TrustFlow AI

How TrustFlow AI Turns 48-Hour Underwriting Into 60-Second Approvals ⚡

Let's be real: if you're still manually reviewing bank statements line by line, calculating cash flow on spreadsheets, and taking 24-48 hours to approve loans... you're not just slow. You're losing deals to competitors who figured this out years ago. 😬

Today's borrowers expect Amazon-level speed. They want to:

·       Apply online in minutes

·       Get approved instantly

·       Receive funds immediately (hello, RTP!)

Meanwhile, your analyst is on page 14 of a PDF bank statement, squinting at transaction descriptions, trying to figure out if "AMZN MKTP" is a business expense or personal shopping.

🤦There's a better way. Welcome to the world of automated underwriting powered by TrustFlow AI—where lending decisions happen in seconds, not days, and your team can finally focus on growing the business instead of drowning in paperwork.

😱 The Pain of Manual Underwriting (We've All Been There)

Picture this totally-not-made-up scenario:

Monday 9 AM: Borrower submits loan application

Monday 11 AM: Analyst Sarah finally gets to it after coffee

Monday 11:30 AM: Realizes she needs additional documents

Monday 2 PM: Borrower uploads 3-month bank statements (83 pages of PDFs)

Tuesday 10 AM: Sarah starts reviewing transactions one by one

Tuesday 3 PM: Sarah's eyes are bleeding from reading transaction descriptions

Wednesday 11 AM: Sarah calculates average monthly income (it's complicated)

Wednesday 2 PM: Manager Bob reviews Sarah's work

Wednesday 4 PM: Loan approved! 🎉

Wednesday 4:05 PM: Borrower already got funded by your competitor 😭

Total time: 55+ hours

Borrower experience: Awful

Sarah's sanity: Barely intact

Deal outcome: LOST

Sound familiar? Yeah, we thought so.

🎯 What Modern Automated Underwriting Actually Looks Like

Now imagine this instead:

Monday 9 AM: Borrower submits application

Monday 9:01 AM: TrustFlow AI connects to their bank account (with permission)

Monday 9:01:15 AM: AI analyzes 24 months of transactions in milliseconds

Monday 9:01:30 AM: Machine learning model scores the risk

Monday 9:01:45 AM: Loan approved automatically

Monday 9:02 AM: RTP funding hits borrower's account

Total time: 2 minutes

Borrower experience: "WOW!" 🤩Sarah's sanity: Preserved (she's working on growth initiatives now)

Deal outcome: WON

That's not science fiction. That's what Liftoff Platform's Trust Flow AI does every single day for smart lenders.

🔥 Meet TrustFlow AI: Your New Underwriting Superpower

Trust Flow AI is Liftoff Platform's game-changing automated underwriting solution that gives you superhuman insight into every borrower—instantly.

What Makes TrustFlow AI Different?

Unlike basic account verification tools (looking at you, basic Plaid integrations 👀), TrustFlow AI goes deep into the data to give you insights that would take human analysts hours or days to uncover.

💪 The TrustFlow AI Superpowers

1 Real-Time Bank Account Intelligence

TrustFlow AI doesn't just check if the account exists. It reads 24 months of transaction history like a financial detective novel and tells you the plot twists before they happen.

What You Get:

·       Available Balance - Right now, this second

·       Average Daily Balance - Is it consistently healthy or a rollercoaster?

·       Max and Min Balances - See the highs and lows

·       Current Account Balance - Real-time accuracy

·       Pending Withdrawals - What's about to hit

Why This Matters:A borrower with $5,000 balance looks great... until you realize they have$6,000 in pending withdrawals and their average daily balance is $200. 👀

TrustFlow AI catches this instantly. Manual review? Good luck spotting that without several cups of coffee.

2 Cash Flow Report That Tells the Whole Story 📊

This is where TrustFlow AI gets really smart. It analyzes income and expense patterns with the precision of a financial forensics team.

What You Get:

·       💰 True Revenue Flow - Actual money coming in (not just "stated income")

·       🚨 NSF History - How often do they bounce payments?

·       📈 Trending and Balance Insights - Are things getting better or worse?

·       💸 Inflow and Outflow Transactions - Complete cash flow picture

·       📅 24 Months of Transaction History - Long-term patterns revealed

The Secret Sauce:

TrustFlow AI doesn't just count deposits. It understands the quality of those deposits:

·       Is it consistent payroll?

·       Is it sporadic gig work? 🤔

·       Is it someone moving money between their own accounts? 🚩

·       Are there concerning patterns of gambling or crypto? 🎰

Human analysts can spot some of this. TrustFlow AI spots all of it. In seconds.

3 Small Business Risk Metrics 🏪If you lend to small businesses, this feature is chef's kiss 👨🍳💋

What You Get:

4 Payment Success Indicator 🎯

This is the feature that makes CFOs cry tears of joy. (The good kind.)

What It Does:

TrustFlow AI looks at the borrower's account activity and gives you a 10-day forecast predicting the best days to initiate ACH payments for maximum success.

Why This Is HUGE:

·       📉 Reduce NSF Returns - Withdraw when they actually have money

·       💰 Increase Collection Rates - Higher success = more revenue

·       😊 Happier Borrowers - No embarrassing bounced payments

·       Smart Timing - Hit them after payday, not before

Example: Borrower gets paid every other Friday. TrustFlow AI tells you: "Best withdrawal window is Saturday-Tuesday after payday. Avoid Monday before payday (87% NSF rate)."

That's like having a time machine for collections.

5 Account Owner Verification 🔐

Identity fraud is expensive. TrustFlow AI helps you avoid it.

Verification Includes:

·       Account holder names

·       Phone numbers on file

·       Documentation cross-reference

·       All listed addresses

Fraud Detection Bonus:

TrustFlow AI spots red flags like:

·       🚩 Name mismatches

·       🚩 Recently opened accounts

·       🚩 Multiple accounts at different banks (structuring?)

·       🚩 Unusual transaction patterns

·       🚩 Synthetic identity indicators

6 ACH & RTP Verification 💳

Know exactly what payment methods the account supports before you try to fund them.

What It Checks:

·       Can receive ACH payments

·       Can send ACH payments

·       Supports Real-Time Payments (RTP)

·       Supports services like Zelle

Why This Matters:

Nothing worse than trying to instant-fund via RTP only to discover their bank doesn't support it.

TrustFlow AI tells you upfront so you can choose the right payment rail.

💡 Pro Tips from Lenders Already Using Trust Flow AI

Set up automated payment scheduling based on Trust Flow AI's 10-day forecast. Watch your collection success rate skyrocket.

Tip #3: Create Product Tiers Based on Risk

Use Trust Flow AI scores to offer different products:

·       Poor score: Decline or refer to specialized product

Result: More approvals, better risk-adjusted returns

Tip #4: Market Your Speed

If you can approve loans in 60 seconds, tell everyone! Use it in marketing, put it on your website, emphasize it to borrowers.

Result: Competitive differentiation, higher conversion

Tip #5: Monitor the Metrics Dashboard

Trust Flow AI provides analytics on:

·       Approval rates by segment

·       Default rates by risk score
