?? Excitement continues around technology partnership in this industry - we have a lot of passionate founders here at VentureTech! ?? There are 15 Fintech Pitch Participants, of which 10 present today. This morning we heard from: ??Nudge Money - personalized financial guidance at scale ??Wysh - Life Benefit, embedded and innovative deposit solution ??Savvi AI - empowering FIs to create custom AI solutions for actionable insights ??ModernFi - powering deposit growth through a deposit network ??Crux Analytics - analytics platform empowering business bankers to drive primary relationships with small businesses ?? Only caught the Nudge team for selfies so far (bright shirts help!), but #creditunion friends, you know what to do…go check these 5 #fintechs out! ?? ModernFi won most votes this round and will move into the 3-way battle in the finals. ?? ???I unfortunately missed Charles Vice, NCUA Director of Financial Technology & Access, but glad I got a chance to connect with him later along with Rodney E. Hood. The reason for my miss was because Kyle and I had to catch our Studio Lounge slot with the always awesome Mike Lawson! ?? One thing I do appreciate about this conference is shared excitement about what is out there, curiosity about diving deeper, and the way in which connections happen. This is woven throughout with the panels like the one today “Value of the Relationship-Fintech and Credit Unions Growing Together.” A few additional shoutouts: Filip Danielewicz and Glen Sarvady for some excellent interactions and questions today and also finally met John San Filippo of Finopotamus - appreciate what they all do for the industry! Lots more notes and pictures to process! But for now, back to paying attention! ?? #VentureTech2024 #creditunions #JanuseaConnections

?? Excited to share what Saisi and I have been building! Introducing Casap: the first AI-powered platform designed to revolutionize payment ops for financial institutions of all sizes, starting with disputes and chargebacks. ?? While scaling operations and support for 40 million consumers at Robinhood and Chime respectively, we saw firsthand how standard banking operations and fragmented processes are failing financial institutions. A major issue is the over 200 million disputes that emerge each year, costing the top 15 U.S. banks $3 billion annually just to process these claims! Most financial institutions are forced to hire large teams, navigate complex regulations, and outsource chargebacks. Yet, they still struggle to meet consumer expectations—50% of consumers will switch banks if they are not getting the service they want and expect. This didn’t sit right with us. We believe that all financial institutions – the scaling fintech platforms, innovative credit unions, and forward-thinking banks – should be able to deliver differentiated consumer experiences and optimize their back-office operations at a fraction of today’s cost. We knew it was time to level the playing field, so we started building Casap. Casap’s AI-powered automations and proprietary “first-party fraud score”, similar to a FICO score, combine to resolve a dispute end-to-end without human intervention. Our platform intelligently analyzes evidence, predicts outcomes, and automates key actions—such as issuing credits, filing chargebacks, and responding to merchants—while using our fraud score to identify suspicious consumers and merchants to proactively reduce disputes. I’m incredibly proud of what we’re building at Casap. The impact is already being felt by credit unions, fintechs, BaaS providers, and sponsor banks, and we’re just getting started. Chartway Credit Union, one of our earliest adopters, sees a 29% cost savings from day one, with even greater efficiencies ahead. We’re changing how financial institutions operate—and we’re onto something BIG! Thank you to our incredible investors Lightspeed, Primary Venture Partners, Commerce Ventures, Curql, Alloy Labs and all the advisors and mentors who have made this journey possible.
