# Overview

> What Structured Finance does and how the workflows fit together

Structured Finance is an agent-driven workflow for onboarding, harmonizing, and analyzing ABS collateral tapes. It takes a raw loan or lease tape through to a reviewed, standardized dataset, then supports stratification, cross-deal comparison, and prospectus-based analysis on top of it.

## Supported deal types

Structured Finance works with Auto ABS deals, including GMCAR, SDART, BMWOT, TAOT, CALT, and EART.

## Workflow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Tape Cracking">
    Upload a raw tape and harmonize it against a Common Data Model (CDM). The agent maps source fields to the target schema, runs data quality checks, and surfaces mappings for review.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Stratifications & Pool Selection">
    Run stratification analyses on the harmonized tape using built-in or custom templates. Every result traces back to an inspectable pipeline.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Export & Sharing">
    Export results as PDF or Excel, or share a project snapshot. Changes made through the agent regenerate exports automatically.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Skills">
    Use built-in AI skills — ad-hoc stratification queries, cross-deal comparison, CDM authoring, and spec generation — triggered by natural-language prompts.
  </Step>
</Steps>
