Financial Services on Autopilot
Finance AI automation handles KYC collection, transaction alerts, portfolio summaries and compliance flags on WhatsApp — with audit trails your auditors will actually trust.
What Is Finance AI Automation?
Finance AI automation is a set of WhatsApp-first agents and n8n workflows that run your repetitive finance operations without tickets or spreadsheets. The agent collects KYC documents, verifies IDs, sends transaction alerts in 2–4 seconds, generates portfolio summaries, and flags compliance exceptions — all while writing a timestamped audit trail. MetroHyp builds it with the WhatsApp Business API, n8n for orchestration, and banking API connectors so it plugs into Paystack, Flutterwave, your core banking system, and your CRM without replacing anything.
For banks, fintechs, cooperatives and lenders in Lagos, Abuja and beyond, this cuts KYC time from 3 days to under 20 minutes and drops missed alerts by 90%+. A typical finance AI automation flow looks like this: customer submits ID via WhatsApp → agent extracts fields with OCR → validates against rules → stores in CRM/sheets → notifies compliance → returns a summary to the customer. You get fewer errors, faster onboarding, and a log every regulator can verify. We run on encrypted channels, redacted logs, and read-only API keys.

What Finance AI Automation Covers
Six production-ready modules. Start with one, add the rest as volume grows. Each module logs every step for compliance.
KYC Collection
Collects ID, proof of address and selfie via WhatsApp. OCR extracts name, DOB and ID number; agent flags blurry or mismatched docs. Completion rate hits 78–85% vs 40% on web forms.
Transaction Alerts
Real-time WhatsApp pushes for deposits, withdrawals and suspicious activity. Webhook to message in 2–4 seconds, with retry and delivery receipt. No app install needed.
Portfolio Summaries
Daily/weekly holdings, PnL and fee breakdowns delivered where clients read them. Pulls from core ledger, formats for WhatsApp, and archives PDF for audit.
Compliance Checks
Screens against rules, sanctions lists and internal blocklists. Auto-flags exceptions and routes to compliance with evidence bundle. Keeps 12-month searchable logs.
Fraud & Risk Flags
Detects velocity spikes, duplicate IDs and geo mismatches. Pauses high-risk actions for human approval via WhatsApp quick-reply. Cuts manual review by 60%.
WhatsApp Onboarding
Guides customers step-by-step in English, Pidgin or French. Answers FAQs 24/7, books officer calls, and hands off to human when confidence is low.

Explore all integrations or lead qualification for intake logic.
Compliance & Audit by Design
Every action creates an audit entry: who, what, when, source IP/channel and result. Retention 12 months, exportable CSV/PDF. High-risk steps require human approval via WhatsApp button before execution.
- NDPR/CBN-aware: consent logs, data minimization, retention caps
- Role-based access — agents never get withdraw permissions
- Cost clarity: $10–$30/mo hosting + Meta API per conversation
