What Is the Decisioning Canvas? Floowed’s No-Code Visual Policy Builder
The Decisioning Canvas is the core policy builder inside Floowed’s loan decisioning platform. Credit officers encode their lending policy as a visual flow of nodes covering data inputs, checks, scoring, exceptions, and decisions. Every loan application then runs through that policy automatically, identically, in seconds.
Most lenders carry their credit policy across three or four places at once: a spreadsheet, a doc in someone’s Drive folder, a few threads in Slack, and whatever the engineering team last deployed. The Decisioning Canvas puts all of that in one place, owned by the credit officer, editable without an engineering ticket.
What does the Decisioning Canvas replace?
It replaces the tools that credit teams outgrow fast:
- Credit-policy spreadsheets that break when a second person edits them
- Decision trees buried inside application code, where a policy change means a sprint ticket
- Excel-based scorecards that produce no audit trail
- Ad-hoc email threads to the credit committee for every exception
If any of those sound familiar, you already understand the problem. The Canvas is the fix.
Who operates it?
The credit officer. Not the engineering team.
That’s the point. Plain-English nodes, drag-and-drop policy edits, no code required. The person who owns the policy is also the person who changes it. Policy updates that used to take two weeks now take an afternoon.
This is one reason we built the Canvas the way we did. Lenders across PH and SEA told us that the gap between “we need to tighten the income rule” and “the income rule is live” was measured in weeks, not hours. We closed that gap.
Three quick examples of what you can build
| Use case | What the Canvas does |
|---|---|
| Bureau-query orchestration | Query CIC first; fall back to TransUnion if no file found |
| Cashflow check | Flag application if monthly recurring income is below 1.5x EMI |
| Exception routing | Auto-route to credit committee if loan size exceeds the policy threshold |
Each of these is a node, or a short chain of nodes. You connect them visually. The policy runs on every application without manual review unless the logic specifically calls for one.
What you get on every loan
- The same policy applied to every application, with no drift between officers
- A full audit trail of every decision and the data that drove it
- The ability to change policy without touching code or filing a ticket
- Transparent reasoning on every approval and every decline
That last point matters more than it might seem. Sound credit policy starts with the 5 Cs, and regulators increasingly expect lenders to show their work. The BSP’s guidelines on technology risk management and similar frameworks from OJK both point toward explainability as a baseline expectation. The Canvas gives you an audit trail by default.
Do I need to know how to code to use the Decisioning Canvas?
No. The Canvas is built for credit officers, not engineers. Every node uses plain-English labels. Policy edits are drag-and-drop. You don’t need to file a request with the engineering team to change a threshold or add a new rule.
