Summary
Live Oak Bank and Huntington National Bank are partnering with Casca to bring generative AI into SBA 7(a) lending for loans under $350,000. Live Oak is utilizing Live Oak Express to handle these smaller loans more quickly, using Casca’s solution to automate underwriting and reduce processing time. Huntington will also adopt Casca’s software in 2026, using it in various stages of the loan origination process — from assisting with applications to using a chatbot to support borrowers around the clock.
