Problem
Non-agency and non-QM mortgage loans lack a standardized automated underwriting system, forcing lenders to underwrite these files manually. This results in slow, inconsistent decisions, increased human error, and difficulty scaling the asset class for investors.
Solution
LoanLight provides a configurable underwriting engine with AI agents that validate every loan file for authenticity, accuracy, and guideline fit. The platform classifies documents, runs pre-underwriting checks against specific loan programs, and deploys specialized agents for complex DSCR and income calculations. All findings, calculations, and exceptions are compiled into a single decision desk for human review, with deterministic checks and a full audit trail ensuring every result is explainable and defensible. LoanLight operates inside Encompass or via API, so underwriters work within their existing LOS without learning a new system.
Target Audience
Primary customers are non-QM and non-agency mortgage lenders, including banks, credit unions, and private lenders, who need to increase underwriting throughput and consistency while maintaining full auditability.
