The leading AI debt collection software

The real story of AI in collections
Not all AI is created equal. Some platforms slap on “smart” features after the fact, hoping a flash of intelligence will disguise an obsolete core. But true transformation starts so much deeper than that.
With C&R Software's AI debt collection software, intelligence isn’t an afterthought. It’s the foundation, hardwired into every layer.
Why AI native?
Bolting on AI isn't sufficient
Imagine you’re in the market for a car. Would you rather drive a next generation vehicle or try to retrofit a 1990s sedan to include those same capabilities?
Sure, you can connect a GPS display to the cigarette lighter, and you can put a Bluetooth cassette into the CD player to connect to your phone. But that outdated car is never going to be as safe, responsive, or future ready as one designed with those features in mind.
The same holds true for AI in enterprise software. Many vendors “bolt on” AI capabilities to outdated platforms, resulting in fragile, inflexible tools that can’t keep pace with the speed of innovation.
That’s why it’s so important to find a system that’s truly AI native. These solutions are designed and engineered with AI woven into the fabric at every level.

The impact is obvious from the moment the representative asks for more information.

The result?
AI agents operate like they've got 10-12 years' experience day one because the large language model is helping them along, telling them what to do.

Agentic AI for collections
Ready to go hands-off?
A swarm of specialized agents
Giving one AI agent a giant, catch all job creates risk. By splitting responsibilities among a swarm of specialized bots, each becomes a master of its domain.
Consider how it might work in collections.
One bot pulls the customer’s full payment history, another parses current regulations, a third drafts an answer. The agents collaborate to resolve the issue instantly.
For customers, especially those in sensitive situations, the relief of not having to discuss personal finances with a human is real and measurable.
Guardrails for compliance and auditability
Agentic AI doesn’t operate in a vacuum. Each agent is tightly bound by business rules and decisioning technology. Think of them as the digital equivalent of traffic lights, speed limits, and crash barriers.
Every action passes through business logic aligned with up-to-date regulations and risk policies. For instance, an agent won't be able to offer a settlement plan outside of approved parameters or contact a customer before statutory waiting periods.
