, with 87% attributed to identity vulnerabilities. These were primarily driven by credential misuse (47%), privilege access abuse (41%), social engineering (36%), and MFA bypass (35%).

    Breaches are Taking a Toll Beyond the Bottom Line: These attacks caused substantial financial losses (an average of $2.5 million per incident) and legal ramifications (20%), forcing many organizations to reduce headcount, demote executives (34%) and downsize their frontline workforce (38%) [1].

    Deepfakes Emerge as a Modern Identity Threat: In 2024, IT decision-makers named GenAI a major concern (60%), with deepfake identity fraud taking the top spot. Today, nearly 40% of organizations have suffered a GenAI-related security incident in the past year, and a staggering 95% were hit by some form of deepfake attack – including altered static imagery (50%) and manipulated live (44%) and recorded (41%) audio/video.

    A New Era of Secure Authentication is Here: For the first time in the report’s history, passwordless and FIDO-based authentication methods are gaining significant traction, with 46% of respondents now utilizing these secure solutions. This adoption of phishing-resistant authentication marks a paradigm shift in cybersecurity, with FIDO passkeys and hardware keys poised to become the gold standard in authentication by 2027. This trend is further validated by the FIDO Alliance’s recent survey results, which revealed that 87% of organizations have successfully deployed or are deploying passkeys.

    “We are in the midst of The Identity Renaissance, a period of profound transformation,” says Bojan Simic, CEO of HYPR. “Our report serves as a clarion call, exposing the vulnerabilities of outdated authentication methods and the urgent need for change. But amidst this challenge, there’s a powerful wave of innovation. Phishing-resistant authentication, led by FIDO passkeys, is poised to redefine how we secure digital identities, not just by replacing passwords, but by fundamentally shifting our approach to managing and verifying identities.”

    The Reactive Approach to Identity Security is Insufficient: It is evident that organizations are acting post breach – whether it’s increasing their investment in cybersecurity tools (61%), changing their authentication methods (50%) or implementing new identity management tools (68%). Yet, despite a shift in mindset and action, organizations are still embracing outdated practices such as standard MFA (52%) and passwords (40%). While in terms of general identity verification (IDV), organizations continue to use “traditional” methods such as in-person office visits and document-based authentication during hiring processes (72%).

    “This report highlights a key moment in identity security,” says Garrett Bekker, Principal Research Analyst at S&P Global Market Intelligence 451 Research. “While the surge in GenAI-fueled attacks and the persistence of traditional vulnerabilities underscore the need for change, the anticipated dominance of phishing-resistant authentication by 2027 offers a clear, strategic path forward. Organizations must now prioritize the deployment of phishing-resistant authentication such as FIDO passkeys and other modern identity verification tools, not as a future aspiration, but as a core component of their immediate risk mitigation strategy. Failure to do so will leave them exposed to escalating threats and undermine their ability to compete in an increasingly digital-first economy.”

  • MIL-OSI: VelocityEHS Revolutionizes Contractor Safety with AI-Driven Verification and Compliance Automation

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CHICAGO, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — VelocityEHS, the global leader in EHS & ESG software solutions, is excited to unveil an advanced AI-powered feature designed to streamline contractor safety management. This new capability automates contractor verification processes, reduces compliance risks, and significantly improves operational efficiency for organizations that manage contractors onsite.

    As part of its Contractor Safety Solution, Velocity deploys AI to generate guided workflows, flag risks, and make intelligent recommendations, making it easier for non- or less-experienced EHS managers to verify contractor credentials like Certificates of Insurance and OSHA Logs to facilitate compliance.

    Contractor workers face significantly higher risks on the job, with injury and illness rates 36% to 72% higher than those of full-time employees. Additionally, 37% of all temporary workers are employed in high-risk industrial sectors, underscoring the critical need for more effective safety and compliance solutions.

    “Our mission is to help create safer workplaces,” said Matt Airhart, CEO of VelocityEHS. “We are dedicated to developing AI-driven innovation that enables our customers to reach better outcomes faster. Even before this new feature, our Contractor Safety & Permit to Work solution helped organizations achieve 70%-time savings compared to traditional third-party management processes. Now their operational efficiency will reach new heights.”

    As regulatory demands and safety concerns continue to escalate, organizations need reliable, scalable, and intelligent solutions to ensure contractor compliance—particularly in safety-critical industries such as manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food & beverage, where staying on top of complex requirements is a daily challenge.

    Key Benefits of the AI-Powered Contractor Safety Feature

    • Faster, More Accurate Compliance Assessments: AI-driven automation accelerates document reviews, eliminating manual errors and ensuring precise contractor verification.
    • Reduced Compliance Risks: Quicker and easier access to crucial data to make informed decisions, ensuring contractors meet safety standards.
    • Lower Administrative Burden: Saves time by streamlining manual contractor verification processes, giving workers time to focus on higher-value safety initiatives rather than repetitive compliance tasks.

    “Many businesses face challenges with manual compliance workflows, resulting in costly delays in contractor verification and increased exposure to risks,” said Dr Julia Penfield, VP of Research & Machine Learning.

    “Over time, this leads to reactive risk management, human error, productivity losses and potential fines for non-compliance. Our new AI-powered Contractor Safety Solution is changing the game, transforming the process with an intuitive, automated solution that simplifies compliance and drives better overall safety outcomes,” she added.

  • MIL-OSI: February 2025: New Business Volumes Rebound

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    • FORECAST: Our forecast framework, which uses past values of CFI and durable goods orders to predict future changes in topline durable goods orders, expects a 0.47% contraction in new orders in February.
    • Total new business volume (NBV) rose by $9.7 billion seasonally adjusted among surveyed ELFA member companies, an increase of 3.7% from the prior month.
    • NBV year-to-date contracted by 3.7% relative to the same period in 2024.
    • The year-over-year change declined by 7.4% on a non-seasonally adjusted basis.
    • Charge-offs (losses) rose to 0.55%, near the two-year high seen last November.

    WASHINGTON, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — “The latest CFI release showed a return to normalcy in February. Demand for equipment returned to healthy levels after whipsawing the last few months due to a historic swing in financing activity at banks,” said Leigh Lytle, President and CEO at ELFA. “Financial conditions weakened a little as losses rose, but accounts past 30 days remained low, and new applications remained strong. 2025 is shaping up to be bumpy, but so far, the data indicates that demand for investment equipment has weathered the storm. We’re closely watching financial conditions for signs of erosion, but we expect the industry to have a solid year as long as the economy avoids a recession.”

    New business volumes rebounded. Volumes increased on a seasonally adjusted basis, posting a similar level of new business activity as the previous two February reports. Activity grew at banks and captives, with new business volumes expanding month-over-month by 0.9% and 15.0%, respectively. Financing at independents dropped by 6.4% after growing by 8.6% in the previous month. Despite the cooling, financing activity at independents has gained ground over the last five years. From 2017 to 2019, independents comprised roughly 16% of all new business activity. That number jumped to 20% of all activity from January 2024 through February 2025. The share of activity at captives also increased by around 2.25 percentage points, while bank activity fell by almost 7.5 percentage points.

    The pace of job losses slowed. After picking up speed for three months, the pace of job losses slowed in February. The sector was still down 2.4% over the last 12 months, mainly driven by a 6.4% contraction in employment at captives. Banks also experienced a 1.6% loss in headcount over the last year, while independents saw employment rise by 1.0%.

    Credit approvals continue to hover around 75%. The average credit approval rate dropped to 75.4%, a decline of roughly half a percentage point. However, the rate remains well above the levels seen at the end of 2024.

    Financial conditions somewhat weakened. Aging receivables over 30 days dropped back down to 2.0%, a decline of 0.2 percentage points. However, charge-offs (losses) rose to 0.55%, the second-highest level in the last two years. The increase in losses was driven by a rise in charge-offs at independents and banks. While the average loss rate rose, the loss rate for small ticket activity dropped after a notable jump in the prior month.

    “KeyBank remains optimistic as credit quality continues well within historical norms, capital is abundant and the desire for earning assets is strong,” said Peter Bullen, Executive Vice President & Group Head, Key Equipment Finance. “We are also encouraged to see a significant rebound from Key Equipment Finance clients in equipment financing demand compared to last year at this time. At the same time, we remain vigilant of the potential impact of new tariffs and general economic uncertainty on capital spending.”

    Industry Confidence
    The Monthly Confidence Index from ELFA’s affiliate, the Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation, dropped to 58.1 in March, as respondents grew slightly more pessimistic about conditions over the next four months.

    About ELFA’s CFI
    The CapEx Finance Index (CFI) is the only near-real-time index that reflects capex, or the volume of commercial equipment financed in the U.S. It is released monthly from Washington, D.C., one day before the U.S. Department of Commerce’s durable goods report. This financial indicator complements reports like the Institute for Supply Management Index, providing a comprehensive view of productive assets in the U.S. economy—equipment produced, acquired and financed. The CFI consists of two years of business activity data from a survey of industry leaders. For more details, including methodology and participants, visit www.elfaonline.org/CFI.

  • MIL-OSI: Point Predictive Releases 2025 Auto Lending Fraud Trends Report Revealing $9.2 Billion Industry Risk

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN DIEGO, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Point Predictive, the leader in artificial intelligence solutions for consumer lending, today released its comprehensive 2025 Auto Lending Fraud Trends Report. Drawing from an unprecedented dataset of over 250 million historical applications and billions in reported fraud and defaults, the report reveals that auto lenders face an estimated $9.2 billion in fraud loss exposure for 2025 – the highest ever measured.

    The comprehensive report analyzing fraud patterns on $4 trillion of submitted loan applications reveals that first-party fraud—where borrowers or dealerships misrepresent information to lenders—accounts for 69% of the $9.2 billion fraud risk exposure that the auto lending industry faced in 2024.

    “While dramatic cases of organized crime ring stealing identities make headlines, our data reveals that the true story behind most auto lending fraud is an array of misrepresentations,” said Frank McKenna, Chief Innovation Officer of Point Predictive. “Borrowers using their own names who inflate their income, misrepresent their employment, utilize credit washing techniques, or create new credit profiles with Credit Profile Numbers (CPNs) account for the overwhelming majority of fraud risk, yet these patterns often go undetected.”

    Some of the revealing statistics include the following:

    • First-party fraud and misrepresentations dominate the landscape, with income and employment misrepresentation accounting for 43% of total fraud risk ($3.9 billion).
    • Rising Default Risk: Point Predictive’s Early Payment Default Risk Index has increased 25% in the last 24 months.
    • Bust-out fraud has grown by over 26% in the last 24 months as the economy softens and more people resort to monetizing cars.
    • Systematic Dealer Risk, such as repeatedly inflating car values and using fake employment for borrowers, increases lenders’ default risk for those dealers by as much as 500%.

    The report also explores emerging threats, including the explosive growth of AI-powered fraud tools and their potential impact on lenders in 2025 and beyond. An analysis of criminal Telegram channels revealed a 644% increase in conversations about AI and deepfakes used for fraud between 2023 and 2024, featuring sophisticated schemes such as synthetic identity generators, deepfake videos aimed at bypassing identity verification, and AI-generated counterfeit identification documents.

    “This year’s report represents our largest analysis of auto lending loan data to date,” said Tim Grace, CEO of Point Predictive. “The extensive scale of our consortium and proprietary risk data provides us unparalleled visibility into fraud patterns that lenders’ own data simply cannot reveal. This data enables us to provide solutions that assist lenders in funding loans that do not contain fraud and misrepresentation while avoiding the losses associated with the array of hidden schemes that can lead to defaulted loans.”

    Point Predictive actively assists lenders and dealers in combating these evolving fraud threats with its comprehensive suite of solutions. The company’s AutoPass™ product uncovers hidden default patterns using sophisticated fraud and early payment default scores complemented with more than 120 risk alerts. It allows lenders to securely automate up to 80% of lending decisions while preventing 40-60% of early payment defaults.

    For dealerships, BorrowerCheck™ protects against both first and third-party fraud, helping prevent costly buybacks from lenders and providing faster and easier responses from lenders. This allows dealers to sell more cars faster and safely.

    Additionally, IEValidate™ is helping lenders and dealers safely validate income and employment to avoid fake employers, forged paystubs, and document fraud. Compared to other solutions, IEValidate is much more affordable and provides higher response rates and better accuracy.

    The 2025 Auto Lending Fraud Trends Report is available now via the link https://landing.pointpredictive.com/auto-lending-fraud-report-2025

    About Point Predictive

    Point Predictive powers a new level of lending confidence and speed through the unique combination of artificial and natural intelligence using decades of risk management expertise. The company’s data and technology solutions quickly and accurately identify truthful and untruthful disclosures on loan applications. As a result, lenders can fund most loans without requiring onerous documentation such as paystubs, utility bills, or bank statements, improving funding rates by up to 50% while reducing overall early payment default losses by more than 30%. Subsequently, borrowers get loans faster, and lenders realize a more profitable bottom line.
