Fintech apps are a necessary component of service provision

From AI to blockchain and everything in between, the degree of innovation in financial software and services is remarkable. This wave of innovation can be overwhelming, and adoption hangs on intuitive and accessible apps.

To ensure the adoption of their services, B2B service providers for finance must publish fintech apps to front their wares. However, producing fintech apps comes with a whole set of complexities that take many firms by surprise.

Starting fintech apps from scratch can be too slow and costly

Running an in-house software development team can be tricky. In particular, firms that need to develop in-house fintech apps, come across these challenges:

• Costly range of required skills: A modern Dev operation also requires Agile PMs, UX, and DevOps professionals, raising upfront costs sharply.
• Time to market can be slow: Building everything from scratch extends the time to market dramatically, leaving the firm vulnerable to competition.
• Crippling technical debt: New development teams are prone to technical pitfalls, resulting in an app that is insecure, inflexible, or hard to maintain.

Apollonian deploys an in-house valuations portal with our fintech app toolkit

In partnership with Invessed, Apollonian created a unique front-end for the Insight Platform, designed to be the single point of entry for their valuation projects and client operations. Among others, the portal:

• Facilitates data collection: Custom workflow, permissions structure, and intuitive web forms to streamline the data collection process.
• Integrates the Analytics engine: Secure, bi-directional connection to the proprietary engine, the core that calculates valuations and risk.
• Delivers interactive reporting: Reports combine quantitative data visualisations, qualitative observations, and a roadmap for further improvements.
