What is Kita?

Kita is an AI-powered underwriting platform that automates the entire lending workflow for emerging markets and underserved communities. It reads borrowers' financial documents, detects fraud, and drafts credit memos so lending teams can decide in minutes instead of days. The platform combines three AI layers: document intelligence (Kita Capture), a conversational intake agent (AI Credit Officer), and a decision engine (AI Underwriter) that handles messy local formats like GCash screenshots, M-Pesa statements, and handwritten records.

Frequently Asked Questions about Kita

Can Kita extract income from GCash, M-Pesa, and other mobile money screenshots?

Yes. Kita's document intelligence layer is built to read mobile money statements like GCash and M-Pesa, along with local formats such as comprobantes and handwritten payslips. It performs line-level extraction and cross-document reconciliation, so you get structured income data from formats that traditional OCR cannot handle reliably.

What languages does Kita support for borrower intake and document processing?

Kita supports English, Spanish, Bahasa, Tagalog, and 12 additional languages, with conversational intake via WhatsApp, SMS, and email. The multilingual support covers both the borrower-facing intake agent and the document processing pipeline.

How does Kita detect fraud in submitted documents?

Kita checks for forgery, tampering, and impersonation across submitted documents using its vision-language extraction and validation logic. Every flagged finding is traceable to the source document, so your credit officers can review the evidence before making a decision.

Does Kita make the final lending decision, or does a human underwriter review it?

The credit officer retains all decision authority. Kita drafts the credit memo with automated cash-flow modeling against your policy thresholds and cites every claim to its source document, but humans make the approve or decline call.
