How does SouthState Bank compare with its peers on AI and technology?
On this site's AI disclosure index SouthState scores 70.9 (#33 of 120 US banks), second in a nine-bank Southeast group behind Regions (83.8) and ahead of First Horizon (68.7) and Pinnacle (65.3). Its lead is internal adoption it has counted: at June 30, 2026 it reported 2,500+ premium Copilot users, 12K+ prompts a day, a GenAI Knowledge Assistant answering 1.1K+ questions a day and about 90% of credit spreads done by AI, while Pinnacle's CEO cited almost 20 AI engineers and 40 power users in July 2026. Its gap is the customer side. SouthState discloses no customer-facing AI assistant; its app offers chat and secure messaging, Zelle and mobile deposit, and a redesign went live on May 19, 2026. Regions, by contrast, rebuilt its app in-house in July 2025 and reports 2.7 million active mobile users. Against the large banks in its footprint the gap is one of scale: Bank of America says Erica helps more than 24.6 million clients and 60 million clients use its digital tools, Wells Fargo passed 1 billion Fargo interactions and 33 million mobile active users in March 2026, Truist Assist logged 12.5 million+ requests from 2023 to March 2026, and JPMorgan Chase counted 74.6 million active digital customers in 2025. SouthState's own 10-K says it may have fewer resources than many competitors to invest in technology. It competes on service instead: a J.D. Power Net Promoter Score of 49 against a top-quartile threshold of 46, and 29 Coalition Greenwich awards in February 2026.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]

Where does SouthState lead its peers on AI?
01
More disclosed AI numbers than any bank in the group
SouthState scores 20 on disclosed numbers, the most in its nine-bank group (median 14): 2,500+ premium and 2,200+ active basic Copilot users, 12K+ prompts a day, ~90% of credit spreads by AI and 80% of monthly code AI-assisted at June 30, 2026. First Horizon's profile records ChatFHN's time in production, about 15 months (June 2026), but no usage count.[1][14]
02
A busier internal assistant than Pinnacle's on the record
SouthState's GenAI Knowledge Assistant, launched in early 2025, answers more than 1,100 policy and procedure questions a day (June 30, 2026). Pinnacle's ChatPFP, rolled out at Synovus about a year before April 2026, had answered 18,000 banker questions in total and saved over 3,000 hours by then.[1][15]
03
Copilot adoption measured against a benchmark
SouthState's AI Enablement Manager put active use of premium Copilot licences at 95% in August 2026, against Microsoft's 85% benchmark, on about 200,000 prompts a month. Wells Fargo, a far larger bank, reported 92% active usage among more than 30,000 enabled Copilot employees in November 2025.[16][17]
04
The widest described use-case list in the group
SouthState's profile describes 20 AI use cases, 10 of them in production, the most described in the group; Regions describes 15, with 13 in production. SouthState's list runs from credit spreading and BSA sanctions review to call-center agent assist and factoring invoice review, which it says is 20% more accurate with 75% less employee time.[1][18]
Where does SouthState trail its peers on AI?
01
No customer-facing AI assistant while Regions and the large banks ship theirs
SouthState's online banking offers Chat and Secure Messaging, and its June 2026 deck lists expanded call-center self-service only under experimentation. Regions launched personalized in-app insights in July 2026 for 2.7 million active mobile users; Truist Assist handled nearly 2 million requests in 2Q26 alone.[3][1][19][7][20]
02
Less independent coverage than Regions and First Horizon
SouthState scores 12 on independent sources, third in the group behind Regions (22) and First Horizon (17); its AI record leans on its own podcast, decks and filings. Regions' record includes trade-press coverage of its in-house app rebuild and its accelerated plan for 150 new branches in Florida, Georgia and Tennessee.[16][6][21]
03
No named head of AI, unlike Pinnacle
SouthState's 2025 10-K and 2026 proxy name no chief AI, data or information officer; adoption is run by an AI Enablement Manager. Pinnacle names a head of AI, Kevin Johnson, and its CEO said in July 2026 that the bank employs almost 20 AI engineers. SouthState places 4th of 9 on named AI leaders.[12][22][16][23][2]
04
No digital-user count to set beside the big banks'
SouthState reports 1.4 million deposit accounts (June 30, 2026) but no active digital or mobile user figure. Truist reports 5.4 million active mobile users and about 85% of logins on mobile (2Q26); JPMorgan Chase reports 61.7 million active mobile customers for 2025.[1][24][25][11]
Where does SouthState 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.

How do SouthState's digital services compare with the large banks?
What each bank has disclosed about its customer assistant, digital reach, app and employee AI, with the date of the figure. Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Truist all operate in SouthState's footprint; a blank means nothing is disclosed, not that nothing exists.
| Bank | Customer AI assistant | Digital and mobile users | App and digital features | Employee AI tools |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SouthState | None disclosed. Online banking offers Chat and Secure Messaging; expanded self-service in the call center is listed under experimentation (June 30, 2026) | Not disclosed; 1.4 million deposit accounts (June 30, 2026) | Online and Mobile Banking redesign from May 19, 2026 with smart search and account tags; Zelle, mobile deposit, digital wallet, linked outside accounts; a new website with homepage search due November 2026 | 2,500+ premium and 2,200+ active basic Copilot users; 12K+ prompts a day; GenAI Knowledge Assistant at 1.1K+ questions a day (June 30, 2026)[3][1][5][4][84] |

Which banks are SouthState's peers, and why these?
SouthState Bank is compared here with Pinnacle Financial Partners, First Horizon, Regions Financial, Atlantic Union Bankshares, Hancock Whitney, United Community Banks, Ameris Bancorp and Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida: chosen by the editors for this page (see the note below the table). SouthState Bank is classed as a regional or retail-commercial bank in the Southeast.
The computed group mixed in banks from Puerto Rico, New Jersey, the Pacific Northwest and the Midwest; this group holds the regional banks that operate in SouthState's eight-state branch footprint across the Southeast, and three of them (Regions, First Horizon and Pinnacle) also sit in SouthState's own 2026 proxy compensation peer group, while the national banks it competes with are compared in a separate table below.
Does SouthState have an AI virtual assistant like Erica or Fargo?
Not one it has disclosed. SouthState's online banking offers Chat and Secure Messaging, and its June 2026 earnings deck lists expanded self-service in the call center under experimentation. Bank of America says Erica helps more than 24.6 million clients, and Wells Fargo says Fargo passed 1 billion interactions in March 2026.[3][1][8][9]
How do SouthState's digital services compare with Bank of America, Chase, Wells Fargo and Truist?
SouthState offers the core features (Zelle, mobile deposit, digital wallet, linked outside accounts, chat and secure messaging) and redesigned its online and mobile banking on May 19, 2026, but discloses no digital-user count or customer AI assistant. The large banks report scale: 60 million digital clients at Bank of America, 74.6 million active digital customers at Chase (2025), 33 million mobile active users at Wells Fargo and 5.4 million at Truist.[4][3][5][8][11][9][24]
Is SouthState better than Regions at AI?
The record cannot settle capability, but Regions has put more on it: 83.8 on this site's disclosure index against SouthState's 70.9. Regions leads on independent coverage and customer-facing work, such as in-app insights for 2.7 million active mobile users. SouthState discloses more internal numbers, such as 12K+ AI prompts a day and about 90% of credit spreads done by AI.[19][7][1]
How does SouthState's Microsoft Copilot rollout compare with other banks?
SouthState reported 2,500+ premium and 2,200+ active basic Copilot users at June 30, 2026, and its AI Enablement Manager put active use at 95% against Microsoft's 85% benchmark. Wells Fargo reported more than 30,000 Copilot users at 92% active usage in November 2025. Bank of America counts about 200,000 active users of general-purpose AI tools.[1][16][17][85]
How does SouthState compare with Pinnacle and Synovus on AI?
SouthState scores 70.9 on this site's disclosure index and Pinnacle 65.3. Pinnacle, which merged with Synovus on January 1, 2026, names a head of AI and almost 20 AI engineers, and its ChatPFP assistant had answered 18,000 questions by April 2026. SouthState names no AI chief but reports its GenAI Knowledge Assistant answering 1,100-plus questions a day.[94][23][2][15][1][12]
How does SouthState's technology spending compare with the large banks?
SouthState does not disclose a technology budget; its CEO said in January 2026 that AI, a commercial loan servicing platform and an FX platform are inside its expense guidance, and its 10-K says it may have fewer resources than many competitors to invest in technology. JPMorgan Chase guided about $19.8 billion of 2026 technology expense, Bank of America $13.5 billion a year and Wells Fargo more than $10 billion.[95][12][96][97][98]
What does SouthState lead on if not digital scale?
Client ratings and relationship banking. Its 2026 deck reports a J.D. Power Net Promoter Score of 49 against a top-quartile threshold of 46 among the 50 largest US banks, and a Coalition Greenwich commercial score of 64 against 60. In February 2026 it reported 29 Coalition Greenwich awards, the second-highest number in the US for middle-market and small-business banking.[1][13]
