Overview

Backbase built the AI-native Banking OS - the operating system that turns fragmented banking operations into a Unified Frontline. Customers, employees, and AI agents work as one across digital channels, front-office, and operations. The platform combines Digital Banking, which provides the customer-facing interface, with Agentic Banking, which carries requests through to resolution under bank-defined authority. Agentic Banking is designed to sit on top of a bank's existing systems, including non-Backbase installations, without requiring a rip-and-replace approach.

The company offers four solutions on the Banking OS: Digital Banking, Conversational Banking through chat and voice, Relationship Intelligence, and Customer Operations. It also offers a 90-day program to take a single AI use case from commitment to production launch.

120+ leading banks run on Backbase across Retail, SMB & Commercial, Private Banking, and Wealth Management. Backbase was founded in 2003 by Jouk Pleiter and is headquartered in Amsterdam, with teams across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, Africa and Latin America. Backbase reports more than 2,000 employees, about half of them in R&D, and 16 offices across five continents, including locations in Atlanta, London, Dubai, Riyadh, Hyderabad, Singapore, Toronto and Mexico City.
