It was in 2014 when Srikanth Nadhamuni and Gautam Bandhopadhyay forged a partnership to establish Trustt as a provider of digital banking solutions. It is a mobile-first, cloudnative, and AI-powered Digital Banking Platform having four major offerings- Digital Lending, Digital Distribution, Digital Identity, and Trustt GPT.

Calling its API-enabled powerful banking stack revolutionary in the Banking industry, Srikanth Nadhamuni shares "This platform of products and services is available as a SaaS service, allowing the bank to focus on banking and financial products while we focus on ensuring a tech platform that delivers 100% digital straight-through processing, that lowers operational cost, increases customer delight, and grows AUM, deposits, payments, and hence the bottom line for the Bank or NBFC."

"By offering a SaaS solution, Trustt enables financial institutions to focus on their core competencies while delivering a seamless, cost-effective, and customer-centric banking experience. This transformative approach is set to redefine the banking landscape, offering a glimpse of what the future of banking could look like," adds Gautam Bandhopadhyay.
