Enhance your insights by combining structured public data with your private data.

CRAi starts with an expansive set of public data sources, already combined and analyzed. Layer in your own data and workflows when you’re ready.

Public Baseline

Start with publicly available, comprehensive, analyzed data

  • Every public evaluation on record in one searchable index
  • Performance views across lending, service, investment, and community development
  • Peer sets, opportunities, and rating context drawn from more than 35 years of exams

Private Data

Update with your data to add trends and insights

  • Benchmarks run on your own data across lending, deposits, investments, and branches
  • Goals set against peer and market evidence or on your own terms
  • Progress measured against those goals on whatever schedule you choose

Your data is your data. It is used only for your analyses, it is never used to train models, and it sits in your own isolated instance under SOC 2 Type 2 controls. How do we protect your data?

Customization

Add custom attributes and workflows to answer deeper questions

  • New attributes added to your data and new views built around them
  • Strategic-plan measures tracked in the same views
  • Every view keeps its evidence trail

Coming soonDescribe the question and CRAi assembles the workflow: it identifies the data it needs, asks you for what only you have, and sources the rest from the market.

We analyzed 80,000+ CRA exam records across more than 35 years. Here’s what we found.

We took the public CRA record back to 1990 and joined it to component scores and bank financials. Across the findings, one pattern recurs: CRA outcomes are shaped not only by what a bank does, but by its size, its market, and how deliberately it directs and documents qualifying activity.

02 · Lower-income borrowers face the largest lending disparities in expensive urban markets, along the southern border, and in the farm valleys. The gaps are smallest across much of the Midwest.

Lending to lower-income borrowers vs. the share of lower-income families · every US county · 2024 mortgage originations

US county map of the gap between the share of families that are lower-income and the share of 2024 mortgages going to lower-income borrowers. Gaps run widest in expensive urban markets, along the southern border and through the farm valleys, and narrowest across much of the Midwest. Counties with fewer than 25 originations carry no value.

Nationally, 39% of American families are lower-income, but only about 25% of 2024 mortgage originations went to a lower-income borrower—a 14-point gap. In the median county, lending to lower-income borrowers runs about 12 percentage points below their share of local families.
