Generative AI Customer Example: Ubiquity-AI – Simeone GPT Bot

1. Business Problem
Debt collection in the banking sector often occurs late in the credit lifecycle—typically after customers have defaulted or are unreachable. This results in increased operational costs, high default rates, and damaged customer relationships. Traditional debt collection processes rely heavily on human agents and static rule-based systems, leading to inefficiencies, missed recovery opportunities, and poor customer engagement.
2. Project Objective
To deploy a proactive, AI-powered chatbot—Simeone GPT—that assists the debt collection department by:
- Identifying which customers are likely to repay their outstanding debt.
- Reaching out automatically to those customers before they default.
- Offering flexible installment-based repayment options.
- Reducing the need for manual agent intervention.
- Maintaining a positive customer experience and preventing negative credit records.
3. Business Problem and Traditional Approach
Traditional Approach Challenges:
- Manual Risk Assessment: Debt repayment likelihood determined manually or with basic scoring tools.
- Delayed Engagement: Outreach occurred after default or customer disengagement.
- High Agent Dependency: Required significant agent time for each customer.
- Poor User Experience: Customers had limited self-service options for repayment.
- Lack of Predictive Insights: Inability to forecast repayment intent accurately.
4. Generative AI Solution on AWS
