Lorikeet Revolutionizes AI-Driven Financial Services Support

Lorikeet, with financial backing from QED Investors, is pioneering the use of AI in financial services by developing voice agents that are capable not only of engaging in human-like conversation but also securely executing transactions and operations. The challenge in financial services is deploying AI systems that can be trusted by financial institutions and regulators, meeting rigorous standards for access, integration, and compliance. Lorikeet has tackled these issues through a flexible and permission-controlled platform that supports various deployment models, including virtual private cloud and bring-your-own-cloud options.
