Since 2018, Tekambi has simplified the lending industry’s lead management process by bridging the gap between technology and design with an underwriting tool that streamlines and solves pain points that lenders see every day. Tekambi helps them improve customer conversions, communications, and the overall customer experience.

“With the complexities and speed required to successfully analyze risks for inbound and organic leads, NinjaEdge adds powerful differentiation for our clients,” Ocampo added. “The experience-based intelligence that NinjaEdge delivers versus other traditional and alternative data analytics providers enables lenders to convert more good applicants into profitable customers while at the same time reducing defaults.”

“Through Tekambi’s platform, their clients can now leverage NinjaEdge to unlock insights from nearly every checking or savings account nationwide,” said Reshefsky. “We simplify everything from accessing the best possible bank dataset to distilling an ocean of risk signals for better-informed, forward-looking lending decisions.”
