Software as a Worker: Agentic AI Comes to Collections

An adverse action notice can't say "because the bot told me so." That's the constraint on every AI risk model in lending, and it's where part two of our conversation lands. Jay Mossman of AKUVO and Dave Wasik of Second Order Solutions join host Barry Roach to work through where AI agents actually earn their place across the collections lifecycle, and where they don't. Dave maps the easy wins to the extremes: payment reminder nudges at one end, long defaulted accounts nobody could profitably dial at the other. The middle, where a borrower is severely delinquent and weighing bankruptcy, is where loss mitigation is won or lost, and it's the part lenders are slowest to hand over. Jay describes the wave he sees arriving now: agentic suites reading bankruptcy dockets, preparing proof of claim, tracking Chapter 13 payments, handling repossession and foreclosure. He has a name for the shift. Software as a service is becoming software as a worker. Then the hard part. The gating factor isn't model sophistication, it's explainability. Dave points to a PayPal settlement covering lending actions that were viewed as progress in 2020 and as discrimination five years later, and asks how a bank writes standards that outlast whoever is in power. This is part two of two.
