) , the open source leader in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine 
learning, today announced that underwrite.ai ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=2649509-1&h=154435758&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.underwrite.ai%2F&a=underwrite.ai 
), a global provider of artificial intelligence-based credit underwriting 
models, is leveraging the automatic machine learning platform H2O Driverless AI 
( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=2649509-1&h=1435970295&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.h2o.ai%2Fproducts%2Fh2o-driverless-ai%2F&a=H2O+Driverless+AI 
) to power their fully automated and compliant process for quickly and 
effectively determining credit lending risk. By using H2O Driverless AI with 
expansive data sets, underwrite.ai builds and trains models that return an 
automated credit decision in milliseconds, radically outperforming traditional 
scorecards in both consumer and small business lending.

"underwrite.ai is using automated machine learning to transform how credit is 
assessed and is improving outcomes for lenders and borrowers alike," said Sri 
Ambati, CEO and founder, H2O.ai. "We are excited that with Driverless AI, 
underwrite.ai is not only using more factors and producing fast accurate scores 
but also relying on explainable machine learning they can trust.  H2O.ai's 
innovation is leading the democratization of credit for people around the 
world."

"Using thousands of data points instead of the handful used by traditional 
credit scoring services, underwrite.ai generates a much more reliable lending 
risk profile for creditors to use when evaluating a credit or loan 
application," explains Marc Stein, Founder and CEO, underwrite.ai. "By using 
Driverless AI to build and deploy our nonlinear models, we can provide lenders 
a fully automated process that delivers a highly reliable credit decision with 
a fully compliant explanation for the decision in less than half a millisecond. 
H2O and Driverless AI play an integral role in our platform, speeding up the 
development and deployment of models exponentially."

Improving Financial Outcomes
By building models unlike anything used by traditional credit scoring services, 
lenders can build a broader and more secure portfolio. Underwrite.ai applies 
advances in AI derived from genomics and particle physics to provide lenders 
with nonlinear, dynamic models of credit risk which drastically improve payment 
default rates. The use of nonlinear algorithmic modeling enables underwrite.ai 
to effectively determine lending risk in situations with limited or 
non-existent credit bureau utilization in North America and throughout the 
world.

Democratizing Credit with AI
H2O Driverless AI empowers data scientists, such as those at underwrite.ai, to 
work on projects faster and more efficiently through automatic machine learning 
and state-of-the-art computing power. With Driverless AI, tasks that typically 
take months, are completed in just minutes or hours. This is accomplished by 
delivering automatic feature engineering, model validation, model tuning, model 
selection and deployment, machine learning interpretability, time-series, NLP 
and automatic pipeline generation for model scoring. H2O Driverless AI's 
versatility makes it a powerful data science platform that easily addresses the 
needs of a variety of use cases for every enterprise in every industry. 

"There are so many challenges that H2O.ai's technology can help to solve, and 
the more people who dig in and use it, the better the world gets," Stein said.
