ArcOne BankOS™ Advances Enterprise Revenue Intelligence with Enhanced Agents, Data, and Governance

ArcOne BankOS™, the Intelligent Orchestration System actively deployed across Retail, Commercial, and Global Transaction banking, and extending into Capital Markets, Wealth, and Payments.The platform connects fragmented data across the bank via 60+ connectors spanning banking cores and enterprise systems, without requiring re-platforming of existing infrastructure.Extends the proven revenue intelligence offerings, ArcOne EPM with its AI Command Center, enhanced AI agents, new connectors, and a unified semantic layer.Three integrated multi-agentic products, Enrich360™, Experience360™, and Exceptions360™, deploying a rapidly growing library of 100+ AI agents across all banking domains.Built to ISO 42001 Responsible AI standards with audit-ready lineage supporting SOX, OCC, CFPB and the latest SR 26-2 model risk management requirements.

AUSTIN, Texas, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ArcOne AI today announced the extension of ArcOne BankOS™, its Vertical AI Orchestration System for revenue intelligence, into major banking domains that cover Retail, Commercial, Global Transaction Banking, Capital Markets, Wealth, and Payments. Already in production at Fortune 500 banks, built on the proven revenue intelligence offerings, the company is expanding its coverage, enhancing its agent capabilities, adding new connectors, and increasing semantic layer depth. This includes updating its governance and compliance framework to meet the requirements of the most complex banking environments.

ArcOne AI expands ArcOne BankOS™ revenue intelligence orchestration across major banking domains. Foundational to this orchestration system is Ocular AI™, a vertically integrated data and AI platform providing the trusted data, intelligence, and agent fabrics required for modern banking operations at enterprise scale.

The Infrastructure Gap Holding Banking AI Back

Despite significant investment in AI, estimated at $35 billion globally in 2023 and projected to nearly triple, most financial institutions have struggled to move beyond pilots and point solutions.

The reason is structural: AI agents require clean, governed, semantically consistent data to function reliably across complex banking environments. Large banks routinely operate five to fifteen core banking systems simultaneously, each with its own data model, field naming conventions, and integration requirements. Capital Markets and Global Transaction Banking environments add further complexity with proprietary data structures, real-time pricing feeds, and cross-border regulatory requirements. ArcOne BankOS™ eliminates that bottleneck and now does so across the full banking enterprise.

One Platform. Connected Intelligence. Across Three Layers.

ArcOne BankOS™ is powered by the Ocular AI™ platform which delivers three integrated fabrics addressing distinct layers of the banking intelligence stack.

The Data Fabric is mission critical. The Banking Domain Cartridge provides 60+ connectors spanning banking cores and enterprise systems and auto-maps 80%+ of fields across all major banking cores. It pre-populates with banking terminology, eliminating the need for manual domain configuration. What previously required months of data engineering work now takes days.

The Intelligence Fabric is the Agent factory to identify, train, deploy, govern, and monitor both ML and Language models, and configure them to develop and orchestrate AI Agents.  It provides an orchestration engine, TERRA™: Trigger, Evaluate, Research, Recommend, Act. TERRA™ coordinates a rapidly growing library of 100+ AI agents across banking domains.

The Agent Fabric is a rapidly growing AI Agent marketplace delivering measurable revenue outcomes. Enrich360™ handles pricing, product, and profit intelligence. Experience360™ covers customer experience and engagement. Exceptions360™ manages process and exception intelligence. LYZA™, the multi-modal command interface, connects banking professionals to the agent ecosystem through multi-modal channels including web, voice, text, video, document, IOT and edge inputs. All three are production applications deployed on top of existing infrastructure, with no core replacement required.

The three fabrics operate as an integrated stack. That integration is what makes the governance work, the intelligence reliable, and the deployment timeline realistic.

“Data without intelligence is noise. Intelligence without orchestration is a pilot. And orchestration without vertical expertise is a liability in a regulated industry. ArcOne BankOS™ brings all three together so enterprise banks can move from contract to measurable results and not another multi-million dollar proof of concept that never scales.”

— Akshay Sabhikhi, CEO, ArcOne AI

From Contract to Production in 4 to 6 Months

ArcOne BankOS™ is designed for enterprise deployment without enterprise-scale implementation complexity. Certified channel partners compress initial deployment to four to six months using a three-step activation model: Connect, Map, and Activate. The platform is modular and cloud-agnostic, requiring no large data engineering team and no disruption to existing operations. Once the foundation is live, new revenue streams launch in weeks rather than another multi-year transformation cycle.

Governance Built for the Regulatory Reality of Banking

ArcOne BankOS™ is built to ISO 42001 Responsible AI standards and provides the governed data layer required to support SOX, OCC, CFPB, and the latest SR 26-2 model risk management requirements. Audit-ready lineage and explainability are built into the platform architecture. The Ocular AI™ Catalog includes built-in Bias & Fairness, Toxicity, Hallucination, and Lineage monitoring, ensuring every AI decision is traceable and defensible from data to models to agents to business processes with complete auditability and traceability.

Enterprise-Scale Results: Already in Production

ArcOne’s platform has been in production across a range of financial institutions. For example,  

A regional bank running end-to-end Account Analysis and Deal Management on ArcOne EPM with full audit and compliance capabilities for two years.A multinational financial services company operating in 196 countries where ArcOne powers real-time dynamic pricing intelligence across all product lines.A global bank using Exceptions360™ to intelligently automate the quote-to-cash process to eliminate revenue leakage, with a focus on reconciling fees with billing across complex multi-entity structures.

Availability

ArcOne BankOS™ is in production and available to existing and new clients. Enrich360™, Experience360™, and Exceptions360™ are available as standalone products with Ocular AI™ foundation on top of any banking core or revenue management system. ArcOne AI has active Fortune 500 client engagements and strategic partnerships with leading Fintechs, Banking core providers, and systems integrators. Organizations interested in evaluating ArcOne BankOS™ are invited to contact the company to schedule a custom demonstration.

About ArcOne AI ArcOne AI helps highly regulated industries that include financial institutions, energy and utilities with revenue intelligence to enhance profits and reduce operational inefficiencies. The company is led by a team of experts responsible for building some of the most successful revenue management and AI platforms. ArcOne AI is headquartered in Austin, Texas, with offices in the US, UK, India and supported by global partnerships. Learn more at arcone.com

Mantle Migrates Its Super Portal to Chainlink CCIP, Bringing Institutional-Grade Security to Every Cross-Chain Transfer of the $2.5B+ MNT Token

Published

on

By

The migration to Chainlink CCIP strengthens the security of MNT as it moves across chains, laying the foundation for Mantle’s strategy for powering the future of tokenized finance at scale.

DUBAI, UAE, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mantle, the premier distribution layer connecting traditional finance and on-chain liquidity, today announced the migration of its Mantle Super Portal, co-developed with Bybit, from LayerZero to Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). This upgrade brings the industry’s highest level of cross-chain security to MNT, the token underpinning Mantle’s $2.5B+ ecosystem, marking a significant step forward in hardening the infrastructure that moves value across the Mantle ecosystem.

With billions lost to cross-chain exploits, bridging infrastructure has emerged as one of the most security-sensitive surfaces in the industry, concentrating both the largest volume of value in transit and the greatest exposure to risk. Following a review of its cross-chain infrastructure to bolster higher ecosystem security, Mantle selected Chainlink CCIP as the solution that met its rigorous security requirements. Built on a defense-in-depth architecture, CCIP features:

Robust cross-chain security: CCIP establishes a strong security floor for all cross-chain transfers through the default use of Chainlink’s robust Decentralized Oracle Network (DON) infrastructure.Decentralized node infrastructure: Every CCIP bridge lane is secured by 16 independent, high-quality, and security-reviewed node operators.Advanced risk management: CCIP features native rate limits that act as circuit breakers to limit contagion during extreme scenarios.Institutional security standards: CCIP is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant, meeting the strict enterprise-grade security standards required by major institutions.

As the value moving through the Super Portal accelerates, the security standard required to secure rises with it. Mantle’s migration to Chainlink CCIP reflects a calculated decision to meet that standard, driven by security and risk considerations, and to align with a broader industry shift towards secure-by-default infrastructure.

The Super Portal will be temporarily suspended during the migration, tentatively scheduled for 9 to 15 July 2026. As with any infrastructure migration of this scale, the window may extend slightly beyond this estimate to ensure a complete and secure transition. No action is required from users: existing MNT on Ethereum and Solana is unaffected, as are all interactions involving MNT on Byreal and Bybit, and transfers will resume automatically once the migration is complete.

A Security Upgrade for the Mantle Super Portal

The Mantle Super Portal, developed in collaboration with Bybit, is Mantle’s cross-chain hub for moving MNT between ecosystems. It currently connects MNT between Ethereum and Solana, with further routes planned as Mantle expands.

With this migration, MNT has deprecated LayerZero OFT and adopted the Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard, with all transfers through the Super Portal now secured by Chainlink CCIP. Under the CCT standard, all transfer controls are configured by Mantle, providing full autonomy and ownership over its smart contracts and cross-chain token pool.

Beyond strengthening security, the migration establishes the foundation for MNT to interoperate across a wider range of chains, venues, and markets as Mantle grows, complemented by Bybit’s support for MNT deposits and withdrawals on Solana.

Chainlink CCIP is widely adopted across the blockchain industry to secure cross-chain transfers of high-value assets, as it is built on the same battle-tested Chainlink infrastructure that secures approximately 70% of DeFi and has enabled $32+ trillion in onchain value.

“As tokenized financial assets move from concept to scale, the infrastructure that carries them across chains cannot be an afterthought,” said Emily Bao, Key Advisor at Mantle. “Deprecating our legacy bridging solution and migrating the Super Portal to Chainlink CCIP brings every MNT cross-chain transfer in line with the security standards of the world’s largest financial institutions. It is the level of assurance the next phase of on-chain finance demands.”

“We’re continuing to see an industry trend of leading protocols upgrading their cross-chain infrastructure to meet the requirements of institutional adoption. Mantle’s migration to Chainlink CCIP reflects the growing recognition that secure-by-default infrastructure is critical for any cross-chain deployment to succeed at scale.” Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer, Chainlink Labs

Building the Secure Foundation for Tokenized Finance

As tokenized equities, money market funds, and other regulated assets increasingly move on-chain, the infrastructure carrying them is being held to the standards of traditional finance. Securing the Super Portal with Chainlink CCIP reinforces Mantle’s position as the distribution layer connecting traditional finance and on-chain liquidity, where security of this caliber is a precondition and builds toward Mantle and Bybit’s continued commitment to grow MNT through further integrations, opportunities, and use cases.

Mantle’s vision of a full-stack RWA layer, built on bedrock liquidity, aligns directly with Chainlink’s evolution into an all-in-one oracle platform powering real-world asset tokenization, collateral mobility, and composability across chains. That alignment extends into the infrastructure itself as Chainlink secures the flow of value, Mantle secures the rails it moves on.

As the ecosystem grows, Mantle will continue to deploy the most secure infrastructure available across its stack, matching the protection of every asset to the value it carries.

About Mantle

Mantle positions itself as the premier distribution layer and gateway for institutions and TradFi to connect with on-chain liquidity and access real-world assets, powering how real-world finance flows. With over $2B+ in community-owned assets, Mantle combines credibility, liquidity and scalability with institutional-grade infrastructure to support large-scale adoption. The ecosystem is anchored by $MNT within Bybit, and built out through core ecosystem projects like mETH, fBTC, MI4 and more. This is complemented by Mantle’s partnerships with leading issuers and protocols such as Ethena USDe, Ondo USDY, and OP-Succinct.
