ARBITER
Financial intelligence infrastructure

Financial intelligence, made accountable

A better case for every lending decision.

Arbiter turns bank statements into reconciled financial evidence—so lending teams can assess affordability with clarity, speed and an audit trail.

The source stays beside the judgement.

From document to decision

A lending decision should be able to show its work.

Arbiter preserves the relationship between the source statement, its normalized transactions, calculated profile and the policy used to assess it.

01

Ingest the original evidence

Upload a PDF, CSV or XLSX statement for a customer. Encrypted PDFs can be supplied with a password, while processing continues asynchronously.

02

Reconcile every movement

Transactions are extracted, normalized and checked against running balances. A continuity break remains visible—it never disappears into a summary.

03

Build the financial profile

Recurring income, essential expenses, existing debt and cash-flow behaviour become a readable record for underwriting teams.

04

Assess against policy

Arbiter calculates affordability and returns decision reasons, warnings and the policy snapshot behind the result. Review cases stay in the dual approval workflow.

Designed for the judgement around the number

Financial intelligence without the black box.

Deterministic decisions

Capacity, DTI and residual income are calculated against a defined affordability policy.

Review when context matters

Low-confidence parsing, integrity concerns and behavioural flags can route directly to review.

Traceable records

Assessment inputs, outcomes and policy snapshots are retained for a defensible decision trail.

Sensitive by design

Financial records are tenant-scoped, masked where needed and handled through role-based access controls.

For product and engineering teams

Integrate the decision trail, not just a score.

Use the same workflow as the Arbiter workspace: upload a statement, track its status, retrieve analysis and submit a proposed loan for assessment.
