Detailed Process Comparison: Before and After AI
1. Current State (As-Is): The 12-Day Delay
The initial process relied heavily on sequential, manual underwriting and risk review, leading to high processing costs and slow response times, confirming an average Time-to-Approval of 12 days.
| Manual Data Input & Validation | Data was manually entered and cross-referenced with external credit bureaus, causing errors and multiple re-checks. | 3-5 days of initial unpredictable delay; high error risk. |
| Sequential Underwriter Review | Low-risk and high-risk cases were treated equally, clogging the underwriter queue. | Significant downtime accumulated due to uniform processing of all cases. |
2. Future State (To-Be): The 4-Day AI Optimized Blueprint
The Dragon1 AI BPMN Process Architect generated the Future State model, embedding a smart AI decision module to automate screening and parallelize validation, achieving a Time-to-Approval of 4 days (a 65% reduction).
| AI Eligibility & Risk Gate | Automated pre-check against mandatory criteria and immediate routing of standard/low-risk applications for fast-track approval. | 80% faster initial scoring and immediate parallel data validation. |
| Parallelized Data Validation | Credit, identity, and income verification run concurrently, eliminating sequential waiting periods. | Reduced Time-to-Approval by ~1 week by minimizing dead time. |
