Wegofin is rewriting the financial management rules with AI-powered banking

Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionised and reshaped the financial industry, ushering in improved decision making, better fraud detection and risk management, nuanced credit scoring systems, and personalised offers and experiences for customers. A 2021 McKinsey report titled ‘Building the AI Bank of the Future’ shared that AI’s potential for value creation in the financial services sector is one of the largest across industries, and could unlock $1 trillion of incremental value for banks, annually. 

While AI is disrupting traditional banking in India, there remain barriers to its adoption. Cautious and conservative mindsets have held banks back from exploring the full potential of AI, creating barriers to innovation and inclusivity. 

Faced with issues of complex legacy systems, regulatory tangles, inadequate reskilling and more, entrepreneurs like Prabhu Kumar were determined to revolutionise the way businesses handle their banking and financial operations. This was the genesis of Wegofin, a company created to help businesses grow with innovative fintech solutions that simplify banking processes, payroll management, and more.  

Today, Wegofin’s latest AI-powered offering brings banking and financial solutions right to business owners’ fingertips, offering a seamless and customised experience.

How it started

Telangana-based Wegofin was founded in 2023. Prabhu Kumar, an innovator in the digital payment space, with 18 years of experience in strategy and leadership roles, was frustrated with his personal experiences with traditional business banking. While managing his own ventures, he was often stymied by inefficient and complex banking services. He began to envision a single user-friendly platform that seamlessly integrated all banking functions and put together a team of experts to realise this vision. 

Wegofin is powered by a simple mission: pioneering innovative solutions that make seamless and smooth business finance management a reality. The company researched and recognised the various pain points faced by different sectors. By leveraging these insights, the team built a platform to cater to the unique requirements of both large and small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). 

In a competitive space like financial services, Wegofin’s platform stands out from its competitors by taking a comprehensive and customisable approach to finance. 

It offers a digital banking account, where users can be swiftly onboarded. Currently, users can access features such as GST filing, compliant invoicing, payments, bookkeeping, complete accounting and tax management, Application Programming Interface (API) banking, payroll, and much more. 

Democratising and digitising banking

It is dedicated to harnessing powerful and advanced technology, such as AI, to deliver personalised banking experiences to a wider audience.
