NEW YORK - eTradeWire -- Scienaptic AI, a leading provider of AI-powered credit decisioning, announced today that R-G Federal Credit Union has selected LendSmart Auto, an AI-powered auto loan pricing engine, to transform how it prices vehicle loans for its members. The platform moves R-G FCU away from traditional rate-sheet pricing, which assigns the same rate to all loans within a risk tier, to a deal-level model that prices each loan based on the individual borrower, vehicle collateral, and real-time market conditions.

LendSmart Auto integrates vehicle data at the VIN level, enabling granular analysis of depreciation curves, regional resale demand, auction recovery projections, and loan-to-value exposure for every deal. The engine also incorporates R-G FCU's own target return on assets, factoring in deal and operations costs, to ensure that optimized pricing stays within the credit union's established financial parameters.

"Every member who comes to us for a vehicle loan deserves a rate that reflects their own situation, not just the tier they fall into," said Steve Deere, President and CEO of R-G Federal Credit Union. "LendSmart Auto lets us price each loan more precisely, based on the member's own profile and the vehicle they're buying, with greater transparency in how that rate is set. That means better value for our members and a stronger credit union to serve them for years to come."
