Lender Submission & Pipeline Tracking

Q: Do brokers still need to review each submission?

Brokers can review the recommended lender match and package before it goes out, or let it flow through automatically once trusted.

Q: Can this work alongside our existing pipeline system?

Yes, it connects to the tools already used for email, documents, and pipeline records rather than replacing them.

Q: What happens if a lender declines the deal?

The workflow repackages the deal and sends it to the next matched lender automatically, updating the pipeline record along the way.

Q: Is this suited to a small brokerage team?

Yes, it is built for the deal volume typical of a small to mid-size brokerage and scales with additional lenders or reps.

Keep every deal moving by automating lender submissions and live pipeline updates across your broker book.

About This Automation

Lender submission and pipeline tracking involves matching each deal to the right lender, assembling a complete package, and chasing status updates until a decision comes back.

The automated version checks completeness, scores the deal against lender criteria, builds and sends the submission, then tracks the response and resubmits automatically if declined. Deals move through the pipeline faster with fewer stalled files and fewer missed follow-ups.

Key features:

Checks incoming credit applications and financials against a required-documents checklist automatically

Scores each deal against every lender's current appetite criteria to identify the best match

Generates a formatted submission package without manual drafting

Sends the submission to the matched lender and logs it in the pipeline record

Monitors for lender decisions and resubmits to a backup lender if the deal is declined

Updates deal status and notifies the sales team as soon as a decision arrives

Top friction points when done manually

The issues teams report most often with this process

2	Incomplete submission packages Missing documents are often caught only after the deal reaches the lender.	67%
3	Inconsistent lender matching Appetite criteria change often and manual matching does not always keep up.	53%
4	Pipeline record lag Deal status updates are entered after the fact, so the pipeline view is often stale.	40%
5	Slow resubmission after decline Repackaging and sending to a backup lender adds delay right when speed matters most.	26%

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Deal Package Receivedtrigger

A attachment containing the credit app, financials, and equipment quote triggers the workflow.

2. AI Completeness & Lender Match Check

The automation checks documents against the required list and scores the deal against each lender's appetite matrix.

3. Request Missing Information

If documents are incomplete, a templated message goes back to the sales rep listing exactly what is missing.

4. Build Submission Package

The automation compiles the credit app, financials, and quote into a formatted PDF matching the target lender's submission template.

5. Submit To Lender

The package is sent to the matched lender or portal upload.

6. Log Pipeline Record

The deal, lender, and submission date are logged automatically.

7. Monitor Lender Response

The automation watches the inbox and portal for a decision and flags stalled deals after a set number of days.

8. Notify Sales Rep Of Status

The sales rep gets a update the moment the lender responds or a deal needs attention.
