AI-powered support for Athena Home Loans

Built around the moments that matter most in mortgage servicing — application status and doc classification, rate reviews, offset and redraw, discharge, and NCCP-safe hardship handovers. The agent doesn't just answer — it takes action, scoped product-by-product, guardrailed for regulated finance.

Try the Athena AI agent

Loaded with a synthetic dataset covering an in-flight application (Sarah Nguyen, APP-4823) and a settled customer (Michael Chen, HL-2001, Straight Up variable at 6.14%).

Click any prompt to copy it, then paste into chat.

Try the demo personas: michael.chen@example.com (existing Straight Up variable, 6.14%, 18 months on rate) or reference APP-4823 (Sarah's in-progress application, missing a bank statement). The agent gracefully steers back to these if you throw made-up IDs at it.
Call 0468 090 974

Voice channel — 0468 090 974 (live now)

Same agent, same workflows, same brand voice — on a real Sydney line. Call the number to try any of the six inbound scenarios — application status, doc submission, rate check, offset, discharge, hardship. The agent asks one question at a time on voice, spells back names and emails before any write, and hands off to Athena Assist on any hardship signal.

Where Athena's AI can lean in first

Six topic-matched workflows plus two outbound scenarios. Each one asks less, does more, and hands off cleanly when a specialist should own it.

Application status + document classification

Reads status, names the specific missing doc, and accepts a payslip / bank statement / ID / rates notice / certificate of currency inline. Classifies, validates, and routes to the credit officer with a same-business-day pickup.

Rate check + repricing request

Quotes the current rate + time on rate, then lodges a repricing request without predicting the outcome. Specialist calls back within 2 business days with what Athena can offer — no invented percentages.

Offset, redraw, next payment

Answers offset balance, redraw available, next direct debit, features on the loan. Explains fixed-vs-variable mechanics honestly (offset is paused during fixed periods) and never invents fees.

Discharge / payout request

Confirms the loan, reason (sale / refinance / payout), and target settlement date, quotes back before firing the write. Lodges the discharge request and lets the specialist confirm the exact payout — never a made-up figure.

Hardship — Athena Assist warm handover

Any signal of financial distress (job loss, missed payment, separation, medical costs) — the agent does not advise. It acknowledges once with dignity, collects name + best number + a one-line summary, and hands off to Athena Assist with priority.

NCCP-safe by design

STEER guardrails on every reply: no personal financial advice, no approval predictions, no invented rates or Athena Assist criteria. Crisis signals get Lifeline 13 11 14 and a human, never mortgage mechanics. Off-product asks steer back to Athena.

Outbound — where Athena calls first

Two live outbound scenarios you can trigger to your own mobile in our session. Same agent, same guardrails, calling out instead of picking up.

Sarah — missing docs on an in-flight app Doc chase
Trigger: application DOCS_PENDING > 48h, no upload received
Athena calls Sarah about her Straight Up variable application (APP-4823), which is stalled on a 3-month bank statement. Confirms it's her, offers to email a secure upload link there and then, or bounce her back to the credit officer's thread. Pauses cleanly if she's having second thoughts.

Michael — proactive repricing offer Retention
Trigger: customer on same variable rate 18+ months
Athena calls Michael on HL-2001 (Straight Up variable, 6.14%, 18 months on rate) before he considers refinancing. Offers a rate review, lodges the request end-to-end if he says yes, and warmly steps aside if he'd rather discharge — routing the ticket to the discharge team instead.

How we built this

Grounded in Athena's real product taxonomy and the two use cases the founders flagged as highest-leverage.

1

Read your real site

Scraped athena.com.au's FAQ pages, hardship-assist, eligibility, and target-market so answers are grounded in Athena's own policy language — not invented.

2

Built the workflows

Six inbound topic workflows plus two outbound scenarios. Each one asks one question at a time on voice, quotes back before any write, and hands off cleanly for hardship.

3

Mocked your systems

Five mock tools stand in for the Salesforce / Q2 / Front / Vonage stack — application lookup, doc submit, loan account read, repricing lodge, discharge lodge. In production these are your real APIs.

4

Guardrailed and shipped

NCCP-safe guardrails (no advice, no approval predictions, no invented rates), a crisis check with Lifeline 13 11 14, and a hardship-first rule that overrides every other flow.

What's next

A path from demo to production, phased so risk stays bounded at each step.

1

Train on your real data

Feed the agent Athena's real KB, real workflow SOPs, real hardship policies. Point the mock tools at your Salesforce, Q2, and Front instances. Same shape, just real values.

2

Phase 1: read-only

Application status, rate lookups, offset/redraw answers — no writes. Deflects the 9-to-5 volume that doesn't need a person. Builds trust before writes are enabled.

3

Phase 2: write-back

Enable doc submission, repricing lodgement, discharge lodgement — one at a time, each behind a specialist review at first, then autonomous once the audit trail proves clean.

4

Scale across channels

Same brain across chat, voice, SMS, WhatsApp. Same NCCP guardrails. Same warm handover to Athena Assist when a specialist should own it. 24/7 first-ring answers, without adding headcount.

Built for regulated AU consumer credit

AU data residency

Multi-region deployments — Australian customer data can stay in AU. NCCP + Privacy Act aligned by default.

Guardrails per product

Straight Up, Liberate, Power Up, Athena Select — each product's boundaries are scoped separately, and hardship overrides every other flow.

Warm handover, always

Escalation isn't a dead end. Hardship, complaints, advice-seeking, and complex broker cases route to a specialist with the customer's context intact.

Fintechs like Self, Flex, Carmoola

Regulated consumer credit is where Lorikeet does its best work. Carmoola took end-to-end resolution from 30% to 60% on auto lending.

Front, Salesforce, Vonage integration path

Lorikeet fits alongside your current stack — inbound Front tickets, Salesforce Service Cloud CRM, Vonage voice — without a rip-and-replace.

Aligned with your AWS move

As Athena shifts foundations to AWS Bedrock, Lorikeet plugs into the same ecosystem — clean interfaces, no vendor lock-in on the model layer.
