Building an Enterprise-Grade, Context-Aware AI Assistant for Deluxe Corporation

DAX — a new AI-powered assistant designed to help partners make faster decisions and achieve
better outcomes for a global payments and data company

Built for Deluxe | Powered by Anthropic Claude | Delivered by Impetus

Impetus Technologies partnered with Deluxe to deliver DAX, an enterprise-grade, self-service GenAI assistant, powered by Anthropic’s Claude. DAX enables secure contextual knowledge retrieval, guided assistance, lead capturing, and responsible AI governance for customers, partners, developers, and internal stakeholders. A reusable GenAI SDK accelerated delivery, ensuring consistent, governed chatbot experiences across Deluxe’s lines of business (LOBs).

Challenges & Business Needs

  • High dependency on manual support and intervention. 
  • Delayed access to products, portfolio, and operational information. 
  • Fragmented chatbot implementations made self-service experiences inconsistent. 
  • Need for secure authentication, authorization, audit logging, monitoring, and AI guardrail implementation.

Anthropic-Powered Solution

  • DAX uses Claude as the core intelligence layer to understand queries and generate & summarize responses. 
  • A RAG pattern grounds answers in approved enterprise content rather than unmanaged responses. 
  • The GenAI SDK improves component reuse, accelerates chatbot delivery, and helps standardize experiences. 
  • Amazon Titan Embeddings power semantic retrieval across policies, FAQs, knowledge articles, and support content. 
  • Precise query reformulation: Converts ambiguous user requests into precise retrieval queries using conversation context. 
  • Trusted responses: Synthesizes retrieved knowledge into natural, business-friendly answers aligned with organizational guidelines. 
  • Intelligent summarization: Condenses long conversations, documents, and retrieved content into concise executive summaries. 

Responsible AI & Enterprise Controls

  • Grounding in approved content for trusted responses. 
  • Robust authentication and authorization controls to protect access to enterprise knowledge. 
  • Centralized logging enables auditability, compliance reviews, operational monitoring, and performance analysis. 
  • Governed deployment model supports customer, partner, developer, and employee use cases. 

The Deluxe context-aware AI assistant: End-to-end workflow

Business Outcomes

  • Reduced manual effort and reliance on traditional support workflows. 
  • Improved user experience through instant, AI-driven access to information and source pages. 
  • Faster decision-making through guided, frictionless responses. 
  • Scalable foundation for multiple production chatbots across the enterprise.

Powering Enterprise AI with Claude

  • Claude acts as an enterprise intelligence layer in a regulated financial services environment. 
  • Claude goes beyond chat by understanding intent, generating grounded answers, and delivering intelligent summaries. 
  • Claude-enabled AI assistants used diverse enterprise workflows: Deluxe.com, Merchant Services, Service Partner Portal, Client Services, FirstView, and MyCorp.

DAX demonstrates how a secure, governed, enterprise-scale AI assistant can enhance productivity, accelerate access to information, and elevate customer experience across financial workflows.
