CRE portfolio intelligence

See the connections beyond the loan file.

From one lender tape, Fintek Sentinel is designed to trace documented links among borrower LLCs, named principals, and properties across the U.S. It reviews dated distress evidence and delivers a confidential Distress Signal Summary for lender judgment. Every review identifies its actual source and jurisdiction coverage. No numeric risk score or automated lending decision.

Built for confidential reviews by portfolio surveillance, credit risk, and special assets teams.

The operating problem

Important signals live outside the loan system.

Sentinel is designed to connect a lender’s known portfolio data with dated external evidence while preserving the distinction between an observed record and a credit conclusion.

01 / Resolve

Follow the real entity structure

With a borrower LLC and principal name as anchors, the workflow investigates documented links to other entities and properties. Ambiguous matches stay unresolved.

02 / Observe

Keep evidence point in time

Event, availability, and observation dates are kept distinct so later information does not contaminate an earlier review.

03 / Explain

Show why a signal appears

Each observation carries source, match, timing, and limitation context for human review—not a black-box conclusion.

Operating model

One lender input. A governed evidence workflow behind it.

The lender supplies its tape through a secure channel. Fintek administrators configure and operate the resolution and evidence workflow; optional supplemental records are never required from the lender.

  1. 01

    Ingest

    Secure lender tape

    CSV or XLSX is integrity-checked, isolated to the engagement, and retained under the configured administrative policy.

  2. 02

    Resolve

    Entities and relationships

    Sentinel normalizes identities and follows documented borrower, principal, guarantor, and property connections.

  3. 03

    Review

    Configured evidence sources

    Dated records from sources configured for the engagement are evaluated against resolved entities and the selected cutoff.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Confidential signal summary

    High-level observations and evidence context are presented for lender review, without a numeric score or recommended action.

Built for national investigation; coverage is explicit. The property-link workflow expands as licensed and public sources are configured and validated. “No qualifying evidence observed” means none was found within the disclosed sources, jurisdictions, and cutoff—not that distress is absent.

Output behavior

A summary built to be reviewed, not obeyed.

Use the illustrative controls to see how the same reporting structure handles connected, unresolved, and absent evidence. Every name and record below is fictional.

Evidence as ofSeptember 08, 2026

Dated evidence connected

A county record we found describes a lien filing involving an entity we resolved as linked to the borrower. The record is dated within the review cutoff. Its current status and relevance to the loan require lender review.

Source
DEMO-REC-014 · fictional county filing extract
Entity connection
Related entity resolved from the tape; matching identifiers support the connection.
Timing
Record dated September 2, 2026; within the September 8 cutoff.
Limits
The filing alone does not establish payment default, current distress, or a required lending action.

Human decision boundary. The lender independently determines whether and how to investigate or act.

Privacy and control architecture

Designed for sensitive lender data.

Lender tapes can contain real personal information. A controlled transfer path is established only after scope and terms are agreed; the public Contact form is not a tape-transfer channel. Each review limits access to its authorized workflow.

Restricted administration

Cloudflare Access and named staff memberships protect the admin console and API. Marketing pages cannot initiate a portfolio review.

Isolated engagements

Separate lender tenancy is part of the institutional deployment model. Confidential files use run-specific storage paths and signed links limited to one review and purpose.

Upload integrity

Size-limited streaming uploads use declared SHA-256 digests and are removed if verification fails.

Auditable operations

Material transfer, processing, delivery, and deletion events are recorded without placing tape contents in application audit logs.

Thirty-day retention

Confidential run content is scheduled for automatic deletion under the standard 30-day policy. An administrator can delete it sooner; limited audit records are retained separately.

Confidential delivery

The lender receives an encrypted workbook through an expiring, run-scoped link. Its passcode is sent in a separate email to the registered institution address.

Institutional pilot

Test signal usefulness against outcomes you already know.

A historical backtest can assess whether dated evidence would have surfaced before recorded trouble, how often observations were relevant, and where coverage or matching needs improvement.

Start a pilot discussion
  1. 01

    Define the cohort and cutoff

    Agree on the historical portfolio segment, known outcomes, dates, and success measures before data moves.

  2. 02

    Establish the secure channel

    Set engagement terms and issue the controlled upload path for the lender tape.

  3. 03

    Run a blinded comparison

    Keep later outcomes separate while Sentinel resolves entities and evaluates only evidence available at each cutoff.

  4. 04

    Review precision and lead time

    Examine relevant signals, false positives, misses, lead time, and source limitations with the lender team.

Questions from risk teams

Clear boundaries before data moves.

What does a lender need to provide?

Only its lender tape is required. Fintek administrators operate entity resolution and the configured evidence-source workflow. Supplemental records may be added by an administrator when useful, but they are not a lender requirement.

Does Sentinel produce a risk score?

No. The deliverable is a high-level, confidential Distress Signal Summary containing point-in-time observations and their evidence context. It does not assign a numeric risk score, predict default, rank borrowers, or recommend a lending action.

Does “no signal” mean a borrower is healthy?

No. It means no qualifying evidence was observed within the sources, jurisdictions, identity matches, and evidence cutoff disclosed for that review. Coverage limitations remain visible.

Who can use the admin console?

The admin console is restricted to authorized Fintek staff through Cloudflare Access. A lender can receive a one-time upload link for its tape without receiving console access.

What information is sent to record sources?

Configured source queries may use a name or property address needed to find a record. We do not send the lender tape or confidential summary as a file to those sources, publish them, or use the public Contact form to receive them. The sources and coverage are defined for each engagement. Read our Privacy notice.

How long is confidential run content kept?

The standard policy schedules deletion after 30 days, with a daily sweep and an administrator option to delete sooner. Limited account and audit records follow separate retention rules. Read the retention details.

How is a pilot evaluated?

Measures should be agreed in advance and can include evidence relevance, false-positive rate, missed known events, entity-match quality, and lead time to recorded outcomes. Production claims should follow a real, lender-approved backtest.
