Company mission
Aire's mission is to make consumer finance more inclusive by building a fairer consumer credit ecosystem, powered by first-party data.
Our take
The number of loan options for consumers has exploded in recent years, making credit assessment super important for companies offering these loans and giving Aire a big market to grow into. Its solution focuses on an approach: The consumer is the best and deepest source of real data about themselves.
Traditionally, lenders had a more 'computer says no' approach when it came to making loan decisions. With the wealth of data now available on people, credit assessment can be made smarter. Aire's main product steps in to engage with an applicant on a lender’s website when the existing decision engine is unable to reach a full decision, enabling the consumer to supply relevant financial data about their circumstances.
In 2022, Aire announced a new partnership with GDS Link, a global leader in credit risk management. The company will be using Aire's Pulse income insights offering, to add value to the solutions that deliver to their customers.
