Assist Bank Account Opening with Policy-Guided Document Checks.
Bank Account Opening Copilot is bank account opening automation that guides staff through each account, grounded in the bank's own policies.
Video transcript
Meet Arjun, a branch officer at a bank in India. A customer wants a savings account, and Arjun hunts the policy manual for the checklist. A 2020 Signicat survey of four thousand European consumers found that sixty-three percent had abandoned a digital bank application. One missing proof means a second visit, and a frustrated customer. Then Arjun opens Account Opening Copilot by aQb Solutions, an AI assistant that guides bank staff through account opening, grounded in the bank's own policies. It reads the checklist from the policy library, so every requirement comes from policy. Arjun records the customer's email, mobile number, occupation and income. The customer's proofs go in, including a photograph, and stay on the device until the account is created. AI reads the documents and fills in the form. Arjun checks every value against the originals, and adds anything it could not find. The account is created, with a masked account number. Every opened account appears in the register. Account Opening Copilot follows the policy. Arjun makes the call. The account shown is a sample record. Policy first. Fewer return visits. Accounts opened right.
Bank Account Opening Copilot by aQb Solutions (shown in the film as Account Opening Copilot) is an AI assistant for bank branch staff that guides each account opening from the bank's own policy checklist and reads KYC documents for staff to verify. Open every account by the book: it reads the checklist from your policy library, extracts details from KYC documents, fills in the form and lets staff verify every value before the account is created.
Impact you can measure
Illustrative targets, to be confirmed in a pilot on your own data. "Account created" means a record in the copilot's own register; creating it in a core banking system is a separate integration.

What it does
Policy-grounded checklist
Reads the account-opening checklist from the policy library you upload, so every requirement comes from policy and is linked to its source.
Guided account opening
Walks bank staff through each step, records the customer email, mobile number, occupation and income, and explains what is still required.
AI KYC document extraction
Reads PAN, identity and address proofs and the photograph, and fills in the form. Customer files stay on the device until the account is created.
Document checks and exceptions
Flags missing or wrong documents and mismatched values before the account is opened, and routes exceptions for review.
Policy questions answered
A policy chatbot answers staff questions from the approved policy documents, with citations to the source page.
Staff review and account register
Staff check every value against the originals before the account is created with a masked account number. Every opened account appears in the register.
Key Questions Answered
01 / 04
Which account types and jurisdictions are supported?
Staff-assisted opening of retail accounts, such as savings accounts, for branch and operations teams. Checklists and document types come from your own policy library, so requirements follow your bank's policy and jurisdiction. It is not a customer-facing, end-to-end digital account-opening journey.
02 / 04
How does it handle regulation and identity verification?
The checklist is read from your approved policy library, which is where your regulatory requirements live, and every requirement links to its source page. Extraction reads and cross-checks what the documents say. It does not verify a customer's identity against an official source or certify compliance, which stay with your bank's own process.
03 / 04
What data does it handle?
KYC documents such as identity and address proofs and a photograph, and the details extracted from them. Customer files stay on the device until the account is created, and hosting, retention and logs are agreed during implementation.
04 / 04
When do staff approve, and what does 'account created' mean?
Staff check every value against the originals and approve before the account is created. In the product shown, that creates a record with a masked account number in its own register. Creating the account in a core-banking system is a separate integration, scoped with you.
