Direct credit bureau integrations and a microservices platform, launched 2 weeks early.



Open Lending helps 450 active lenders offer near-prime and subprime auto loans and has facilitated $27.9B+ in originations. Its next step was faster decisions and direct control of its data.
Moving to microservices meant rewriting UI components and adopting containerization.
Faster underwriting helps dealers close more deals.
An outside credit data provider created single points of failure.
Vehicle valuation lookups added time and error risk.
Manual testing limited how fast the team could ship.
Open Lending wanted a product platform that could scale fast with microservices and containerization, eliminate unreliable third-party dependencies through direct integration with all three major credit bureaus, and accelerate loan decisioning.
Praxent rebuilt the core decisioning engine, migrated the platform to microservices and connected credit bureau, valuation and risk data directly.
Praxent validated workflows with finance managers and met 100% of sprint commitments throughout the engagement.
Decisions return in under a second, third-party dependencies are gone, and the core engine runs with 90%+ test coverage. The platform launched 2 weeks early.
Every sprint commitment was met.
Working together, we were able to help this automotive lending fintech overcome the challenges associated with potential staff attrition while quickly expanding its microservices architecture. We are proud to have supported them as they empower banks and credit unions to approach auto loans and better serve their communities more strategically.
