Lender Submission & Pipeline Tracking

Q: Can the automation handle different lender submission formats and requirements?

Yes, the submission parser learns lender-specific requirements and formats documents accordingly. Unusual or non-standard requests are flagged for manual review.

Q: Will existing submission data in our spreadsheet be migrated automatically?

Historical submissions can be imported into the new tracker during setup. The automation team will map your current data structure and validate accuracy before going live.

Q: How does the automation know when to send follow-up emails to lenders?

Follow-up triggers are based on expected response windows you define per lender. If no response is received within that timeframe, an automated follow-up is sent and logged.

Q: What happens if a lender requests documents we don't have on file?

The automation flags the request and notifies the broker immediately. The broker collects the documents from the client, and the automation resubmits them to the lender.

Keep every live deal visible and every lender submission on time, without a spreadsheet holding it together.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New Submission or Lender Responsetrigger

Automation detects a new loan application submission or an incoming lender response email. The trigger captures borrower details, loan amount, lender name, and any status updates.

2. Parse Submission Details

The automation extracts key information from the submission request or lender email, including borrower name, loan amount, lender, submission date, and response status. Extracted data is validated against known lender formats.

3. Log

Submission details are automatically created or updated as a deal record, with status, lender, borrower, and loan amount fields populated. The record links to the client contact.

4. Notify Broker

A message is sent to the broker with submission summary and any lender requests or status changes, ensuring immediate visibility without email clutter.

5. Is Follow-Up Needed?

The system checks if the submission has exceeded the expected response window (e.g., 5 business days). If yes, a follow-up is triggered; if no, the submission remains in active tracking.

6. Send Follow-Up Email

If follow-up is needed, an automated email is sent to the lender requesting a status update. The email is logged and the submission status is marked as awaiting response.

7. Update Client Status

A summary email or message is sent to the broker with the latest submission status, ready to share with the client. The broker reviews and sends to the client with any additional context.
