CovenantFlow

Solutions

One pipeline, from the credit agreement to the portfolio view.

Covenant monitoring breaks down into five workflows. Each one is a place where credit teams lose time today, and each one automates differently. These pages cover them individually.

The pipeline

Where each workflow sits

The stages run in sequence, and a weakness at any one of them caps the value of everything downstream. Accurate covenant testing is impossible if the covenant definition was captured wrong. A clean portfolio dashboard is meaningless if a third of the borrower financials never arrived.

  1. 1

    Covenant data extraction

    Credit agreements, amendments, and borrowing base agreements become structured covenant records with thresholds, defined terms, and testing periods intact.

  2. 2

    Borrower reporting automation

    The reporting calendar drives requests, reminders, and collection of financial statements, compliance certificates, and other deliverables.

  3. 3

    Covenant compliance automation

    Structured definitions plus financial data produce deterministic covenant calculations and a recorded compliance status.

  4. 4

    Portfolio monitoring

    Results roll up across the book so exceptions and concentrations of stress are visible in one place.

Each stage links to the page covering it in detail.

The end-to-end view of all four running together is on automated covenant monitoring.

Design principles

What we automate, and what we deliberately do not

Commercial credit is a regulated, judgment-heavy discipline. The design constraint throughout is that a person has to be able to explain any result to an examiner.

  • AI reads documents. Deterministic code does arithmetic. Extraction is a language problem and benefits from a model. Covenant calculation is not, and a result that cannot be reproduced exactly is not usable as evidence.
  • Extracted covenants are proposals until a human confirms them. Every extracted covenant carries a confidence score and passes through a review step before it becomes live.
  • The system of record stays the system of record. CovenantFlow does not try to own the loan. It writes covenant data back into the loan origination system so both surfaces agree. See integrations.
  • Every determination keeps its inputs. A compliance status stores the values it was computed from and the definition it was computed under, so it can be reproduced later.

For the conceptual background rather than the product view, start at the commercial lending knowledge center.
