Directory of digital banking engagement platform vendors using AI

Alkami sells a digital sales and service platform to regional and community banks and credit unions, built around what it calls anticipatory banking: using account holder data to predict needs and surface the next offer. MANTL onboarding opens retail accounts in about five minutes and business accounts in about ten, and connects to 25 of the leading core systems. Digital banking serves retail, small business and commercial account holders, with voice activated transactions across devices that hand off to live agents, business payments from a Nacha Preferred Partner, and a software development kit and interfaces that let institutions and certified partners build their own features. Data and marketing adds predictive AI models that tag account holders by likely loan adoption, deposit growth and attrition risk, and operational data insights give frontline staff 90 days of near real time user activity. Fraud tools sit across the platform, with AI and machine learning detection built on behavioral biometrics, real time anomaly detection and mule account monitoring, alongside account takeover defense, Check and automated clearing house (ACH) Positive Pay and phishing takedown. Gate City Bank reports a 63 times average return on the data and marketing solution over the last year, and Alliant Credit Union raised $500 million in deposits in six months with MANTL. More than 6,500 new users join the platform each day. The company is based in Plano, Texas.

Backbase sells an engagement platform that sits above a bank's existing core, payments, cards, risk and customer relationship systems rather than replacing them. In April 2026 it relaunched the platform as an AI native Banking OS with four layers: Nexus, a shared record of every customer, account, product and case; an orchestration layer for journeys, cases and agent workflows; Sentinel, an authority layer that checks every action by a customer, employee or agent against bank policy before it runs; and an intelligence layer that learns from resolved cases and human overrides. Kasisto's agentic platform joined in June 2026, and Conversational Banking, generally available since October 2026, lets customers ask in chat or voice to block a card, check a payment or move a service request, with agents acting inside the bank's permissions and handing exceptions to staff. Banks can run the platform on premises, in their own cloud or on Backbase's managed hosting on Microsoft Azure. More than 120 banks use it, including Navy Federal Credit Union and I&M Bank. Backbase is led by its founder, Jouk Pleiter, with headquarters in Amsterdam and Atlanta.

Candescent sells digital banking software to more than 1,300 US banks and credit unions, whose platforms serve over 30 million registered users. Based in Atlanta, it combines four businesses with long histories in the market: Digital Insight and D3 Banking Technology for online and mobile banking, Terafina for account opening, and Channel Services for branch and assisted banking. A lending and credit module adds digital applications and automated decisioning, with rules and data services guiding approvals, declines and conditions. Its AI sits in the platform's security and engagement layers. Behavioral and device signals score risk in real time and call for extra verification only when the score warrants it, and an intelligence layer turns an institution's data into next best actions and offers inside digital banking. Votiv, a conversational experience built on Google's Gemini and unveiled at Candescent's client conference in 2026, summarizes a member's finances, flags problems such as a bill the balance cannot quite cover and acts on requests. It is rolling out from the second half of 2026, with PSECU, a $10 billion credit union, its first new client. The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council examines Candescent as a technology service provider, and a SOC 2 Type II attestation covers all of its products. Apple Bank and Fidelity Bank are recent account opening clients, and Eko's embedded investing became available on the platform in October 2026.

Crealogix has built digital banking software in Zurich since 1996, starting with Switzerland's first online banking service for Credit Suisse. Banks, private banks, wealth managers and development banks run client portals, mobile apps and adviser tools on its Digital Hub, a cloud platform that sits above their core systems. The company has grown to more than 380 digital experts. Crealogix Conversational AI is its AI product: a chat and voice assistant for bank customers that works in more than 15 languages, Arabic among them, and learns from the conversations it handles. The other products are a funding portal for development banks, a lending origination hub and a server for the Electronic Banking Internet Communication Standard (EBICS), the European standard for exchanging payment files between banks and their business clients. Customers include LGT, Killik & Co, St. Galler Kantonalbank, Deutsche Kreditbank, Raisin, Helaba and seven German development banks, among them WIBank. Vencora, an operating group of Constellation Software, bought Crealogix in February 2024 and took it off the SIX Swiss Exchange that November. It runs as its own brand under interim chief executive Sue Sampson Laws.

ebankIT sells an omnichannel digital banking platform to banks and credit unions, running web, mobile and branch channels for retail, small business and commercial customers on one stack. Founded in Porto in 2014, it licenses the platform to institutions in 13 countries and has offices in London, Atlanta, Vancouver and Berlin. In Switzerland it runs on the Finstar core used by Hypothekarbank Lenzburg and its partner banks, and in Canada it connects to Central 1's payment services for credit unions. Its AI sits in four places. An anti fraud layer reads behavioral signals, such as typing rhythm, mouse movement and navigation, and adds machine learning risk scores to catch account takeover even when the right credentials are used. Digital onboarding pairs AI validation with business rules. A Digital Concierge in the mobile app sends personal notifications and financial suggestions matched to each customer's preferences. And an AI banking assistant, unveiled at FinovateFall in September 2025 and built on Azure OpenAI GPT-4.1 and Azure AI Speech, carries out tasks such as reviewing subscriptions or freezing a card at the account holder's direction, though no institution is yet named as running it. Customers include Coast Capital, Servus Credit Union, Alterna, Home Trust, Caisse Alliance, African Bank, Hypothekarbank Lenzburg, Kuwait International Bank and Metropolitan Commercial Bank.

Narmi sells a digital banking platform to community banks and credit unions, founded by two people who had run a community financial institution as its chief executive and technology chief. Its Narmi One suite covers consumer and business banking, account opening, instant payments over FedNow, fraud prevention, lending and a back office for staff, with integrations to cores including Corelation Keystone, Symitar, Fiserv DNA and Jack Henry Silverlake. Account opening results are published by name: Arrowhead Credit Union raised its completion rate from 40 to about 75 percent, and FOCUS Bank went live 62 days after kickoff. Narmi AI runs inside that platform at no additional cost. Staff get an AI assistant in secure messages that summarizes, drafts and translates replies, AI built audiences for promotions, an AI search bar, and DecisionAssist, which turns identity verification data into plain language recommendations for each account opening review. Business customers can connect Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant to their accounts through a read only Model Context Protocol server. Staff facing features run on Anthropic's Claude through AWS Bedrock, and every agentic workflow waits for staff approval before it acts. Customers include First Citizens' Federal Credit Union, Grasshopper Bank, Greater Alliance Federal Credit Union, Beacon Bank, Meridian Trust Federal Credit Union and FOCUS Bank.

NETinfo sells a digital banking platform from Nicosia, Cyprus, where it has built online banking software since 2000. Banks use its omnichannel engagement hub to run retail, small business, corporate and wealth management banking across web and mobile, and the platform reaches more than 30 million end users in 25 countries. ANSA Bank runs it as a hosted service on Microsoft Azure, with digital onboarding and joint applicant workflows, and Celent featured NETinfo in its 2025 retail, small business and corporate digital banking platform reports. Its AI comes in three forms. A customer service assistant powered by Flametree works in more than 150 languages across voice, chat, email and messaging apps, resolves about half of requests on its own, from balance checks to transfers and card blocking, and hands the rest to human agents with copilot suggestions. Digital onboarding verifies identity through AI facial matching and liveness detection. CX Insights analyzes how customers use digital channels by age, gender, location and segment. Banks can run the platform on premises, in a private or public cloud, or as a service NETinfo hosts.

Q2 Holdings sells the digital engagement layer that banks, credit unions, alternative finance companies and fintechs put in front of their customers, spanning retail, small business and commercial banking on a single platform. That single platform claim is the commercial thesis rather than an architecture note, because running consumer and commercial banking on one system gives the company behavioral signal across both, which it uses to argue a data advantage in detecting account takeover. The company describes its position as a system of context, capturing real time digital signals across logins, transactions, alerts, messages and user decisions at the engagement layer, while also operating at the execution layer where workflows run and transactions complete. AI is concentrated in three stated areas: banker efficiency, fraud prevention and personalization. Three named AI products arrived during 2026. Q2 Code, announced 16 April 2026, is a governed development environment that turns natural language prompts into extensions compliant with the company's software development kit. It is built for teams working through Q2 Innovation Studio, and the company states openly that it is built with Anthropic's Claude Code running on Amazon Bedrock. Q2 Assistant, launched 2 June 2026, is a unified conversational layer embedded across the product portfolio. It connects to product specific agents that execute tasks, beginning with a Customer Care Agent inside Digital Banking, and is stated to run under the same data isolation, audit logging and compliance controls the platform applies elsewhere. It serves institution staff rather than account holders, acts only within the roles and permissions an institution defines, leaves consequential actions for staff to approve, and never uses institution data to train models across the platform. A separate account takeover product using behavioral signals reported double digit early adopters in its first quarters. Security controls run deep. The company publishes a SOC 2 Type II report covering security and confidentiality for its software platform, and describes a dedicated enterprise security, risk and compliance function with several external reviews each year. Its cybersecurity mesh architecture lets one tool inform the others, alongside zero trust and behavioral anomaly detection. A data protection capability fragments payment card data across a private blockchain network. Its platform migration moved online banking stacks for more than 450 financial institutions onto Amazon Web Services. Scale is reported under securities law. Second quarter 2026 revenue was $219.8 million, up 13 percent. Subscription annualized recurring revenue was $826 million and total annualized recurring revenue $971 million, with backlog of $2.8 billion up 17 percent. The balance sheet is debt free after repaying convertible notes. More than 1,200 financial institutions run on the platform, reaching more than 27 million digital banking users, with average customer contract length above ten years and initial commitments averaging more than five. Q2 has built digital banking for banks and credit unions for more than 21 years. The company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and headquartered in Austin, Texas.

Temenos sells core banking, digital banking, payments, wealth and financial crime software to more than 950 banks, which run it on premises, in their own cloud or as software as a service on the Temenos Banking Cloud. Founded in 1993 and listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, it is headquartered in Geneva. Its AI sits inside those products. The Financial Crime Mitigation (FCM) AI Agent evaluates low risk sanctions screening alerts automatically and explains each decision in plain language, Copilot for Core helps staff serve customers, Copilot for Workbench writes code extensions that experts approve, and AI Studio lets a bank build, validate, deploy and monitor its own models, with ready model families for retail credit scoring, wealth next best product and sanctions screening. Hamilton Reserve Bank moved to fully digital onboarding on Temenos Digital, cutting account opening from five days to 20 minutes.

Tyfone sells nFinia, a digital banking platform for community banks and credit unions, with retail, business and youth banking, digital account opening and loan origination, instant payments and Skip a Pay. Its AI layer, Fathom, was unveiled with nFinia Reimagined on 26 August 2026. Account holders ask questions in plain language and get answers grounded in their institution's own content, query their accounts and spending, and move from the answer to an action such as moving money, stopping a check or pausing a card. Every money movement is pre loaded for the account holder to review and submit, so nothing moves without explicit consent. Institutions run Fathom from a command center that scores uploaded content for relevance and answer coverage before it goes live and logs every prompt and answer. iTHINK Financial, a $2.3 billion credit union, is the first customer to launch it, expected this fall. The platform also layers AI powered fraud detection, biometrics and account takeover prevention into logins and transactions, with BioCatch for account takeover and Mitek's Check Fraud Defender for check images. Tyfone bought ATTUNE on 1 September 2026, adding consumer and business account opening, deposit funding, and loan origination and servicing that also run alongside other cores and digital banking platforms. Its Instant Payment Xchange connects an institution's core to the FedNow Service. Metro Credit Union, O Bee Credit Union and Prestige Community Credit Union are among its 2026 selections. Tyfone is based in Portland, Oregon.
