NEW YORK - March 23, 2026 - PRLog -- Leading global AI-powered credit underwriting platform provider Scienaptic AI announced today that R-G Federal Credit Union (R-G FCU) has implemented its AI-based decisioning platform and is now live.

Chartered in 1957, R-G Federal Credit Union was originally founded to serve the military and civilian personnel of Richards-Gebaur Air Force Base.

With a mission to empower every member's journey toward financial success, R-G Federal Credit Union remains deeply committed to strengthening the communities it serves.
"We want to be the most trusted and responsive financial partner in our community, growing through innovation," said Steve Deere, President and CEO of R-G Federal Credit Union. "Going live with Scienaptic AI is a significant step in fulfilling that vision. The platform is enabling us to process loan applications with greater speed and consistency, enhancing our operations without compromising prudent risk management. We are now better equipped to empower every member's journey toward financial success through real and genuine service."

With deep roots in the military community and a commitment to service, R-G FCU is now leveraging the power of AI to make smarter, fairer credit decisions. This deployment is not just about automation; it's about empowering the credit union to serve its diverse membership across Missouri with greater agility and confidence."
