Introducing AI Research Agents

Credit Pulse's AI research agents automate background checks on trade credit applicants — reviews, permits, ownership, UCC filings, and more in minutes.

Research Agents

Traditional credit monitoring relies on manual research and periodic reviews. By the time you discover a problem, it's often too late. Research Agents change this by continuously monitoring your portfolio, automatically investigating every account, and surfacing critical insights in real-time.

Think of Research Agents as your tireless research team, working 24/7 to keep you informed about every important change across your customers.

How It Works

1. Pick Your Agents

Choose which specialized agents to deploy based on your risk priorities. Each agent is trained to research a specific area: reputational risk, supply chain stability, PE ownership changes, and more.

  • Select from a library of pre-trained research agents, each focused on a specific risk category.
  • Toggle agents on or off based on what matters most to your business.
  • Deploy agents across your entire portfolio or target specific accounts.

2. Get Instant Results

Agents work around the clock, scanning news sources, financial filings, social media, legal databases, and proprietary data sources. When they find something, you see it immediately with clear risk scoring and detailed findings.

  • Each agent returns a risk score and summary of key findings.
  • Expand any result to see detailed evidence: lawsuits, press coverage, financial changes, and more.
  • Agents flag high-priority issues that require immediate attention.

3. Ask Scout to Interpret

Scout, your AI credit copilot, analyzes all the research findings and gives you clear, actionable recommendations. No need to piece together the story yourself — Scout does it for you.

  • Scout synthesizes findings across all agents into a single narrative.
  • Get specific recommendations: tighten terms, request more info, or approve with confidence.
  • Ask follow-up questions to dig deeper into any finding.

Research that scales. Insights that matter.

Stop relying on manual research and periodic reviews. Research Agents give your credit team continuous, AI-powered monitoring across your entire portfolio.

  • Deploy specialized agents for every risk category.
  • Get instant alerts when agents discover critical findings.
  • Ask Scout to interpret results and recommend next steps.
  • Monitor thousands of accounts with zero manual effort.
