# We work the arrears queue. You set the treatment.

We contact customers in early arrears, learn their circumstances, and administer the arrangements you approve, under your contact policies and treatment rules.

CollectionsOS · Arrears and Collections Operations, as a line of five stages. Identify: an AI model reads, classifies, extracts or drafts. Contact: deterministic code applies your approved rules. Understand: an AI agent works the case within the limits you approve. Arrange: your team decides. Monitor: an AI agent works the case within the limits you approve.

The problem

## Every account in arrears needs its own next step.

A broken promise to pay, a hardship call, and a disputed balance land in one queue, each needing action that day.

Who it serves Heads of collections, arrears, customer assistance, and lending operations

What the service includes

## We do the work within the limits of your policy.

Your service schedule lists the tasks your operation includes.

01

### Days-past-due (DPD) segmentation

We segment accounts by DPD bucket, product, risk, and your treatment rules, so each enters the right queue on time.

02

### Right-party contact

Within your rules on timing, frequency, and consent, we contact the right party, verify identity first, and record every attempt.

03

### Promises to pay and payment plans

We record each promise to pay and administer payment plans within the parameters you delegate; the rest goes to your team.

04

### Vulnerability, hardship, and disputes

With your indicators, we spot vulnerability, hardship, and disputes early, pause treatment as your policy requires, and refer each case to your team.

05

### Complaints

We log complaints raised during treatment and route each to your complaints function with its history.

06

### Pre-charge-off handoff

Before charge-off, we assemble the contact, arrangement, and hardship history and hand each account to your recovery route: in-house, agency, or legal.

Questions

## What buyers ask before they scope.

Does CollectionsOS start legal action on its own?

No. Legal action follows your authority model and the process you agree.

How are vulnerable customers handled?

Your team takes the conversation. We apply the referral procedures you agree and document every action.

Do you charge purely on recoveries?

No. You pay for the work we do on each account. Any performance component must protect fair treatment and never reward pressure on customers.
