The problem

Billing disputes are the #1 card complaint theme and accelerating. ~33% of resolved card complaints get monetary or non-monetary relief - a hard ROI signal currently buried in unstructured narratives.

The data-product gap

Raw CFPB data splits across two `product` labels (a taxonomy change), uses shifting issue enums, has messy company names, and only ~53% of complaints carry consented free text. The 16M-row database is ~80% credit-reporting noise - no stable, de-noised, card-scoped, narrative-enriched product exists.

The solution - on the platform

  1. 01

    Ingest the CFPB API daily delta, filtered to product ∈ {Credit card, Credit card or prepaid card}.

  2. 02

    Bronze→Silver: unify the taxonomy, normalize company→Chase, spam/bulk-filter.

  3. 03

    Gold: LLM-enriched narratives (theme / severity / root-cause / preventability) on the consented ~53%, joined to internal dispute/chargeback + CSAT.

  4. 04

    GenAI on the curated product (Genie-style): 'show the top emerging themes this week.'

  5. 05

    Governed by contract + entitlements: PII scrubbed; a vulnerable-population tags lens.

Caveat to print

2025 complaint volume doubled to ~6.6M (credit-repair / AI bulk filings) - the product must de-noise before any theme is trusted. CFPB aggregation live-verified 2026-06-26.
