Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
Envisso's legacy infrastructure was slowing the company down: siloed data, limited visibility into lineage and manual processes made it harder to deliver instant risk intelligence. Envisso needed a platform that could ingest and analyze vast amounts of merchant, transaction and dispute data while keeping governance and security intact.
The solution
Databricks helped Envisso unify data across their client roster using Unity Catalog, ensuring secure and centralized access control. With Lakeflow Jobs, they gained the ability to ingest and enrich merchant data from 30-plus payment providers and serve actionable insights into potential risks. ai_query() integration allowed teams to embed LLMs directly into production SQL workflows, and Delta Sharing and Delta Lake help Envisso share live data securely across partners, clouds and regions. They also built a custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely connect AI agents directly to their data.
Reported business value
Reducing onboarding from weeks to a single day is helping merchants begin making sales faster. Envisso avoided doubling their engineering team, maintaining a lean ~15-person organization while supporting a growing global customer base.

TBC Bank, the largest banking group in the Caucasus region, built a Lakehouse on Databricks and adopted Lakebase and Databricks Apps to move from on-premises SQL Server instances and month-long reporting cycles to self-service analytics and AI-driven applications, including a web-based AI chatbot and AutoML-based credit risk scoring. Credit risk model deployment fell from 14 weeks to two days, and more than 600 users regularly query governed data through Genie.

ING Bank is running multiple AI projects across operations, governed centrally under its COO. Live/early-production efforts include a retail chatbot, AI-driven identification of hidden affluent clients for marketing, AI-assisted transaction monitoring that helps investigators close standard alerts faster and focus on risk, and a customer due diligence (KYC) redesign that uses existing public and behavioural data to auto-answer most of a roughly 100-question review, cutting due diligence from days or weeks to seconds. ING is also developing agentic AI to handle mortgage applications end-to-end (credit checks, data collection) starting in 2026. ING's COO said AI introduced to an operations process yields a 25% productivity gain, with freed capacity redeployed to growth and more complex work, and its CTO described 'conservatively aggressive' governance restricting AI exploration to five areas under COO control.
