$2.7 billion-asset @AmFirst adopted Saris after record indirect lending volumes put pressure on its funding team. Now, one employee funded 50 loans in four hours, helping grow its dealer network without adding headcount.
$2.7 billion-asset AmFirst adopted Saris after record indirect lending volumes put pressure on its funding team. Employees spent much of each day comparing vehicle identification numbers, borrower information and other details across loan documents to confirm every requirement was met before funding. Leadership wanted a sustainable way to handle rising demand without adding staffing costs that would remain when auto lending volumes declined.
Saris AI agents cross-check required fields across loan documents and system records against the AmFirst’s policies. They flag exceptions and source citations so employees can investigate discrepancies before they create rework or title problems for members. The agents work within the credit union’s existing lending workflow, and AmFirst employees retain authority over every final funding decision. With Saris, AmFirst’s fastest funder reduced per-deal processing time to approximately four minutes, enabling her to complete and fund 50 loans in four hours, exceeding her previous best full-day output of 45.
AmFirst is targeting funding turnaround times of 60-90 minutes from deal receipt, to strengthen its ability to compete for new dealer business.
