A leading fintech lender needed AI capabilities across their operations, but not another tool only engineers could use. And not another vendor contract that would cost more every time they scaled. In just 9 weeks of build, Kablamo delivered a cloud-native agentic AI platform on open-source foundations: governed, secure, and extensible by the client's own staff via a no-code drag-and-drop interface. The first use case: automatic call centre summarization, live in production. Every subsequent automation their team builds costs them nothing extra to run.

Technologies Used
AWS (multi-service), Langflow (open-source, MIT license), LiteLLM (LLM gateway / cost management), Open WebUI (employee-facing AI chat), Langfuse (LLM observability and tracing), OAuth2 Proxy (federated access), Zoho CRM, Zoho Desk, Amazon Connect (Contact Lens), Python, Kubernetes, GitOps (pull request-based workflow promotion pipeline).
A regulated fintech lender had the ambition to adopt AI across their operations, but faced a set of real constraints:
Fragmented data: Customer interactions lived across Zoho CRM, Zoho Desk, Amazon Connect, and an internal credit/loan admin system — with no unified layer for AI workflows to act on. Limited engineering capacity: Non-technical staff in the process improvement team needed to be able to build and deploy workflows themselves. Commercial risk: Per-execution pricing on common AI tools compounds unpredictably as usage scales. Vendor lock-in and model restrictions were additional concerns. Governance wasn't optional: As a regulated fintech, the client needed auditability, security controls, federated access, and a controlled promotion path from development to production. "Move fast" and "move safely" had to coexist.
In a two week Discovery, Kablamo ran six cross-functional workshops with the client's Operations, Engineering & Data, Process Improvement, and Sales teams.
We assessed all existing systems, APIs, and integration points, reviewed the existing security and governance posture, and evaluated the AI platform market against the client's specific constraints. From that, we identified ~40 potential AI use cases and produced a full technical architecture recommendation. Commercial all-in-one platforms were explicitly evaluated and rejected for: cost, vendor lock-in, model selection restrictions, data sovereignty concerns, and inflexibility. The open-source choice was the right technical answer, but it required Kablamo to do something that off-the-shelf products don't: build the governance layer properly. In the 9-week build phase, the platform was built on AWS, with Langflow at the core. Kablamo equipped the open-source AI platform with an enterprise-grade governance layer, which includes a secure GitOps promotion pipeline, federated access, and full LLM observability for monitoring cost and usage. This architecture also ensures security through audit logging and controlled integration patterns that prevent non-engineers from accidentally exposing sensitive data. The result was an agentic AI platform that has the speed and accessibility of a low-code tool, and the security posture of an enterprise system. Kablamo pre-built four reusable system integrations (Zoho CRM, Zoho Desk, Amazon Connect, Admin System) and a production ready automation use case - Call Support Reason and Summarization. This use case was deliberately chosen because it creates a strategic, low-risk data baseline on customer call reasons while immediately reducing manual agent effort. It also had a natural roadmap, where the same infrastructure unlocks call QA, live agent assist, and email triage - a clear path for the process team to continue to deliver ROI.
This is the speed story: a governed, enterprise-grade AI platform — live in production — in 9 weeks of build.
A strategic unlock to scale, enabling a true transformation to compete with AI-native entrants. A no-code/low-code platform so the process improvement team can build AI automations without engineering support. Under $10,000/year to run the platform (excl. LLM usage) - no per-execution fees, ever. Immediate ROI - 100% of contact centre calls automatically summarized and categorized from Day 1 of go-live.
