LenderSquared partnership gives COCC clients access to AI-powered credit analysis, market intelligence, and prospecting tools purpose-built for commercial lenders
COCC, a leading provider of banking technology and services for community banks and credit unions, is excited to announce a strategic partnership with LenderSquared, a unified lending intelligence platform that integrates data, AI, and analytics to support credit, risk, and business development teams. Through this partnership, COCC clients will gain access to LenderSquared’s suite of tools designed to strengthen commercial underwriting, surface high-quality prospects, and deliver a clear picture of local market conditions.
LenderSquared’s unified data and artificial intelligence (AI) layer gives commercial lenders one consistent view across the entire workflow, from prospecting to annual reviews, eliminating vendor sprawl. It’s powered by a proprietary dataset covering 17 million small businesses across every North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code down to the zip-code level, putting the benchmark, the peer set, and the local-market context in one place, plus AI-powered prospecting that surfaces off-radar opportunities based on market signals, geography, and borrower needs.
“COCC has earned its reputation as one of the best-rated cores in the country by serving its clients relentlessly, and that’s the same commitment we strive to bring to LenderSquared. Together we’re putting best-in-class data, in the hands of best-in-class lenders, at the exact moment they need it, so they walk into every conversation more prepared and open every prospect relationship as a trusted advisor rather than a cold call.” Said Ariel Trybuch, CEO & Co-Founder of LenderSquared.
The partnership introduces capabilities that cut the hours spent gathering and reconciling data by hand, freeing relationship managers and credit officers to focus on what matters: the relationship and the decision. By incorporating local market intelligence alongside broader benchmarks, lenders gain context into how businesses perform within comparable regions, insights that have traditionally been difficult to access.
“Commercial lending has always been relationship-driven, but the strongest relationships are backed by having access to the right data”. Said Elizabeth Caplan, SVP & Chief Transformation Officer of COCC. “LenderSquared gives our clients the opportunity to walk into every conversation more prepared, and to make credit decisions with greater clarity.”
Together, COCC and LenderSquared are helping community financial institutions bring greater precision, speed and insight to commercial lending, empowering them to compete more effectively and continuing to service their local markets with confidence.
