A few things to know.
Who is the Trust Circle for?
Credit unions and banks looking for a clearer next step with AI, including business leaders, operations teams, technology teams, and risk and compliance teams. We also welcome interest from advisors and builders who could contribute to the circle.
What if I don't know what kind of help I need?
That's a good reason to start a conversation. Choose “Not sure yet” in the request form and tell us a little about what you're considering. Crittora will review your request and look for a relevant connection.
Does Crittora handle my contract with a partner?
No. Crittora facilitates introductions. You and the introduced partner agree directly on services, pricing, contracts, and delivery. An introduction is not a guarantee of an engagement or its outcome.
Who is in the circle?
Our first confirmed partners are bridgeAIvisory, led by Brooke Anderson Tompkins, and Brody | Gapp LLP. Visit their websites directly to explore their work, or ask Crittora for a personal introduction. The circle will grow as additional partners confirm participation.
How does the 10% preferred pricing work?
bridgeAIvisory has committed to the 10% preferred pricing benefit for Crittora introductions; eligible offerings and terms are being finalized. Brody | Gapp LLP has confirmed participation in the circle, but has not confirmed a discount. Pricing is agreed and applied directly by each participating partner. Contact the partner for confirmed terms before relying on an offer.
