InBank, Academy Bank, and Core Bank chose iDENTIFY to create healthy data ecosystems and eliminate data silos.


TULSA, Okla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–iDENTIFY, a Tulsa-based data engineering firm and a Snowflake Select Certified Partner, helps community banks unify their data. This quarter, they announced three new banking clients.

InBank, Academy Bank and Core Bank selected iDENTIFY for the team’s ability to help banks scale confidently, without compromising their community-focused service.

“Fragmented data silos slowed down our decision-making,” said Pratt Lewis, CIO of InBank, “iDENTIFY is helping us build a roadmap to the cloud so we can make smarter, faster decisions with confidence for our customers.”

Lee Easton, President of iDENTIFY, emphasizes that reliable data is foundational to the bank-fintech partnerships: “Our role is to help banks increase their confidence and nimbleness by consolidating isolated data sets into an accessible system. Banks must be able to trust their data.”

How iDENTIFY Helps Partner Banks Better Serve Customers

iDENTIFY helps banks centralize data, whether by migrating data to platforms like Snowflake, developing custom reporting, or designing secure data flows between systems like Lithic and Unit21. With cleaner pipelines and fewer manual touchpoints, banks can monitor activity, streamline compliance, and surface strategic insights.

“By collecting all the places we have data and organizing it into useful dashboards, it’s now going to be possible to fine-tune our strategy while it’s ongoing instead of reacting to end results,” said Lindsay Borgeson, President of Partner Banking at Core Bank.

Why Tulsa?

Tulsa’s tech ecosystem has gained national attention after the region’s Tech Hub initiative was honored in Fast Company’s 2025 World Changing Ideas Awards. Easton says the city’s momentum has helped iDENTIFY stay close to the community‑bank market that stretches nationwide.
