THE PROBLEM

Lack of verification produces risk

A lender’s security lies in title to the assets they finance; it’s the only thing that separates the lender from being an unsecured creditor.

Lack of adequate and effective asset verification processes produces risk.

Proof of existence

Without inspections both at payout and during the finance term, the lender has no proof the underlying asset exists, is in the possession and control of the borrower, and has not subsequently been sold out of trust.

Sources of untruth

Borrowers, finance intermediaries, and supplying dealers (“interested parties”) are all in conflict with the security interest of the lender. Even in a small way, they each have an incentive to misrepresent the truth in order to secure the finance facility.

Condition of asset

Without actually seeing the condition of individual assets in a lender’s portfolio, underwriting, risk, and residual value decisions remain based on assumptions, not facts.

Cost of inspection

Traditional asset inspections which require an inspector to physically attend the customer’s site involve high costs.

Time to inspection

Waiting for an inspector to be able to schedule and physically attend a customer’s site significantly slows the speed of decision-making.

Quality of data

In-person inspections at a customer’s site produce errors and incomplete information, leading to inconsistent quality of inspection data.

Customer impact

Legacy “in person” inspections are perceived by customers as intrusive. Customers expect to be able to run their business without interruption.

THE SOLUTION

How verifi empowers your portfolio

Lenders who implement robust asset verification programmes dramatically reduce risk across their entire portfolio.

By adopting the right inspection tools and protocols, lenders can efficiently gather precise, verifiable data at every stage of the finance lifecycle, empowering them to swiftly identify and manage potential risks.

That’s why verifi exists. Our single motivation is to serve and protect the interests of the lender.

How does verifi work?

Five steps to a better asset inspection flow

1
Initiate Inspection Request

The lender enters asset and customer details directly into verifi’s platform (or via API) and submits an inspection request.

2
Inspector Receives Inspection Request

The selected inspector (customer, finance intermediary, or dealer) receives a secure inspection link with clear instructions. No scheduling on-site visits or FaceTime walkarounds required. Inspection is completed at their convenience.

3
Inspection Performed

No app, no downloads required. Clicking the link opens a secure channel between the inspector’s mobile device and verifi’s platform. The inspector is guided through a straightforward process to confirm asset details and capture high-definition photos directly from the device’s camera. verifi’s built-in fraud prevention protocols prevent photo uploads from galleries or any external source and automatically log geo-location and timestamps throughout the inspection process.

4
Real-time AI Validation

verifi’s AI instantly analyses incoming data, validating photo authenticity, asset location, and inspector responses. Automated red and amber flags highlight potential anomalies for immediate attention in the report sent to the lender.

5
Instant Reporting

Once complete, a comprehensive inspection report - including photos, collected data, automated flags, dynamic geo-location reporting, and validation results - is instantly available on verifi’s platform or delivered via API.

Subscribers are immediately notified by email and can securely access the report, enabling quick and confident decision-making.

Asset Lifecycle

What you measure improves…
You get what you inspect,
not what you expect.

verifi’s inspection processes enable lenders to cost-effectively collect detailed, verifiable, asset-specific data across significantly more assets than previously possible – helping to identify and mitigate risk effectively at every stage of the finance lifecycle.

New Business

Broker-ready, capturefi integrates seamlessly with their processes ensuring quicker decisioning and faster payouts.

In-Life

Annual inspections can easily be scheduled across the in-life stage of the entire asset portfolio.

Customer Complaints

Visibility of the asset condition enables accurate, fact-based decisioning by the lender early in the complaints process.

Collections & Recoveries

verifi enables immediate evidence of the asset location and condition at the first sign of distress or default.

verifi’s revolutionary self-certifi inspection platform gives lenders the confidence to allow borrowers, brokers, and supplying dealers to undertake their own asset inspections to support new lending and in-life portfolio management. 

Sending an inspector to site is no longer required. 

Speed, quality, and customer journey are enhanced.

Cost and friction are reduced.

Asset inspections can be completed up to 1000× faster and up to 90% cheaper compared with traditional inspections which require an inspector to physically attend a customer or supplying dealer site.

The net result is a more rapid decisioning process and inspections are completed at a fraction of the cost. Inspections can be completed within minutes from the request being created and sent.

Using verifi, the lender obtains a much higher and more consistent quality of information about its assets. For example, all imagery obtained is high-definition, giving a more accurate record of the condition of the asset being inspected.

Our processes are much less intrusive to the finance customer, broker, or supplying dealer. There is no-one turning up to site. verifi’s platform enables the finance customer, broker, or supplying dealer to conduct their own asset inspection on a mobile device at a time most convenient to them.

More rapid decisioning at all stages of asset finance cycle (NBO, In-Life, Collections & Recoveries, End of Term) based on more accurate asset-specific inspection data collected and stored on verifi’s secure platform.

verifi creates the capability for lenders to inspect vastly more assets than previously possible.

We are confident that lenders will experience an improved customer journey. Our processes are inherently less intrusive to customers, enable the lender to make much quicker decisions (e.g. faster processing of new originations resulting in faster payouts), and can lead to much improved broker journeys (e.g. no wasted time/cost going to site, more rapid document approval stage, resulting in faster payout).

Our broker-ready solution allows brokers to manage their own customer relationships at NBO stage by creating their own inspection requests which they send to their customers.

self-certifi inspections allow the borrower, broker, or supplying dealer to securely perform their own asset inspection via verifi’s proprietary CRM using an encrypted communication session between their mobile device and verifi’s platform.

Fraud risks are mitigated by using GPS and time-stamped metadata and imagery. There is no possibility for images to be uploaded or supplied from the device’s gallery or a third-party source. Photos can only be taken during the inspection and are uploaded in real-time from the inspector’s mobile device to verifi’s platform.

Once the inspection is complete, the lender is notified instantly via email with a secure link to the inspection report.

verifi understands the risks associated with different asset types and has created bespoke inspections for all asset types commonly comprised within lenders’ portfolios.
