AI Customer Service for Banks and Fintechs in Australia

AI customer service for banks and fintechs has to satisfy a regulator as well as a customer. LYRIQ's AgentConnect handles onboarding, account servicing and routine enquiries, with approval gates on anything consequential and an execution trace behind every action.

Customers expect clarity. Regulators expect proof. AgentConnect connects to the systems you already run and gives you both.

Faster service. Stronger security. Smarter operations.

The Second Brain

Your Compliance Team Already Knows What's Approved

It's spread across policy docs and institutional memory. The Second Brain gives agents that same approved context.

  • Approved language
  • Escalation thresholds
  • Disclosure requirements
  • Accurate responses without a manual compliance review on every message.
The AgentConnect Brain: company knowledge as linked notes, including Approvals & Governance and Compliance & Deadlines, that agents read for context.

The pressure

Customer Trust Depends on Communication

Banks and fintech teams operate under constant scrutiny.

  • Customers expect immediate answers

  • Regulators expect accuracy

  • Legacy systems and siloed channels make both difficult

LYRIQ automates secure, compliant communication across voice, chat, and email. Every interaction is recorded, time-stamped, and aligned with governance standards.

Every message must be accurate. LYRIQ makes accuracy automatic.

FAQ

AI in banking operations, answered

What does APRA CPS 234 expect when we use a third-party platform?

CPS 234 requires an APRA-regulated entity to maintain information security capability commensurate with the threat, including where information assets are managed by a third party. The obligation stays with the regulated entity: using a vendor does not move it. In practice that means you need to be able to evidence the controls, know where data sits, and show what access occurred. Those are questions to put to any platform in writing, including this one.

Can AI handle conversations that carry regulatory weight?

Some of them, and the boundary matters more than the capability. Answering a balance query, explaining a fee, or collecting information for an application is procedural and suits automation. Anything that constitutes advice, a hardship determination, or a commitment on the bank's behalf is a consequential action and sits behind human approval by design.

How do we evidence what a customer was told?

Every interaction writes an execution trace: what the customer asked, what the agent read, what it said and what it escalated. For a complaint or a regulator request, that is a record rather than a reconstruction. This is the same mechanism described on the trust and compliance page and it is not a separate product.

Where does customer data go?

Data is isolated per account and encrypted in transit and at rest, and AgentConnect is model-agnostic so no single AI provider holds standing access across engagements. Retention and residency are set per deployment, which for an APRA-regulated entity is a conversation to have before contracting.

What happens when an agent is unsure?

It escalates rather than guesses, and it hands over the full context so the person is not restarting the conversation. In a regulated setting a confident wrong answer is far more expensive than an escalation, which is why the confidence threshold is a configuration decision rather than a fixed setting.
