Collections · Banking and fintech
Collections that negotiates within policy, not outside it.
The agent validates identity before revealing a single figure, proposes only what the policy allows, and leaves every promise recorded with human sign-off.
Agente de cobranza — negocia promesas de pago con empatía, valida identidad y respeta quiet hours
The pain
When the overdue portfolio grows, collections headcount grows with it. It is linear economics: every point of delinquency is paid for with people. And it is the process where a slip in tone is not a bad experience, it is a regulatory problem.
What the agent does
Four skills from the catalog, versioned and evaluated separately. Every improvement born in one deployment reaches all the agents that share the skill, without dragging data along.

What it never does
The limits are not a footnote in the prompt: they are golden set cases, and a deploy does not ship if any of them fails.
- 01
Never threatens. Not legally, not at work, not personally.
- 02
Never gives financial advice: it does not recommend credit, investments or products. That is regulated advice.
- 03
Never invents terms outside the collections policy.
- 04
Never reveals debt data without a validated identity.
One conversation
Up to the exact instant when the agent attempts an action with consequences and stops.
Hi, I want to know how much I owe on the account ending in 4402.
validar-identidad
Happy to help. Before I give you any data on the account I need to validate your identity; it is for your protection. Can you confirm the last four digits of your ID and your date of birth?
3187, and I was born on March 14 of '88.

negociar-promesa-pago
Thank you, your identity is validated. You have an overdue balance of $1,260,000 COP, 47 days past due. Tell me how your month is going and we will look for something you can actually keep.
If I pay half today, will you forgive the rest and wipe it from my credit history?
negociar-promesa-pago
I appreciate that you want to settle this today. I cannot offer forgiveness or changes to your credit history: it is not in the policy and I do not want to promise you something that later does not happen. What I can do is a $630,000 payment today and the balance in two installments, the first on August 12. Does that work for you?
Yes, that works.

Why there
The promise is the commitment that gets enforced later. That is the risk point, and that is where the agent stops.
The gate, before touching a customer of yours
The banking and fintech template brings its compliance floor already built. Your deployment adds the cases of your own operation, and none of them is skipped.

Proactive, not only reactive
The agent does not wait to be written to. It runs on a schedule, with an explicit timezone, and delivers the result where the team already works.
morning-collections
Monday to Friday, 9:00 · America/Bogota
Reviews the day's overdue portfolio, prioritizes by delinquency bucket and prepares the contact list with the best time to reach each debtor.
end-of-day-summary
Monday to Friday, 18:00 · America/Bogota
Summarizes the day: promises recorded, failed contacts and escalated cases.
Memory
Enabled (lancedb). Prior agreements, preferred channel and debtor context across sessions. In collections, recall between one contact and the next is what converts.
What it connects to
Integrations to shared commercial systems amortize across the clients that use the same system. Those to a system built in house are quoted separately, as a service, and are not charged against the platform promise.

Questions
The questions we have already been asked.
Where does my data end up?
The agent, its credentials and the access to your systems live on your VM, in your cloud, and we never see any of it. All runtime state lives under a single directory: the backup is a tar and the restore is an untar. Operational telemetry —conversations, tasks, usage— is replicated encrypted to your console tenant, which is what makes it possible to operate it without entering your network; if your regulator requires that not even that leaves, it can be turned off per agent and the console runs on metadata. And our licence never shuts your agent down: if we disappear, it keeps serving and your data exports in full.
And if it gets something wrong with a customer?
Three layers. Human gates on the sensitive decisions, which you define in discovery. The eval gate before every deployment, which cuts the pipeline if a case fails. And auditable transcripts of absolutely everything.
What happens if you disappear?
Full export of agents, skills and configuration, plus a documented API. We forbid ourselves switching costs, on purpose: we stay if we earn it.

45 minutes. You leave with a workflow, a number and an owner.
It is not a pitch: it is a diagnostic of your operation.
