Finalytics.ai Wins Best of Show at FinovateSpring 2026 — For the Second Year Running
We’re proud to share that Finalytics.ai, an OWF portfolio company, has been named a Best of Show winner at FinovateSpring 2026 in San Diego. This marks the second consecutive year Finalytics.ai has earned Finovate’s top audience-voted honor - a distinction that underscores the platform’s continued momentum and the real impact it’s delivering for community financial institutions.
What Finalytics.ai Does
Finalytics.ai is an AI-powered digital engagement platform built specifically for banks and credit unions. The platform uses behavioral, transactional, and third-party data to deliver personalized, one-to-one digital experiences in real time, helping financial institutions deepen member and customer relationships, improve conversion rates, and drive growth without adding headcount.
In a landscape where consumers increasingly expect the kind of personalized experience they get from major tech platforms, Finalytics.ai gives community institutions the tools to compete on that level while staying true to the relationship-driven model that sets them apart.
Why This Matters
FinovateSpring is one of the premier stages for fintech innovation, drawing over 1,200 senior-level attendees from the nation’s largest banks and financial institutions. Best of Show winners are selected by the audience itself: industry practitioners voting on what they believe will move the needle. Winning back-to-back signals that Finalytics.ai isn’t just demonstrating potential; it’s delivering proven, evolving capability that resonates with the people closest to implementation decisions.
Finalytics.ai was recognized alongside four other 2026 winners: Crebit Pay, Cobalt, Clockout, and Zengines.
The OWF Perspective
At One Washington Financial, we invest in early-stage companies that are building real solutions for credit unions and their members. Finalytics.ai represents exactly the kind of innovation we look for: technology that closes the capability gap between community institutions and their largest competitors, delivered by a team that understands the mission-driven context of the credit union movement.
A back-to-back Best of Show win validates what we’ve seen firsthand: that Craig McLaughlin and the Finalytics.ai team are building something that the industry not only needs, but is ready to adopt at scale.
Congratulations to the entire Finalytics.ai team. We’re excited to see what comes next.
