AI-POWERED CREDIT ANALYSIS

Turn Borrower Information Into Decision-Ready Credit Analysis

Decipher helps commercial credit teams analyze deal information, including financial statements, tax returns, bank activity, A/R, A/P, inventory, cash flow, real estate information or other deal data into one connected underwriting workflow.

Decipher assists with AI-powered document processing and analysis while experienced credit professionals remain responsible for interpreting risk, structuring the transaction, and making credit recommendations.

What is commercial underwriting software

Commercial Loan Underwriting Software Reduces Manual Credit Preparation

Commercial loan underwriting software helps lenders organize and evaluate borrower financial information, repayment capacity, collateral, supporting documents, third-party information, and other credit risks within a consistent underwriting process.

Commercial underwriting varies by lending product. Asset-based lending may depend heavily on receivables, inventory, and borrowing-base availability, while C&I lending may emphasize cash flow and repayment capacity and real estate lending may focus more heavily on property and sponsor economics.

Decipher brings those different forms of credit analysis into one configurable platform.

Why it matters

Spend More Time Evaluating Credit and Less Time Preparing It

Commercial underwriters often spend significant time gathering, re-keying, spreading, reconciling, and organizing information before they can begin evaluating the actual credit. A single deal may require financial statements, bank information, A/R and A/P agings, inventory reports, real estate information, collateral information, business verification, tax returns, and other supporting documents. Decipher uses AI-assisted document processing, structured analysis, and connected workflows to reduce that preparation work and give underwriters faster access to usable credit information.

  • Reduce Re-Keying

    Extract and organize supported financial and borrower information instead of manually entering the same data into separate spreadsheets and templates.

  • Centralize the Credit File

    Bring documents, financial analysis, bank information, collateral data, verification results, and underwriting notes together around the borrower and transaction.

  • Surface Trends and Exceptions Faster

    Structure information across periods and data sources so underwriters can identify changes, concentrations, exceptions, and questions that require deeper review.

  • Keep the Underwriter in Control

    Decipher prepares and organizes the analysis. Credit professionals determine what the information means, how the transaction should be structured, and what should move forward.

Core capabilities

Commercial Credit Analysis in One Connected Underwriting Workflow

  1. AI-Powered Document Processing

    Turn supported financial statements, tax returns, aging reports, bank documents, and other borrower materials into structured information that can be used throughout the credit analysis. Credit professionals can review the resulting information in the context of the underlying source documents.

  2. Financial Spreading & Cash Flow Analysis

    Organize financial statements across periods to evaluate profitability, liquidity, leverage, trends, repayment capacity, and other relevant measures. Use configured cash flow approaches based on the lender's credit methodology and lending product.

  3. Business & Personal Tax Return Analysis

    Extract and organize information from supported business and personal tax returns, schedules, K-1s, and related forms so tax information can become part of the connected underwriting analysis.

  4. Bank Account Analysis

    Review supported bank activity, balances, deposits, withdrawals, returned items, and other relevant patterns alongside the borrower's broader credit information.

  5. A/R, A/P & Inventory Analysis

    Structure aging and collateral information to help underwriters evaluate concentrations, past-due balances, customer and vendor exposure, inventory composition, and other working-capital risks.

  6. Borrowing Base & Ineligibles

    Apply configured eligibility criteria to applicable collateral information and review eligible collateral, ineligibles, concentrations, availability, and supporting detail.

  7. Business, Identity & Risk Verification

    Bring relevant KYB/KYC, OFAC, business verification, credit data, and other supported third-party information into the credit file.

  8. Real Estate & Transaction Analysis

    Support property, borrower, guarantor, experience, structure, project, and financial analysis for applicable real estate and private lending workflows.

How it works

From Credit File to Credit Recommendation

  1. Receive the Credit-Ready File

    Borrower information, documents, verification results, and transaction context flow from origination into underwriting.

  2. Structure the Information

    Supported documents and connected data are organized into financial, tax, bank, collateral, and borrower information that can be reviewed and analyzed.

  3. Analyze the Credit

    Underwriters evaluate financial performance, cash flow, collateral, repayment capacity, borrower strength, risks, and exceptions.

  4. Apply Credit Judgment

    The underwriter interprets the findings, investigates questions, evaluates mitigants, and determines the appropriate structure and recommendation.

  5. Move Into Decisioning

    The analysis, risks, proposed structure, supporting information, and recommendation can flow into the credit memo, scorecard, and approval workflow.

Where AI helps

Use AI for the Repetitive Work. Keep Credit Judgment With Your Team.

AI can be highly effective at document-intensive tasks such as classifying files, extracting data, organizing information, identifying relevant content, and preparing structured analysis. Commercial underwriting still requires context. A concentration may be acceptable in one transaction and problematic in another. A weak financial period may have an explanation. A collateral exception may have a valid mitigant. Decipher uses AI to help prepare and surface the information. Credit professionals determine what that information means.

Decipher centralizes the credit workflow without requiring the lender to replace its servicing, factoring, CRM, or core lending platform.

Decipher connects documents, website and CRM intake with origination, underwriting, decisioning and existing operating systems.
