An Expert Take on How AI is Transforming the HELOC Experience in Mortgage Lending

Generative AI is revolutionizing the Fintech industry, turning once slow, manual processes into seamless, efficient operations. In mortgage lending, this technology drives innovation by streamlining tasks and improving customer experiences. Tavant, a leading digital products and platform company, is at the forefront of this transformation, delivering cutting-edge AI-driven solutions across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Hemanthkumar Jambulingam, Director of Product Management at Tavant, leads the development of the Touchless Lending® suite. This suite leverages AI to reimagine loan origination and servicing, helping lenders improve customer acquisition, conversion, and retention—all while enhancing operational efficiency and speeding up processes. Check out the excerpts from a detailed discussion where Hemanthkumar shares his insights on why HELOCs are becoming increasingly attractive to homeowners and how AI is empowering lenders to provide more personalized and efficient services. Q: What is the impact of Generative AI on the Fintech landscape? Generative AI is fundamentally reshaping the Fintech industry by boosting productivity, enhancing software quality, and accelerating development cycles. It is able to improve productivity by automating many repetitive tasks, particularly in coding and testing. However, it’s not about replacing manual labor, but it has more to do with enhancing human capability. For instance, AI models can analyze massive datasets in real-time, offering actionable insights that accelerate decision-making in financial services. On the customer side, AI-driven chatbots streamline support, resolving common issues instantly, freeing up resources, and improving response times. Generative AI has a profound impact on software quality. AI-powered testing can automatically generate test cases, helping to catch errors that might slip through manual checks. This reduces human error, making software more stable and reliable. Furthermore, AI-driven personalization allows financial products and services to be tailored to individual needs, increasing customer satisfaction by delivering more relevant solutions. AI tool for code generation have accelerated the development cycles. For instance, auto-completion and auto-generation have revolutionized how quickly financial software can be developed and deployed. These tools produce high-quality, contextually accurate code, reducing the time spent on manual coding. Additionally, AI-driven continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) systems automate key stages of the development pipeline, speeding up product launches. The adaptive nature of AI ensures continuous optimization, driving faster innovation.   Generative AI is not just improving efficiency; it’s ushering in a new era of rapid innovation in Fintech, enabling companies to bring financial products to market faster, with greater precision and reduced risk. Q: What is the current landscape of home equity lending, especially with HELOCs?The home equity lending market has seen significant changes, particularly with the rise of Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs) in 2024. Homeowners are increasingly turning to HELOCs as a flexible financial solution, leveraging their property’s value to gain greater financial freedom. HELOC originations surged by over 20% in 2024, driven by rising home prices and homeowners’ reluctance to refinance at today’s higher mortgage rates. With more than $32 trillion in home equity available, homeowners are using HELOCs to access this wealth without refinancing their primary mortgages. Why Are HELOCs So Appealing? Homeowners are drawn to HELOCs because of their flexibility. A HELOC functions like a credit card—borrowers can draw funds, repay, and re-borrow as needed. This makes HELOCs ideal for ongoing expenses like home renovations or education costs. Another key factor is relatively low interest rates, which hover around 9% in 2024, making HELOCs more affordable than personal loans or credit cards. Tax benefits further boost their appeal, as interest on HELOCs remains deductible when used for home improvements. Key drivers behind the HELOC boom include rising home prices, which have been increasing by 6-7% annually, and rising consumer debt—households in 2024 carry an average debt of $104,215. Many are using HELOCs for debt consolidation, lowering monthly payments and saving on interest costs. Additionally, HELOCs provide a financial safety net in uncertain times, offering flexibility while preserving liquidity.   Q: Can you explain the market dynamics behind the surge in HELOCs? The resurgence of HELOCs in 2024 is driven by a convergence of macroeconomic factors, including rising interest rates, limited housing inventory, and substantial home equity accumulation. Mortgage rates in 2024 are significantly higher, ranging between 6% and 7%. Homeowners with sub-4% mortgages are reluctant to refinance, resulting in a 40% decline in refinancing applications. Consequently, HELOCs have become the preferred option for accessing home equity without losing favorable mortgage terms. Limited Housing Inventory and Rising Home Prices are key factors. The housing market faces a severe inventory shortage, with just 2.7 months of supply available. This has driven home prices up by 7.3% in 2023 alone. As home values rise, so does home equity, prompting more homeowners to use HELOCs to tap into this wealth. Inflation and Economic Flexibility have made a huge impact. With inflationary pressures making it harder for families to manage rising costs, HELOCs offer a low-cost, flexible credit line that can be used as needed. The revolving nature of a HELOC, where interest is only paid on what’s borrowed, makes it a cost-effective and attractive financing option in uncertain economic times.   In conclusion, Generative AI is transforming the Fintech landscape, particularly in home lending with the rise of HELOCs. By enhancing operational efficiency and enabling personalized solutions, AI empowers lenders to meet the evolving needs of homeowners. As rising home equity and demand for flexible financial products grow, HELOCs are set to play a crucial role in navigating economic uncertainty. This synergy between Generative AI and home equity lending will foster a more responsive financial ecosystem, benefiting both lenders and consumers.

Crafting a Culture of Quality-Driven Development

The world of software development is often weighed down by one metric: defects. Our obsessions are bug fixes, crash corrections, and error reduction. While this emphasis on technical issues is understandable, it gives a false impression of the quality of the software. Usability, maintainability, scalability, security, and user satisfaction are all components of true quality, which goes well beyond the mere absence of bugs. The quest for quality in the dynamic field of software development extends well beyond eliminating defects. Establishing a culture that prioritizes quality, continual improvement, and a commitment to delivering products that not only fulfill but also surpass expectations is key. If we’re going to build truly unique software, we need to change our thinking. This does not mean completely ignoring bugs but placing them within a broader context of quality attributes. So, how do we escape this trap and build a culture where quality is not just an aspiration but a core value? Here are some fundamental principles of a quality-driven development culture: Shifting Mindsets: From Testing to Quality Assurance: Testing is an essential part of ensuring a product’s quality, but a quality-driven culture goes beyond simply identifying and resolving bugs. It demands a shift in mindset from mere testing to comprehensive quality assurance. This change entails taking preventative steps like code reviews, design inspections, open communication around potential issues, prioritizing refactoring, and recognizing accomplishments in quality alongside product launches. Embracing Continuous Improvement: Continuous improvement is essential to a quality-driven development culture. View defects not as failures but as opportunities to learn and improve. Analyze their root causes, implement preventative measures, and communicate the team’s lessons learned. Motivate your team to embrace an attitude of continuous improvement and learning. Frequent feedback loops, retrospectives, and the integration of lessons from past projects create an environment that develops and changes with every development cycle. Metrics Beyond Bugs: While tracking and fixing bugs is crucial to maintaining software quality, it doesn’t provide a complete picture of a project’s success or health. Use insightful measurements that go beyond the conventional defect count. Measure things like user satisfaction, code coverage, and performance benchmarks. These indicators give you a comprehensive picture of your product’s caliber and can point your team toward areas that need work and development. Investing in the Professional Development of Team Members: A culture that prioritizes quality understands the value of supporting team members’ professional growth. Encourage certifications, workshops, and training courses that improve their abilities. By investing in training, team members remain updated with evolving technologies and learn better ways of doing things. This could lead to greater productivity and creativity. Shared Ownership: Testers and QA teams aren’t the only ones accountable for quality. Everyone engaged in the development process—from developers and designers to executives and product managers—has a shared responsibility for it. Encourage open lines of communication between the development team, stakeholders, and other departments. Promote cross-functional collaboration to ensure that everyone is on the same page with the overall objective of producing a high-quality product. Automation is Key: Use automation to expedite monotonous work so your team can concentrate on more intricate, high-value jobs. In addition to lowering the risk of errors, automated testing, continuous integration, and deployment pipelines also make development processes more dependable and efficient while freeing up human resources for more strategically important tasks. Conclusion In summary, creating a quality-driven development culture involves more than just focusing on defects; it also entails adopting a holistic approach to excellence, which calls for dedication, teamwork, and readiness to continuously learn and adapt. Your team will be able to constantly surpass the expectations of your stakeholders and users by cultivating this culture. The benefits of quality-driven development are well worth the continued journey. Let’s move beyond defects and create software that surpasses users’ expectations and stands the test of time.

Unlocking Home Equity: A Strategic Move for 2024

As we make strides into 2024, American homeowners find themselves amidst an intriguing landscape of financial opportunities, particularly concerning the utilization of home equity. The past year witnessed a surge in the popularity of Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs), a trend poised to continue into the current year. But why the HELOC frenzy, and what makes 2024 an opportune moment for homeowners to tap into their home equity? Market Dynamics and Demand Surge In understanding the HELOC boom, we must dissect the current market dynamics. Rising interest rates coupled with a dwindling housing inventory have created a scenario where homeowners are opting to stay put, resulting in a substantial accumulation of home equity. However, this accumulation often contrasts with a lack of liquid savings, leaving homeowners in a peculiar position. Enter the HELOC, a financial instrument tailor-made for such circumstances. Flexibility and Favorable Rates HELOCs offer homeowners a flexible credit line, enabling them to access the equity in their homes without altering the interest rate on their primary mortgage. This flexibility is particularly attractive in a landscape where there are hopeful expectations for interest rates to decline. Variable-rate HELOCs with enticing introductory rates present a compelling proposition, aligning with the anticipated trajectory of interest rates in 2024. The competitive marketplace has ushered in a wave of consumer-centric benefits, including lower origination fees, special terms and improved rates. This increased competition empowers consumers to shop for the most favorable options tailored to their financial needs. Navigating Through Friction: The Role of Technology However, amidst the allure of HELOCs, challenges persist, notably in the application and approval process. The traditional timeline of two to six weeks for approval often falls short of meeting the immediate needs of borrowers. This discrepancy underscores the imperative for a streamlined and efficient process, one that addresses consumer expectations of ease, clarity and speed. In response to this demand, innovative solutions have emerged to bridge the gap between consumer expectations and industry capabilities. Advanced technologies, including AI-driven platforms, have played a pivotal role in streamlining the HELOC experience, offering consumers a smoother journey from application to approval. These solutions have significantly reduced the time and complexity traditionally associated with underwriting processes. HELOC vs. Alternatives: A Comparative Advantage When evaluating the merits of HELOCs against alternative financial instruments, several key advantages emerge. Compared to home equity loans, HELOCs offer unparalleled speed of origination and availability, aligning with the urgency often associated with financial needs. Additionally, the variable rates characteristic of HELOCs, especially in the context of projected rate drops, provide homeowners with a strategic advantage in managing their borrowing costs. In contrast to credit cards, HELOCs offer lower interest rates and structured repayment periods, ensuring greater financial stability and long-term planning. Furthermore, the potential tax deductibility of HELOC interest payments further enhances its appeal, setting it apart as a financially astute choice for homeowners. As we navigate the financial landscape of 2024, the strategic utilization of home equity emerges as a compelling option for American homeowners. HELOCs, with their flexibility, competitive rates and technological advancements, stand as a beacon of opportunity amidst a sea of financial choices. By tapping into their home equity intelligently, homeowners can unlock a world of possibilities, realizing their financial aspirations while safeguarding their most valuable asset—their home.

Empowering DevOps Testing: The Strategic Evolution of Quality Assurance

Incorporating software testing into the DevOps paradigm can immensely affect project results. The main idea behind DevOps is that it promotes cooperation between different departments and helps to unify diverse teams. Teamwork is crucial in a DevOps approach. It fosters closer collaboration between the testers, developers, and operations staff in which they eliminate age-old walls that existed previously. This all-encompassing integrated approach not only addresses the voids across different teams but also provides quality, tested software with consistent quality to customers all the time to match the customer’s needs/expectations. Here are some of the critical benefits of empowering software testers in DevOps: Faster Delivery: DevOps focuses on CI/CD as a process of building, testing, and releasing software in much smaller increments than those used in traditional development approaches. CI/CD requires automation. It is crucial for there to be automated tests that skilled testers manage and execute. Automating the testing process will enable developers to detect potential errors early enough and rectify them at the initial stage rather than escalate them. In addition, it involves working hand in glove with developers to ascertain that the code is sufficiently and correctly tested during all stages of its development. For instance, testers can make the CI/CD process smooth through the automation of testing activities that reduce the time taken to release features to the user while at the same time ensuring the user gets timely quality updates.   Continuous Feedback and Iterative Improvement: Incorporating testers’ feedback into the development process creates a dynamic analysis, adjustment, and refinement loop. This allows developers to resolve problems in these applications, optimize them by improving their quality, and make the interface more user-friendly. Therefore, every cycle offers an opportunity for implementing enhancement, leading to continuous improvement in the software. The iterative development process requires constant feedback from the testers. The resulting insights enable improvements in software quality and facilitate innovations to ensure that every iteration benefits from the successes and lessons of the previous iterations. The result is an iteratively improving software that is equipped to meet today’s demands and near-future challenges or openings.   Increased Collaboration: DevOps is a transformational technique that breaks down the barriers within an organization as it involves easy flow of communication among varied teams. Empowering testers to participate in the whole development process encourages a culture that embraces shared ownership and accountability for developing high-quality software. Such alteration triggers team spirit that makes everyone involved, including developers, testers, and other stakeholders, feel responsible for the success of the whole product. Testers also bring a fresh take to design discussions, sprint planning, and retrospectives. They offer valuable input in which they share their expertise, which is essential for developing the overall software architecture and functionality. As such, it increases synergies, improving quality at large and developing products more suited to users’ expectations.   Improved Quality: When testers are given the authority to uphold the quality standard, they become adept at spotting and reporting defects at the nascent stages of development. As a result of this empowerment, it is possible to build robust testing methodologies that thoroughly examine the software from various perspectives. The emphasis shifts towards complete test coverage that covers numerous situations and use cases. In effect, such as in the case of an empowered tester, the outcome is improved through quality software that satisfies and surpasses users’ expectations.   Increased Customer Satisfaction: Enhanced software quality through empowered testers leads to timely bug fixes, immediate feature deliveries, and consequently higher customer satisfaction. Customers feel higher trust and satisfaction when they use a product without many problems and receive easy access to new functions. The efforts of such empowered testers directly influence this cycle of customer satisfaction, loyalty, and advocacy. They not only provide great user experiences, but they also establish an impressive brand impression. Together with prompt responses to bugs and the provision of innovative feature updates, they lay a solid basis for ensuring clients remain faithful to the brand and recommend it to others positively.   Cultural Transformation: When testers are empowered, they are not confined to their role but are seen as essential contributors to the development process. This helps keep everyone in mind that every member’s input is necessary for producing a first-rate product, and the group makes this possible by involving them. There is thus this sense of shared duty in which everyone in the company works towards improving processes, seeking out choke points, and providing innovative thought for the benefit of all.   In summary, empowering software testers in a DevOps environment creates a positive ripple effect. It accelerates the feedback loop, enhances software quality, and, most importantly, serves as a cornerstone for cultivating a DevOps culture within the organization. Empowered testers are critical enablers for successfully adopting and implementing DevOps principles and practices by supporting cooperation and an initiative-taking QA approach.

Tavant Announces the Launch of a New Product to its AI-powered Touchless Lending® Platform

SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 25, 2023 SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 25, 2023 – Tavant, Silicon Valley’s leading digital lending solutions provider, today announced the launch of a highly anticipated new product, Asset Analysis, to Touchless Lending®, their AI-powered digital lending platform. With this addition, Touchless Lending will further solidify itself as the most comprehensive automated underwriting solution available to mortgage lenders by providing coverage over all four major underwriting components, including Income, Credit, Collateral, and soon Asset Analysis. Touchless Lending Asset Analysis is in the near-final stages of production and will be available in-market by the end of June 2023. “This upcoming launch of Touchless Lending Asset Analysis will perfectly complement our currently available underwriting products – Document, Income, Credit, Collateral, and Decision Analysis – and put Tavant one step closer to achieving our goal of enabling straight-through processing and fully automated underwriting for mortgage providers,” said Mohammad Rashid, Head of Fintech Innovation at Tavant. “Our current Touchless Lending products reduce the cost to process and underwrite by $1000 per loan and achieve a scale of double-digit underwrites per day per underwriter. With Asset Analysis fitting in as the final piece, Touchless Lending will be capable of having even more of an impact on reducing cycle times and origination costs for lenders.” Asset Analysis automates an underwriter’s labor-intensive process of reviewing assets and multiple bank statements, allowing them to accurately ensure that the borrower’s assets are responsibly sourced and quickly determine the likelihood that the borrower will have sufficient funds to cover down payments, closing costs, and reserves for the mortgage transaction. Asset Analysis checks for relevant loan details and document acceptability to identify and condition for large deposits or deposits from sources that are inconsistent with the loan application. Furthermore, AI and ML models are integrated into Asset Analysis to automatically review bank statement withdrawal transactions to detect, identify, and condition for anomalies, undisclosed financial transactions, or any recurring payments in the statements. “Touchless Lending Asset Analysis will identify, calculate, then determine borrower eligibility and derive qualified income across bank statements based on the investor or program-specific requirements,” said Hemanthkumar Jambulingam, Director of Fintech Product Management at Tavant. Touchless Lending provides straight-through mortgage processing and automated underwriting as part of the end-to-end mortgage manufacturing pipeline. Loan officers, processors, and underwriters utilize Touchless Lending’s machine-oriented, optimized workflows to engage with borrower and property data to make better decisions faster instead of relying on physical documentation and manual data entry. This one-of-a-kind solution automates the loan production process, allowing lenders to originate mortgages quicker while reducing costs and repurchasing risks. Touchless Lending also effortlessly integrates with existing systems, including client CRM, POS, and LOS. “Tavant offers the flexibility for lenders to determine whether they want to benefit from the whole Touchless Lending automation suite or instead choose one or a few analyses independently of the others,” continued Rashid. “Even if using all that Touchless Lending has to offer is guaranteed to generate higher productivity and efficiency than using only a portion of the platform, we understand that every lender is unique, and at Tavant, we are here to help you identify the optimal path to accommodate your specific needs.” As a leading Fintech software and solutions provider for over 20 years, Tavant proactively anticipates customer needs and adjusts accordingly to provide the right configurable solutions. Tavant’s  Touchless Lending® product suite, which now includes experiences not just for underwriters and processors but also for home buyers, loan officers, brokers, realtors, and more, maximizes data-driven decision-making to solve even the most complex lender and borrower challenges. Tavant’s growing customer base originates one out of every three home loans in the United States. Find Tavant on LinkedIn and Twitter.

This partnership will feature an end-to-end implementation of Touchless Lending Automation, starting with Decision Analysis, followed by Document, Credit, and Collateral Analyses in early 2023. “As we get closer and closer to launch, it is clear to us that Decision Analysis is more than just a tool for underwriters and quality control.

Decision Analysis can integrate with any lender ecosystem and delivers a frictionless origination experience in the mortgage underwriting process for Borrowers, Loan Officers, Underwriters, and Capital Market teams. “Lending transactions, especially in the residential mortgage space, don’t just take place between borrowers and lenders.

Tavant Launches Two Additional Products to its AI-Powered Touchless Lending Platform

SANTA CLARA, Calif. & NASHVILLE, Tenn., October 25, 2022 SANTA CLARA, Calif. & NASHVILLE, Tenn., October 25, 2022 – Tavant, Silicon Valley’s leading digital lending solutions provider, today announced at the MBA Annual in Nashville the launch of two highly anticipated new products to Touchless LendingTM, their widely-used digital lending platform and signature Fintech product brand. With these additions, Tavant further solidifies its status as the industry’s preferred mortgage automation partner by diversifying its AI-powered Lending-as-a-Service platform to include both Credit Analysis and Collateral Analysis – two separate product offerings newly available as part of Touchless Lending’s suite of products. This expansion marks a significant milestone for Tavant as the organization makes steps towards unifying all of its Fintech products under one overarching product brand, Touchless Lending, which now includes experiences not just for underwriters and processors but also for home buyers, loan officers, brokers, realtors, and more. Touchless Lending™️ provides straight-through mortgage processing and automated underwriting as part of the end-to-end mortgage manufacturing pipeline. Loan officers, processors, and underwriters utilize Touchless Lending’s machine-oriented, optimized workflows to engage with borrower and property data to make better decisions faster instead of relying on physical documentation and manual data entry. This one-of-a-kind solution automates the loan production process, allowing lenders to originate mortgages quicker while reducing costs and repurchasing risks. Touchless Lending also effortlessly integrates with existing systems, including client CRM, POS, and LOS. “With the launch of Credit and Collateral Analysis, which seamlessly complement our currently available products – Document, Income, Multi-Investor, and Decision Analysis – Tavant can achieve their goal of straight-through processing and fully automated underwriting sooner than expected,” said Mohammad Rashid, Head of Fintech Innovation at Tavant. “We pragmatically reduce the cost to process and underwrite by approximately $1000 per loan and achieve a scale of double-digit underwrites per day per underwriter. In addition, the flexibility to deploy any one of these products independently of the others, or deploy in a cohesive package for underwriting, significantly increases the platform’s ease of adoption.” Credit Analysis, now part of Touchless Lending, is a machine-based approach to underwriting the credit component of a mortgage application, which automates the review of credit reports for all borrowers on the application for a home loan. These reports include the following features: a review of (1) debts, liabilities, and credit utilization, (2) public records to identify issues pertaining to bankruptcy, foreclosure, judgment, liens, and fraud, (3) applicant personal data against the credit report for verification purposes, and lastly, (4) investor and lender-specific guidelines (both agency and non-QM), which automatically raises conditions as needed and subsequently reevaluates the primary loan ratios. Touchless Lending Credit Analysis can be performed in seconds, thereby alleviating time for underwriters to focus on other tasks and significantly reducing the overall cost and time required to underwrite and process a loan. Collateral Analysis, the second new addition to Tavant’s Touchless Lending platform, automates an underwriter’s manual, labor-intensive appraisal review process, allowing them to focus their attention on other pressing issues that require action. These features include the following: (1) GSE and private investor guideline checks, (2) validating appraisal information across the loan file, including title, sales contract, flood, homeowners’ insurance policies, etc., (3) home images and appraiser comment analysis using various AI/ML techniques, and (4) FEMA, USPS, and Flood Zone authentication. Eliminating manual review and data entry while identifying and escalating issues automatically allows for more accurate and faster decisioning and closing. Touchless Lending Collateral Analysis benefits every mortgage channel of business and goes far beyond industry standard appraisal review tools available today. As a leading Fintech software and solutions provider for more than 20 years, Tavant proactively anticipates customer needs and adjusts accordingly to provide the right configurable solutions. Tavant’s Touchless LendingTM  product suite, which now includes Credit and Collateral Analysis, maximizes data-driven decision-making to solve even the most complex lender and borrower challenges.

Tavant’s Touchless Documents instantly recognizes documents, automating document classification, indexing, splitting, categorization/subcategorization, pairing with borrowers, and data extraction with the highest accuracy. Additionally, the Touchless Lending platform integrates seamlessly with existing lender systems, including CRMs, Point-of-Sales, LOS, and document management systems, to optimize document-related workflows, organize and process documents faster, and deposit the results of the document classification and data extraction back into the system of record. “With the launch of FinDecision being so successful, adding Tavant’s Touchless Documents into the mix seemed like the logical next step,” said Scott Dubnoff, Chief Technology Officer at American Financial Resources, Inc. “And we were right. Their implementation was a smooth and painless process. It took about six weeks to integrate Tavant’s product into our systems fully. After one month of running Touchless Docs with real data, we determined their document classification accuracy greatly surpassed our expectations. We have only just started with this technology yet are already seeing returns in both labor efficiency and data accuracy. We have only scratched the surface with document classification and plan to expand to data extraction next. This opens even more possibilities for automation as we look to expand usage of the product to other areas of our process.” Before deploying Touchless Documents, processing broker-submitted loan documents was time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring the utilization of a pool of human resources and turnaround times that could potentially be overnight. After implementing Tavant’s Touchless Documents, what used to take hours now takes minutes. Brokers can get immediate feedback on their file uploads and provide direct input to their borrowers on requested document uploads. After only one month of usage, Touchless Docs has processed close to 500 loans and over 90k pages of loan documentation with a document classification success rate of approximately 92%. “AFR and Tavant have aligned missions to make homeownership more accessible for all and to provide several offerings that can support underserved communities in the housing market,” said Hassan Rashid, Chief Revenue Officer at Tavant. “While lenders have had to undergo lengthy processes in the past manually, Tavant now introduces a machine-oriented approach that successfully increases workflow up to 80% by automating and regulating the processes of loan application and disbursal.” As the leading Fintech software and solutions provider for more than 20 years, Tavant proactively anticipates customer needs and adjusts accordingly to provide the right configurable solutions. American Financial Resources joins Tavant’s growing customer base, which originates one out of every three loans in the United States. Tavant’s VΞLOX product suite, which now includes Touchless LendingTM, maximizes data-driven decision-making to solve even the most complex lender and borrower challenges.

Tavant Launches Disruptive New Platform – Touchless Lending

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 22, 2021 Accelerating loan manufacturing with AI. Tavant, Silicon Valley’s leading digital lending solutions provider, today announced the availability of its new Touchless LendingTM platform. This AI-powered lending-as-a-service platform maximizes the use of data-driven processes to provide an end-to-end loan manufacturing experience. Touchless Lending’s first product line is mortgage-centric and designed to address key pain points within the mortgage industry. By reducing lengthy origination cycles and removing unnecessary touchpoints, Touchless Lending enables lenders to originate more mortgage loans faster, while also reducing costs. Over the last year, changes in behavioral patterns have shifted much of the home buying process to online interactions. It is now more crucial than ever that mortgage lenders consistently provide seamless digital experiences – to stay both ahead of the competition and in-line with ever-increasing borrower expectations. Touchless Lending delivers exactly what borrowers need, and more by enabling faster e-closing and open communication channels across touchpoints. Loan officers, processors and underwriters can use Touchless Lending’s optimized workflows to engage with data and make decisions faster, instead of relying on physical documentation and manual data entry. The Touchless Lending platform integrates effortlessly with existing core systems, including the LOS, and efficiently automates mortgage production. Sarvesh Mahesh, CEO, Tavant, said, “Now more than ever, companies are hungry for more robust data. They want to make better decisions and automate routine processes to become more efficient, reduce errors and lower costs. Data is the key to making those happen, and Touchless Lending is the tool lenders need to make the best uses of their data.” “The mortgage industry is still not meeting borrower expectations,” added Mohammad Rashid, Head of Tavant’s Fintech Practice. “On average, mortgages are taking 51 days to close, which is unacceptably slow in our on-demand world. Underwriters and processors do not have the tools they need to get the job done efficiently and effectively. Touchless Lending focuses on these overlooked middle and back-office associates, now enabling them to make a clear-to-close decision in as little as five days, handle five times as many mortgages at once and reduce processing and underwriting costs by over 75% per mortgage.” Rapidly gaining market share, Tavant’s expanding customer base originates one out of every four mortgage loans in the United States. As the leading provider of Fintech software and solutions for 20+ years, Tavant proactively anticipates customer needs and adjusts accordingly to provide the right leading-edge solutions. Tavant’s new Touchless Lending platform is an exciting addition to its already robust suite of digital products and solutions, which continue to allow customers to optimize their back-office, simplify their mid-office, and transform their front-end consumer experience into an efficient digital data stream.

Offering this modern technology solution saves the lender a significant amount of time as they can focus on seamlessly pushing through qualifying requests instead of fielding a large volume of calls.” Once a borrower completes their inquiry through the Instant Refi Advisor, lenders receive the information through their CRM system allowing them to have full context on a borrower’s goals when they reach out to complete the transaction. IRA can be plugged into any point of sale systems and can be integrated with a variety of core banking systems to customize product offerings and prep-populate any customer information and data that is required to complete the application. It also comes pre-built for mortgage lenders and has pricing integration, identity verification, credit servicing and CRM integrations available. “Everything we do at Tavant is centered around the customer experience,” said Hassan Rashid, Tavant’s CRO. “By giving the customer details on their refinance upfront and completely on their own, lenders are providing the right kind of personalized advice and insight into a borrower’s refinance, without making them wait to talk to someone. This transforms the end-user experience and streamlines the refi process, meeting customer demand even during this time of high volume while further building customer loyalty.” The IRA tool is configurable and allows lenders to adjust the color, presentation and the details of the borrower inquiry. It can also be hosted on a lender’s landing page or used as a widget, without having to subscribe to Tavant’s suite of products. Tavant’s growing customer base originates one out of every four loans in the U.S. Tavant’s VΞLOX suite of products solves many lender and borrower challenges, while maximizing data-driven processes.
