Chatbot for Banks

  • Bland AI’s self-hosted chatbot for banks gives customers instant account access while keeping data on your infrastructure. Give your customers 24/7 answerability without exposing financial data to third-party AI providers.

Why Bland’s Chatbot for Banks?

For CIOs: ownership and control

We provide self-hosted models so your infrastructure holds customer data and you define access policies. That approach reduces exposure to third parties and makes it easier to demonstrate data locality for audits.

For Compliance: auditability and policy enforcement

Conversations include regulatory audit trails and policy checkpoints so interactions can be reviewed and retained per governance rules. These built-in controls shorten audit cycles and give your compliance team clear evidence without extra engineering work.

For Customer Experience: fast, consistent answers

Customers get instant balance checks, statement requests, and fraud notifications without waiting for business hours. The consistent responses cut down repeat contacts and improve first contact resolution metrics.

For Operations: reduce cost and manual work

Routing routine requests to the chatbot frees agents to handle complex cases that drive revenue. That shift lowers average handling costs and gives operations clearer capacity for higher-value tasks.

Bank-Grade Security and Compliance

Self-hosted protection and data residency

Our architecture keeps model inference and customer content inside your network so no customer content leaves your infrastructure. That design makes it straightforward to meet multi-region residency requirements and keeps control with your security team.

Certifications and audit trails

We are built to support SOC2 Type II readiness and GDPR controls with transaction logs and conversational audit trails. Those artifacts make audits faster and provide cleaner evidence for regulators.

Encryption and secure integrations

All connections are encrypted in transit and at rest and APIs use mutual TLS and tokenized credentials. Core banking integrations follow least privilege access so only necessary data is available for each interaction.

No OpenAI or Anthropic exposure

We do not route customer financial content through OpenAI or Anthropic. That means predictable control over model behavior and no third-party AI access to sensitive banking conversations.

Data Retention and Deletion Policies

The platform offers configurable retention windows and deletion controls so you can meet regulatory retention requirements. Administrators can set automated purging rules and produce retention reports for audits.

Real value delivery

Core banking use cases and integrations

For CIOs: ownership and control

Customers can check balances, view transaction history, request statements, and activate cards via chat. These tasks are executed with real-time core banking calls so answers are accurate and auditable.

Fraud alerts and verification

The chatbot will notify customers of suspicious activity, ask verification questions, and flag items to fraud systems when needed. That flow reduces the time between alert and response and ensures actions are logged for review.

Payments, transfers, and confirmations

Support for payment status, bill pay help, and transfers integrates with payment processors to confirm execution. The bot enforces transaction limits and triggers escalation when policies require human approval.

CRM, fraud systems, and core banking integration

We connect to CRM platforms, fraud engines, and core banking systems using secure connectors so context flows into every interaction. That connection keeps agent handoffs clean and preserves a single source of truth for customer records.

Operational gains and measurable ROI

Before and after: service desk example

Before: customers wait for business hours for routine balance checks and statement requests. After: a self-hosted assistant answers those questions instantly, reducing agent load and letting staff focus on high-value interactions.

Quantifiable outcomes and time to value

Deployments typically go live in weeks so you start capturing value quickly. This short time to live helps finance and operations teams see measurable reductions in ticket volumes and handling time.

Day in the life after deployment

Frontline agents see fewer repeated tasks and can escalate only the most complex cases. Operations teams get clearer throughput data and compliance teams receive structured logs for reporting and trend analysis.

Common KPIs to track

Track first contact resolution, average handling time, ticket volume, and fraud response time to measure impact. Those KPIs show direct operational savings and support a business case for broader rollout.

Deploy, Integrate, and Support

Fast implementation and banking-expert support

We deploy on your infrastructure and integrate with your core systems using secure connectors. Our banking-expert engineers partner with your team to go live in weeks and document compliance checkpoints along the way.

Multi-channel delivery

Deliver consistent service across web chat, mobile app, SMS, and voice so customers interact where they prefer. Each channel enforces the same security controls and audit trails to keep governance consistent.

Human-in-loop and escalation controls

When conversations require human attention the system routes relevant context and transcripts to agents. That reduces transfer friction and keeps sensitive actions inside approved escalation paths.

Ongoing support and SLA options

Choose from managed support or a co-managed model with clear SLAs for uptime and incident response. Regular reviews help tune conversational pathways and maintain compliance standards.
