Financial institutions are increasingly expected to deliver transparent, personalised and real-time customer service and insights, yet they operate with fragmented, incomplete data, and AI tools that are unreliable in regulated environments.  Critical information including pensions, investments, insurance, utilities and tax records, sit outside open banking, forcing financial services into manual workflows and static reporting that erode client trust.  DataWollet solves this by providing Europes first full-spectrum Open Finance platform: a single, secure gateway that gives regulated firms instant access to complete, verified consumer financial data.  Powered by proprietary, logic-based AI that is fully explainable and incapable of hallucination, DataWollet transforms how financial services understand and support customers, eliminating the need for manual data entry and evidence acquisition, all with regulatory-grade accuracy and privacy by design. So what? Save an hour per loan case. Increase conversion by >20% Delight customers Integrate seamlessly with as little as 4 lines of code today, so your advisers can, well....., advise.
