BGL unveils AI powered BGL SmartDocs integration in CAS 360

By BGL Update, CAS 360No Comments

BGL is proud to announce the integration of its AI-powered document solution, BGL SmartDocs, into its company, trust and ID verification management software, CAS 360.

The integration assigns each entity in CAS 360 a unique email address. When documents are sent to this address, they are automatically processed and attached to the relevant document packs, ensuring a streamlined workflow and significantly reducing manual handling.

“This is another huge step for BGL and I am incredibly proud of our hard-working team who made this integration possible” said BGL’s Chief Executive Officer, Daniel Tramontana. “This new feature is set to enhance the user experience for our CAS 360 clients. I couldn’t be more excited to deliver this cutting-edge solution to minimise manual processes for our users.”

BGL SmartDocs saves time even when documents are not digitally signed. By leveraging AI, signed and unsigned documents can be identified and uploaded to CAS 360. Signed documents update the document status in CAS 360 and all documents are automatically attached to the existing document pack.

Warren Renden, Head of CAS 360 at BGL, added: “Integrating BGL SmartDocs into CAS 360 represents a significant leap forward in our commitment to improving efficiency and administration workflows for our clients. With this powerful new feature, our clients can utilise the BGL SmartDocs AI to automatically attach client-signed documents to the correct CAS 360 record simply by forwarding an email.”
