Part 2 explores how fintech vendors can adapt to the AI agent paradigm by unbundling their domain expertise into lightweight, specialized agents that communicate in natural language rather than requiring users to navigate complex interfaces or APIs. This transformation creates multiple business advantages including new usage-based revenue streams, increased platform stickiness, regulatory compliance benefits, and stronger competitive positioning. The section demonstrates this concept through a detailed example of how various banking system vendors could deploy specialized agents that work together seamlessly, culminating in a 12-step timeline showing how a reimagined "6-Second View" could deliver comprehensive customer insights to tellers in under 4 seconds.

This four-part series examines the shift toward AI agents in banking through the lens of "6-Second View," a custom inquiry app written years ago by Co-Founder, Clay Turner, that once integrated multiple systems for a retail bank to serve all frontline employees. Part 1 traces the evolution of banking technology from the fragmented systems of the early 2000s, through API-first SaaS solutions of the 2010s, to today’s realization of AI and how it works. The remainder of the series explores how vendors can preserve their value while reimagining delivery, how employees can shift burdensome tasks to agents, and how customers benefit from AI-enhanced experiences.
