About

Johnson, who launched Indicina with CTO Jacob Ayokunle and chief data scientist Carlos del Carpio, said the platform has over 120 customers, including banks, non-bank lenders and fintechs. The company will launch a B2C offering in the coming weeks to diversify offerings and revenue streams. And as digital banking — which includes the provision of loans — began to take off in the country, she told TechCrunch that she saw an opportunity to start Indicina in 2019 to provide credit rails and financial analytics tools for these businesses. So lenders can use Indicina for credit scoring and bank sentiment analysis, getting access to ML-driven financial analytics and improved insights into consumers they currently don’t have and derisk unsecured loans.

AI made execution free. Knowing first is the whole game now.
