Last updated: Oct 19, 2026

*Part of the [F.N.B. Corporation AI strategy profile](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/banks/fnb). Peer group: Fulton Financial Corporation, First Horizon, SouthState Bank, Pinnacle Financial Partners, Atlantic Union Bankshares, WesBanco, United Bankshares, First Commonwealth Financial Corporation, Valley National Bancorp.*

## How does F.N.B. Corporation compare with its peers on AI and technology?

On this site's AI disclosure index F.N.B. Corporation scores 60.2 (#47 of 120 US banks), fifth in a ten-bank group of its proxy peers and footprint rivals, behind Valley (76.6), SouthState (70.9), First Horizon (68.7) and Pinnacle (65.3) and ahead of Atlantic Union (53.7), Fulton (44.3), WesBanco (26.9), First Commonwealth (25.9) and United Bankshares (2). It leads the group on its own primary disclosures (25, against a median of 17) and is second on disclosed numbers, and those numbers are about revenue: an Opportunity IQ lead engine that has mined more than 270 million transactions and produces about 190,000 leads a quarter (November 2025), 10 AI-enabled fraud tools, and machine-learning deposit pricing that helped cut its total cost of deposits by 21 basis points year on year (July 2026). What sets FNB apart is that it builds: eStore and the Common app, which takes applications for more than 50 products, are proprietary, and critical data sits in an on-premises data hub, while Valley has moved more than 80% of its data-centre capacity to the cloud. Where it trails is staff AI and independent coverage. SouthState counts 2,500-plus premium Copilot users and 12,000-plus prompts a day (June 2026); Fulton put Salesforce Agentforce in the hands of 3,000 employees in six weeks; Pinnacle's ChatPFP has answered 18,000 banker questions. FNB names no staff AI tool or AI vendor, says AI training for all employees is still being developed (March 2026), and has 6 independent sources on its record against a group median of 10. Against PNC, which holds 50.62% of Pittsburgh deposits to FNB's 5.46% (June 2025), the gap is scale: PNC spends about $3.5 billion a year on technology, while FNB does not disclose its technology spend.

## Where does FNB lead its peers on AI?

- **The most primary disclosure in the group.** FNB scores 25 on its own primary disclosures, first in its ten-bank group (median 17): an investor day that put AI on the slides in November 2025, a 2025 10-K risk factor on its heavy reliance on models, AI and generative AI, a 2026 proxy section on AI governance, and AI remarks on each of the last four earnings calls. ([F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000003780825000137/exhibit991-fnbinvestorda.htm), [F.N.B.

- **Revenue numbers where peers report productivity.** FNB's disclosed AI numbers are about selling and funding: about 190,000 Opportunity IQ leads a quarter, leads 6x more likely to become an opportunity after model upgrades, and machine-learning deposit pricing credited with a 21 basis-point year-on-year cut in deposit costs. Valley's headline is cost: about $15 million of run-rate AI savings against $3 million to $4 million of new AI expense (July 2026). ([F.N.B.

- **A proprietary storefront that analysts single out.** eStore, launched under the 2016 Clicks-to-Bricks strategy, and the Common app, which by March 2026 took applications for more than 50 consumer and business products at once, were built in-house. A Truist Securities analyst told American Banker in September 2025 that FNB 'really stands out amongst the banks of its size' on technology. ([PR Newswire via FT Markets](https://markets-data-api-proxy.ft.com/data/announce/full?dockey=600-202603101047PR_NEWS_USPRX____NE06645-1), [Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/fnb-first-national-bank-ai-data-estore-branches-ceo-delie/816568/), [American Banker](https://www.americanbanker.com/news/fnb-corp-is-the-latest-bank-to-plot-growth-in-the-southeast))
- **AI governance written into the proxy.** FNB's 2026 proxy places AI governance with the Board Risk Committee, names an Artificial Intelligence Policy and a Model Risk Management Policy, and describes a Data and AI Governance Committee. United Bankshares' 10-K went from one AI passage in its 2024 report to four in its 2025 report, and First Commonwealth's 10-Qs for Q3 2025, Q1 2026 and Q2 2026 do not mention AI. ([F.N.B.

## Where does FNB trail its peers on AI?

- **No staff-wide AI tool while SouthState, Pinnacle and Fulton report usage.** SouthState reported 2,500-plus premium and 2,200-plus active basic Copilot users and 12,000-plus prompts a day at June 30, 2026; Pinnacle's ChatPFP had answered 18,000 banker questions and saved over 3,000 hours by April 2026; Fulton had 3,000 employees on Agentforce six weeks after its first agent. FNB's proxy says AI training for all employees is being developed. ([SouthState Bank Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/764038/000110465926086278/ssb-20260723xex99d2.htm), [The Motley Fool (earnings call transcript)](https://fool.com/earnings/call-transcripts/2026/04/23/pinnacle-pnfp-q1-2026-earnings-transcript), [Salesforce](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/five-dreamforce-2026-takeaways/), [F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000119312526122941/d79810ddef14a.htm))
- **Fewer independent sources than most of the group.** FNB has 6 independent sources on its record, sixth in the group against a median of 10; First Horizon has 17, SouthState and Pinnacle 12 and Valley 11. Most of FNB's AI detail comes from its own investor day, filings and calls, and it declined to tell Banking Dive how much it has invested in its digital strategy. ([F.N.B.

- **No named AI vendor while peers name theirs.** SouthState approved Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT after its own model tests, First Horizon runs its Enterprise Data Hub on Databricks, and Fulton runs NICE CXone and Salesforce Agentforce. FNB names no AI-model vendor; its 10-K says only that it 'may rely on AI models developed by third parties'.

- **Its customer insight tool is still to launch.** Insight 360, the AI-enabled customer aggregation and recommendation tool, was due to go live by the end of 2026 when FNB last updated it in July 2026. Huntington's Heads Up personalised insights reached 14 million a month by March 2025, and Truist Insights had passed 2 billion proactive insights since 2023.

## Where does FNB rank against its peers on AI disclosure?

Scores from the US AI disclosure index of 120 banks (0–100; 45% of the weight on independent coverage). The index measures what each bank has put on the public record and what outside outlets have reported about its AI, not capability or spending; every count is of entries on that bank's profile, each of which cites its sources.

## On which parts of the AI record is FNB ahead of or behind its peers?

Each row is one input of the index, counted on the profiles of FNB and the 9 peers that are scored on the same basis. "Place" is FNB's position in the group of 10 (1st = most).

| Component (weight) | FNB | Peer median | Most in the group | Place |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Independent sources (45%) | 6 | 10 | [First Horizon (17)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/banks/first-horizon) | 6th of 10 |
| Use cases in production (10%) | 9 | 9 | [Valley (13)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/banks/valley) | 4th of 10 |

## What has each bank in FNB's peer group disclosed about its AI?

Facts from each bank's profile, cited to the profile's own sources. "Not disclosed" means the bank's public record, as cited on its profile, does not state it.

## Which banks are FNB's peers, and why these?

F.N.B. Corporation is compared here with Fulton Financial Corporation, First Horizon, SouthState Bank, Pinnacle Financial Partners, Atlantic Union Bankshares, WesBanco, United Bankshares, First Commonwealth Financial Corporation and Valley National Bancorp: chosen by the editors for this page (see the note below the table). F.N.B. Corporation is classed as a regional or retail-commercial bank in the Northeast.

The computed group mixed in Texas, Oklahoma and Florida banks that do not meet FNB anywhere; this group keeps five banks from FNB's own 2026 proxy compensation peer group (Fulton, First Horizon, SouthState, Pinnacle and Valley, the first four with branches in its Pennsylvania, Maryland or Carolinas markets) and adds the footprint rivals Atlantic Union, WesBanco, United Bankshares and First Commonwealth, while PNC, Citizens, Huntington and KeyBank, which lead deposits in Pittsburgh and Cleveland, are compared in a separate table below.

## Common questions

### Is FNB better than PNC at AI?

The record cannot settle capability, and the two differ by scale. PNC spends about $3.5 billion a year on technology, is building its own language models and used about 115 AI agents to build its new mobile app. FNB does not disclose technology spend; its CEO argues AI lets smaller banks build tools that larger banks miss. ([Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/pnc-new-mobile-banking-app-personalization-agentic-ai/824713/), [American Banker](https://www.americanbanker.com/news/why-pnc-is-building-its-own-ai-factory), [Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/fnb-first-national-bank-ai-data-estore-branches-ceo-delie/816568/))

### How does FNB compare with Fulton on AI?

FNB scores 60.2 on this site's disclosure index and Fulton 44.3. Fulton's AI is vendor AI: NICE CXone in the contact centre and Salesforce Agentforce used by 3,000 employees. FNB's is built in-house: eStore, the Common app, Opportunity IQ leads and machine-learning deposit pricing on its own data hub. ([NICE](https://www.nice.com/press-releases/fulton-bank-revolutionizes-financial-services-interactions-with-nice-cxone-mpower-copilot-and-autopilot), [Salesforce](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/five-dreamforce-2026-takeaways/), [PR Newswire via FT Markets](https://markets-data-api-proxy.ft.com/data/announce/full?dockey=600-202603101047PR_NEWS_USPRX____NE06645-1), [F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000003780825000137/exhibit991-fnbinvestorda.htm), [Investing.com](https://investing.com/news/transcripts/earnings-call-transcript-fnb-tops-eps-view-in-q2-2026-shares-slip-93CH-4798633))

### Does FNB have an AI chatbot like Citizens' CiZi?

No customer AI assistant is in production on FNB's record; an AI-driven customer support portal is on its investor-day roadmap, and Insight 360 is due by the end of 2026. Citizens says CiZi cut mobile-banking call volume by 44%, and Bank of America's Erica has helped more than 24.6 million clients. ([F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000003780825000137/exhibit991-fnbinvestorda.htm), [Yahoo Finance](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/f-n-b-q2-earnings-150341871.html), [American Banker](https://www.americanbanker.com/news/citizen-financials-michael-ruttledge-is-43-on-the-most-innovative-people-in-finance-ranking), [Bank of America Newsroom](https://newsroom.bankofamerica.com/content/newsroom/company-overview/bank-of-america-fast-facts.html))

### How does FNB's technology spending compare?

FNB does not disclose it. Its 2025 non-interest expense was about $1 billion, partly from technology costs, and 2026 expense was guided to the top of $1.00 billion to $1.02 billion on accelerated AI investment. KeyBank puts technology and operations at about $1 billion a year; PNC spends about $3.5 billion. ([Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/fnb-first-national-bank-ai-data-estore-branches-ceo-delie/816568/), [Yahoo Finance](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/f-n-b-corporation-q1-123000791.html), [PYMNTS](https://www.pymnts.com/news/artificial-intelligence/2026/keybank-taps-conversational-ai-cut-call-center-costs/), [Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/pnc-new-mobile-banking-app-personalization-agentic-ai/824713/))

### Who leads AI at FNB compared with its peers?

Santosh Sinha, director of AI and innovation, and Sundeep Tangirala, director of data science and formerly at PNC, joined in September 2025 under chief strategy officer Chris Chan. Valley's AI and data science head is Nickolaus Lachman, Pinnacle's head of AI is Kevin Johnson, and Huntington's program is run by CFO Zach Wasserman. ([F.N.B. Corporation](https://www.fnb-online.com/about-us/newsroom/press-releases/2025/fnb-hires-ai-and-data-science-directors-250918), [American Banker](https://digital-banking.americanbanker.com/profile/nickolas-lachman), [American Banker](https://digital-banking.americanbanker.com/profile/kevin-d-johnson), [Fortune](https://fortune.com/2026/04/24/huntington-bancshares-cfo-ai-strategist/))

### How does FNB compare with First Horizon and SouthState?

Both score higher on this site's disclosure index (68.7 and 70.9 against FNB's 60.2), mainly on independent coverage. SouthState reports 12,000-plus AI prompts a day and about 90% of credit spreads done by AI; First Horizon has run ChatFHN since early 2025. FNB leads both on its own primary disclosures. ([SouthState Bank Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/764038/000110465926086278/ssb-20260723xex99d2.htm), [American Banker](https://americanbanker.com/news/first-horizons-cio-is-36-on-the-most-innovative-people-in-finance-ranking), [F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000003780825000137/exhibit991-fnbinvestorda.htm), [F.N.B. Corporation (SEC filings)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/37808/000119312526122941/d79810ddef14a.htm))

### Why does FNB keep its data on premises when peers move to the cloud?

CEO Vincent Delie says keeping critical data fields on premises, where the bank's own tools can consume them, gave FNB a head start on AI and data science. Valley has gone the other way, moving more than 80% of its data-centre capacity to a cloud hub, and Citizens migrated 700 applications to the cloud. ([Banking Dive](https://www.bankingdive.com/news/fnb-first-national-bank-ai-data-estore-branches-ceo-delie/816568/), [American Banker](https://americanbanker.com/news/valley-banks-russell-barrett-is-47-on-the-most-innovative-people-in-finance-ranking), [American Banker](https://www.americanbanker.com/news/citizen-financials-michael-ruttledge-is-43-on-the-most-innovative-people-in-finance-ranking))
