nCino Analyst Digital Partner Cuts Commercial Relationship Review Time by Up to 70%, Enabling Financial Institutions to Build an AI-Augmented Credit Workforce

Enterprise bank deploys agentic AI in 36 minutes; credit teams shift from annual reviews to continuous portfolio monitoring

nCino, Inc., the platform for agentic banking, highlighted new customer results from nCino Analyst Digital Partner, a role-based AI agent. Built on over 14 years of banking-specific data, Analyst Digital Partner works alongside human credit professionals to transform how financial institutions manage relationship reviews and portfolio risk.

From Days to Hours — and Deployed in Minutes
Relationship reviews are among the most time-consuming responsibilities in commercial banking. Based on nCino customer interview research, bankers today spend anywhere from two days to a full week completing a single relationship review. Utilizing Analyst Digital Partner within nCino Commercial Lending, institutions are already reducing that effort by 60–70%, enabling credit teams to reinvest that time in higher-value work.

The operational impact extends beyond individual reviews. With this level of efficiency, institutions can shift from annual or quarterly review cadences to weekly or even daily cycles, enabling more proactive portfolio risk management that helps protect and grow the credit portfolio.

“Credit teams and bankers today are under real pressure. They’re managing growing portfolios with the same hours in the day and flat headcount,” said Chris Gufford, Chief Product Officer at nCino. “For teams spending up to a week on a single relationship review, the math is simple. Analyst Digital Partner gives them that time back, and then some. It’s a digital colleague that handles the analytical heavy lifting, so bankers can do what they do best: exercise judgment, deepen relationships and grow the business.”

And implementation isn’t slowing down time to value. One enterprise-sized U.S. financial institution went live with Analyst Digital Partner in just 36 minutes.

Building the Dual Workforce
From the C-suite to the front line, nCino’s Digital Partners are built to work alongside banking professionals, handling the high-volume, time-intensive work that slows teams down so humans can focus on the decisions, relationships and judgment calls that drive the business forward.

nCino’s dual workforce vision positions AI and human talent as a unified team rather than parallel workstreams. Analyst Digital Partner is the first role-based agent to deliver on that vision at scale. Where bankers bring judgment, relationship skills and domain expertise, Digital Partners contribute speed, consistency and analytical depth, so every member of the team can focus on the work that matters most.
Digital Partners are deployed, managed, measured and governed by nCino’s Agentic Operating System (AOS). The AOS sits atop the nCino Platform and delivers banking specific guardrails for how AI agents and humans work together across a financial institution’s entire operational ecosystem.

“Building AI that truly works not just in, but for financial services requires more than deploying a capable model. It requires the right foundation,” said Will Jung, Chief Technology Officer at nCino. “nCino Analyst Digital Partner is built on over a decade of banking-specific data and deployed within the operational context where credit decisions are already being made. That combination of domain depth and workflow integration is what separates purpose-built intelligence from generic AI adapted for banking after the fact.”

Analyst Digital Partner isn’t just bringing value to commercial credit professionals. For mortgage underwriters, it works the same way, eliminating manual effort, surfacing what matters and keeping originations moving. Doc VOI and AUS Smart Tasks are two of its core mortgage capabilities: one eliminates the manual effort of income verification, the other transforms AUS findings into clear action. Together, they close the gap between submission and clear-to-close.
