How We Built a Configurable Embedded Finance Platform That Goes Live With a New Partner Every Week

A leading institutional financial institution came to us with a single mandate: stop building embedded B2B lending point-to-point. Build the platform once, plug any partner in, and run it as infrastructure. Fourteen weeks later, they were live across multiple B2B platforms, managing $40M+ in loan AUM.

01 · Context

The Brief

The client is an institutional financial institution that had partnered with several B2B platforms to offer embedded financing, credit lines, BNPL, and invoice-financing, to the end customers of those platforms.

The problem: every new B2B partner required a 6–8 week custom integration. A custom KYC flow. A custom underwriting logic. A custom payments rail. A custom loan management view. The team had built four versions of the same platform, none of them reusable.

They needed something nobody else had built: a single, configurable embedded finance platform that could onboard a new B2B partner in days, not months, and run the full loan lifecycle for that partner end to end.

02 · Decision

Why They Chose Solprime

Three reasons.

Reason 01

Platform-first thinking, not project-first.

Most agencies they spoke to scoped this as five separate products and a 9-month timeline. We scoped it as one configurable platform with five surfaces, and a 14-week timeline.

Reason 02

They needed AI-native document handling from day one.

KYC documents, financial statements, GST returns, bureau reports, every B2B partner sends them in a different format. We architected the AI layer in week one, not as a feature.

Reason 03

They needed someone who would stay.

This wasn’t a build-and-leave platform, it was infrastructure that would run their lending business for years. Our Build & Run model meant we’d operate it under SLA after launch, not hand it off and disappear.

03 · Delivery

What We Built

A six-layer configurable embedded finance platform.

Layer 01 · Checkout

Embedded Checkout SDK

A drop-in JavaScript SDK that any B2B platform can embed in 1–2 days. Handles borrower onboarding, KYC capture, credit limit display, and disbursement flow, all branded to the partner, all running on the client’s infrastructure.

Layer 02 · Console

Partner Credit Management Console

A multi-tenant console where each B2B platform partner can see their own borrower book, set credit policies, view delinquency, and manage exceptions, without seeing any other partner’s data.

Layer 03 · Engine

Configurable Credit + Workflow Engine

The heart of the platform. A rules engine where the credit team can configure underwriting policies, document requirements, approval workflows, and exception paths per partner, no code changes, no engineering bottleneck. Configuration changes go live the same day.

Layer 04 · AI

AI-Native Underwriting Layer

LLM-powered extraction of KYC docs, financial statements, and bureau reports, using Claude for structured extraction and OpenAI for narrative summarization. The credit team sees a one-page underwriting brief instead of a 40-page document pile.

Layer 05 · LMS

Internal Loan Management System

A full LMS, disbursements, repayments, restructuring, write-offs, with a double-entry ledger and audit trail. Sales, ops, and credit teams operate from a single source of truth.

Layer 06 · Accounting

Loan Accounting + Delinquency Management

Automated accounting entries for every loan event, automated bucket-wise delinquency reporting, and a configurable collections workflow with SLA tracking per partner.

Plus end-to-end integrations: KYC providers, payment providers (collections + disbursements), credit bureaus, and the client’s accounting stack.

04 · Technology

The Stack

Frontend (consoles + SDK)

Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind

Embedded SDK architecture

iframe + postMessage, white-labeled per partner

Backend

Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis

Workflow / rules engine

Temporal-style orchestration, JSON-configurable rules

AI layer

Claude (document extraction), OpenAI (underwriting narrative)

Integrations

KYC providers, payment gateways, credit bureaus, accounting systems

Ledger

PostgreSQL with double-entry accounting model

Infra

AWS (EKS, RDS, S3, CloudFront, WAF), SOC2-aligned logging

05 · Execution

How the 14 Weeks Looked

Fourteen weeks, six phases. Full visibility at every gate, the client’s credit and ops teams could see working software at the end of every phase, not slides.

Weeks 1–2

Scope & architecture

Configurability model, multi-tenancy design, partner data isolation, SOW signed

Weeks 3–5

Core platform

Credit engine, workflow engine, double-entry ledger, KYC + payment integrations

Weeks 6–8

Partner-facing surfaces

Embedded SDK, partner credit console, white-label theming

Weeks 9–11

Internal LMS + accounting

Disbursements, repayments, restructuring, double-entry accounting

Weeks 12–13

Delinquency + collections

Bucket-wise delinquency, configurable collections workflows, SLA tracking

Week 14

Production launch

First two B2B partners live; provisioning runbook documented

06 · Results

The Outcomes

Numbers from the first months of live operation. Every figure below reflects real loan activity on the production platform.

3/week

Capacity to onboard up to 3 new B2B partners per week, down from 6–8 weeks per partner pre-platform. Provisioning a new B2B platform partner is now a runbook, not a project.

80% faster

End-to-end loan processing, from application to disbursement, versus the previous workflow. The configurable credit engine and AI underwriting layer eliminated manual document review at scale.

$40M+

Loan AUM managed on the platform within the first months of operation. The infrastructure scaled without architectural changes, adding a new partner adds a new dataset, not a new codebase.

Zero code

Fully configurable, credit policies, document requirements, and workflows changeable by the credit team without engineering involvement. Configuration changes go live the same day.

Zero errors

Zero manual reconciliation errors, full double-entry ledger with automated audit trail. Every loan event generates a corresponding accounting entry automatically.

07 · Implications

Why This Matters

Embedded finance is the most ambitious fintech bet most B2B platforms make, and the one most institutional lenders fail to execute well, because every partner gets rebuilt from scratch.

This platform inverted that model. The client now sells “embedded finance as infrastructure” to B2B platforms, and competes on go-live speed and configurability, not just credit pricing.

That’s the difference between being a lender and being lending infrastructure.
