Fias AI Announcements

For credit unions themselves, the partnership is a path to powerful AI-enabled software for internal operations. For members, it is a path to the same tools, offered through an institution they already trust. “What drew us to Fias is that they are not adding AI onto software built for a previous era,” said David Araujo, President-CEO, Service Credit Union. “They are building with AI from the ground up, giving us the ability to bring members capabilities that would not have been possible a year ago. Fias empowers credit union employees, regardless of role or prior training, to explore new ideas and engage with technology in a low-risk, non-production environment. By lowering barriers to innovation, the platform can help create a culture of creativity and problem-solving that ultimately benefits our members.” Fias and Service Ventures are exploring ways to expand the platform, including bespoke software versions, AI-driven advertising optimization, automated platform development, agentic AI solutions, and additional blockchain-based products for the financial services industry. “Service Ventures invests early in teams that can move the credit union industry, and Fias is one of them,” said Brian Regan, General Partner of Service Ventures. “Its founders bring three decades of AI and blockchain work in highly regulated environments, and their platform lets subject matter experts build enterprise-ready solutions themselves — displacing millions in software spend and driving efficiency across teams. We are excited to partner with Fias and bring this to credit unions everywhere.” Development work under the partnership begins immediately, with initial credit union applications expected to be piloted with Service Credit Union ahead of broader availability to the credit union industry.
