Automation of Repetitive Tasks with Machine Learning: Use Cases

If you’re considering machine learning services for finance to automate the repetitive tasks in your organisation, you’re making the right decision—ML can do wonders when it comes to automation and boosting productivity. To show you how powerful it is, we prepared several examples of this technology put into practice. Take a look at them below.

1. Automated Customer Support

The first use case is already quite common—you can use ML (and LLMs) to teach your banking chatbots and automate (partially) your customer service. How does it work?

Many of your customer support tickets are quite repetitive and simple to solve—they are a waste of time for your tellers and customer support agents, who could work on more complex cases instead. With ML, you can embrace automation and take those repetitive tasks off your staff; all you have to do is feed the model with relevant information, deploy your chatbot and tune it for high performance & accuracy..

Naturally, you’ll need to ask the users to select their ticket type first, so that the system can decide whether the user should talk to a chatbot or a human agent. Nevertheless, this way you can save hours of your customer service time and put it to a much better use.

2. Compliance, eKYC and Anti-Fraud Protection

Another example of repetitive task automation possible with AI involves your anti-fraud measures. Here, you feed the ML model with historical data to teach it what are the patterns indicating fraud or money laundering. Then, you deploy such a model to analyse your clients’ transactions.

As a result, you don’t need experts overlooking all the transactions and user operations manually; instead, your team can focus on the transactions and clients flagged by the system—situations in which there is a true risk of wrongdoing. The same goes for client authentication in eKYC processes.

3. Document Processing

Isn’t it a waste of time that your documentation specialists spend hours just inputting data from unstructured documents into the system? Well, this no longer has to be a problem. With the help of ML and other technologies (e.g., OCR), you can design a system that will automatically scan unstructured documents and extract information from them.

4. Improving Existing Systems

You may also use machine learning to improve current repetitive task automation. This is perfectly illustrated in one of our case studies: Retail banking superchargerd with AI – improving transaction classification.

The said bank used a rule-based customer segmentation module which could unsuccessfully categorise up to 50% of customers. To battle that, we (among others) developed an ML model and improvements to the way the data is collected. The result? 92% of customer transactions were correctly qualified via the automated system.

The Takeaway

As you can see, there are many ways how you can improve the automation of repetitive tasks in your organisation using machine learning. The above examples are just an essence—there are many more opportunities that you can open using ML, so don’t be afraid to test this technology.
