Movius, a global enabler in cloud-based secure mobile communications, has announced that its conversational artificial intelligence (Conversational AI) platform, Curie™, will power spocto’s debt resolution and risk mitigation platform in India and the MENA region.

The Silicon Valley-based Movius has signed an agreement with spocto, the world’s leading debt support and risk mitigation platform powered by AI and ML. spocto aims to shape the future of collections by helping banks and NBFC’s achieve better platform integration to improve customer experience in the most compliant manner.

This agreement between spocto and Movius was made possible by challenging the norms and pushing boundaries to drive customer value, according to Ananth Siva, CEO, Movius. “We are very excited about this partnership with the world’s leading debt support and risk mitigation platform, spocto. The results thus far, even in very complex languages and workflows, have been remarkable,” he added.

“Driving business outcomes at scale through AI requires a robust platform that can transform the debt collection industry’s experience through conversational intelligence, unified interaction, and integration across a multitude of languages and channels. We are thrilled to deploy Curie, which will certainly enhance spocto’s developer experience and remove hurdles of AI adoption,” explained Satish Medapati, Head of AI and Data Solutions at Movius.

The partnership gains significance in the light of recent regulatory guidelines in India under which the Reserve Bank of India has tightened the norms for loans recovery process to prevent banks and other lenders from using strong-arm tactics or other unfair recovery practices for collecting debt. It is a matter of time before technology plays a greater role in the debt collection process, whereby debt collection practices will no longer humiliate the person from whom the debt is to be collected and make it less intrusive than what it is now. spocto’s technology, riding on Movius’s conversational AI platform, helps ensure that the debt collection process is robust, personalized, and innovative, as the debt collection process becomes ethical.
