Cloudvirga’s Loan Hub equips loan teams with modern tools for managing pipelines, tasks and borrower communication

Streamlined loan processing and underwriting helps lenders deliver a faster, more satisfying mortgage experience for borrowers

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cloudvirga, a Stewart-owned provider of digital point-of-sale platforms for lenders, today announced the launch of its new Loan Hub for lenders seeking an optimized loan team experience. The Loan Hub gives loan officers, LO assistants and processors a modern, intuitive workspace to manage their pipelines, collaborate with borrowers and complete key tasks without toggling between systems.

As the operational counterpart to Cloudvirga’s consumer-facing Tropos experience, the Loan Hub centralizes loan data, applicant interactions and communication tools, empowering lenders to work smarter and offer borrowers a faster, more seamless journey from application to clear-to-close.

“The Loan Hub keeps teams focused on relationships instead of repetitive clicks,” said Jessica Evett, senior vice president of product strategy and technology operations at Cloudvirga. “It brings the modular power of our Tropos consumer portal to the lender side of the experience, giving teams one intuitive workspace that helps them close loans faster and strengthen borrower satisfaction.”

With the Loan Hub, loan teams can:

Simplify pipeline management: View loans and leads in a customizable dashboard with sortable columns, saved filters and at-a-glance progress tracking.
Accelerate application creation: Initiate new borrower records, start applications and send secure invitations to apply.
Keep loans moving: Add, assign and prioritize tasks for borrowers or team members using lender-configured templates from the Tropos admin portal.
Collaborate and communicate seamlessly: Work in the same application simultaneously, share notes and documents and stay aligned on borrower progress with real-time updates and automated notifications.
Import, export and sync effortlessly: Upload lead lists, export pipeline data, and keep loan data and milestones synced with the loan origination system in real time or at configured intervals.
Engage borrowers proactively: Create and manage targeted campaigns and personalized communications from the loan hub to nurture leads, reengage prospects and strengthen relationships across the pipeline.

The Loan Hub complements Cloudvirga’s Tropos portal, which guides consumers through a modern, intuitive and personalized experience from initial application to clear-to-close, and the admin portal introduced earlier this year, which gives lenders real-time control over organizational settings, permissions and workflow configurations. Together, these solutions give lenders end-to-end flexibility to build borrower-first experiences that adapt quickly to changing market and operational needs.

Lenders can learn more about the Loan Hub by visiting https://www.cloudvirga.com or requesting a personalized demo.

Cloudvirga integrates Horizon POS with Stewart Valuation Intelligence to streamline appraisal ordering

Integration gives lenders and borrowers more transparency, faster turn times and fewer manual steps in the appraisal process

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 15, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cloudvirga, a Stewart-owned provider of digital point-of-sale platforms for lenders, today announced the integration of its Horizon POS with Stewart Valuation Intelligence, LLC (SVI), a national provider of appraisal management and residential real estate valuation services. Borrowers applying on a self-serve basis can request an appraisal directly, while loan officers can initiate and manage orders when completing an application on a borrower’s behalf.

Image caption: Cloudvirga integrates Horizon POS with Stewart Valuation Intelligence to streamline appraisal ordering.

The result is a simpler, faster appraisal process that eliminates manual handoffs and keeps both lenders and borrowers informed at every step. By reducing friction and improving transparency, the integration helps lenders shorten cycle times and deliver a more consistent borrower experience.

Lenders decide how tasks are triggered: automatically upon intent to proceed, or by the loan officer sending a secure link to the borrower. Each request is first routed to the loan officer for review before being released to SVI, ensuring details such as FHA case numbers can be added when needed.

SVI then assigns the appraisal through its ValueGuard software to the lender’s contracted AMC, which may include SVI itself or another AMC in the network. Real-time status updates—from order acceptance through inspection and report delivery—flow back to Horizon, where loan officers and borrowers can view the appraisal securely. The integration also supports revision requests, order holds and cancellations, with SVI handling payment collection through its secure system.

“This integration removes a long-standing friction point in the mortgage process,” said Kendra Walters, director of product development for Horizon at Cloudvirga. “By bringing SVI’s appraisal technology into Horizon, we’re giving lenders a more efficient way to manage appraisals and giving borrowers the same consistency and transparency they expect from every other part of the loan process.”

“SVI is committed to appraisal innovation that improves lender efficiency and borrower experience,” said John “J.R.” Raftery, director of valuation strategy at Stewart Valuation Intelligence. “Working with Cloudvirga extends that commitment by embedding our valuation technology directly into the loan workflow, where it can make the greatest impact.”

Cloudvirga announces integration between Horizon POS and ICE PPE

New integration enables loan officers to shop rates, validate eligibility and manage locks within Horizon's Loan Center

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 7, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cloudvirga, a Stewart-owned provider of digital point-of-sale platforms for lenders, today announced a new integration between its Horizon POS platform and the ICE PPE from Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE: ICE). Built on ICE’s latest API framework for mortgage technology, the integration allows loan officers to request loan pricing, validate product eligibility and request rate locks from ICE PPE directly within Horizon’s Loan Center.

Image caption: Cloudvirga.

Horizon is a retail and consumer-direct digital mortgage platform designed to simplify the loan process for borrowers and loan officers alike. Its feature-rich Loan Center gives loan officers the tools to work more efficiently and streamline borrower communication.

The ICE PPE is the only product and pricing engine natively embedded into the Encompass® loan origination system (LOS) from ICE Mortgage Technology®. It allows lenders to efficiently search products and pricing across hundreds of programs, deliver instant rate quotes to borrowers and submit lock requests — all while maintaining data consistency within Encompass.

Using the new integration, loan officers can initiate a pricing and eligibility search at any stage of the loan process, whether generating a quick quote for a prospective borrower or working with a completed loan application. Loan officers can submit rate lock requests directly within Horizon’s Loan Center, with decisions from the secondary lock desk instantly reflected in Horizon and emailed to the submitting loan officer. By syncing with the ICE PPE throughout the origination process, Horizon continually validates pricing and eligibility data to ensure changes in borrower circumstance never cause a loan file to advance to automated underwriting or disclosures with inaccurate pricing.

“Lenders need fast, reliable pricing and eligibility data to stay competitive — and they need it at their fingertips,” said Maria Moskver, CEO of Cloudvirga. “This integration gives loan officers more control and confidence throughout the origination process by combining Horizon’s flexibility with the trusted pricing power of ICE PPE.”

For more information, visit Cloudvirga on the ICE Marketplace.

Encompass Partner Connect enables the integration of key third-party products and services with ICE Mortgage Technology solutions. ICE does not own, control nor endorse any specific industry participant or the product/service provided. Loan originators and servicers are responsible for vetting, selecting and contracting with the providers of their choosing.

New admin portal in Cloudvirga’s Tropos borrower platform puts lenders in the driver’s seat

Functionality lets lenders configure organizational settings, user permissions and loan application workflows in real time

IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 19, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cloudvirga, a Stewart-owned provider of digital point-of-sale platforms for lenders, today announced the general availability of an admin portal for its Tropos borrower platform, giving lenders greater control over how it works for their business and borrowers. With the new functionality, lenders can adjust organizational settings, manage their brand experience across the business structure, customize loan applications and adapt operational workflows—all without developer assistance.

Image caption: Cloudvirga logo.

The admin portal is designed to help lenders respond faster to market changes, maintain brand consistency across branches and deliver more personalized borrower experiences. Administrators can choose out-of-the-box configurations or build workflows from scratch to match their operational structure.

With the admin portal, lenders can:

Customize the loan application: Use a drag-and-drop page builder to develop and change application flows in real time, from adding, modifying and reordering questions and supporting text to adjusting question types and required response formats.
Brand the experience: Implement color schemes, visual branding and legal content like privacy policies to align the borrower’s experience with business requirements at every organizational level.
Configure organizational hierarchies: Establish any structure, from corporate level to individual loan officers, with the option for distinct application sites and product experiences tied to subdomain URLs.
Keep legal content current: Update privacy policies, terms of use, disclosures and licensing as needed.
Manage borrower communications: Configure custom or standard SMS messages and emails for targeted borrower groups.
Control vendor integrations: Manage connections for key integrations such as credit, eSign, verification, LOS import/export and more with the option to add proprietary integrations via MISMO-mapped APIs.
Activate or deactivate tasks: Adjust task triggers to meet changing business needs.
Manage users: Add administrators, loan officers and other members of the loan team individually or in bulk, assign permissions and send invitations for account setup.
Track loan activity: Generate and export real-time reports on loan officer activity and fallout tracking.

“The admin portal puts configuration power directly in lenders’ hands,” said Shakeya Fort, senior product manager at Cloudvirga. “By making it easier to tailor Tropos to organizational needs, we’re helping lenders respond faster to market changes and create borrower experiences that strengthen relationships from application to close.”

Cloudvirga honored with PROGRESS in Lending’s 2025 Connections Award

The award recognizes Cloudvirga's integration with Informative Research for transforming income and employment verification in mortgage lending

IRVINE, Calif., June 9, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cloudvirga, a leading provider of digital mortgage point-of-sale platforms, today announced it has been named a recipient of PROGRESS in Lending’s 2025 Connections Award. The award honors strategic partnerships and integrations that are reshaping the mortgage industry by advancing efficiency, innovation, and collaboration.

Image caption: Cloudvirga.

Cloudvirga received recognition for its integration with Informative Research, a trusted verification and data solutions provider for mortgage lenders. The partnership enables seamless access to Informative Research’s verification of income (VOI) and verification of employment (VOE) tools directly within Cloudvirga’s feature-rich digital mortgage solutions. These include Horizon, a retail and consumer-direct point-of-sale (POS) platform designed to empower both borrowers and loan officers; Horizon Wholesale, a purpose-built POS for third-party origination that puts brokers in control; and Tropos, a customer-first loan portal that unifies the borrower experience across loan types and channels. By embedding a configurable, multi-provider verification waterfall at the point of sale, the integration delivers verified results in seconds—reducing delays, costs and friction across the loan lifecycle.

“In today’s lending environment, operational speed and borrower experience are everything,” said Maria Moskver, CEO of Cloudvirga. “Our collaboration with Informative Research helps lenders accelerate loan origination while simplifying one of the most painful parts of the mortgage process. We’re honored to be recognized by PROGRESS in Lending for a partnership that’s truly moving the industry forward.”

Using dynamic rules, the joint solution allows lenders to automate VOI/VOE workflows. If one provider cannot fulfill a verification, the system automatically advances to the next, returning a complete report and populating verified data directly into the loan file. This eliminates the need for borrowers to submit W-2s, pay stubs or employer letters manually and ensures clean data is available for underwriting.

By combining Cloudvirga’s front-end efficiency with Informative Research’s flexible verification engine, the partnership helps lenders reduce costs by up to 80%, cut processing timelines by 5–7 days and significantly improve borrower satisfaction. It’s a model for how integrations can transform key moments in the lending process—and help lenders build stronger, more scalable operations.

The Encompass® Docs Solution helps lenders automate the creation of compliant, accurate loan documents within ICE’s digital lending platform. Cloudvirga’s Encompass Docs Solution integration leverages ICE Mortgage Technology’s API-based framework rather than the legacy SDK layer, aligning with ICE’s long-term strategy to modernize and streamline third-party integrations.

Designed with the flexibility to support a variety of consumer lending products, Tropos enhances Cloudvirga’s POS ecosystem with a modular, customer-first solution that helps lenders drive engagement, reduce time to close and establish lasting borrower relationships.

Image caption: Tropos, a next-generation borrower portal.

Tropos isn’t just a new portal. It’s Cloudvirga’s bold answer to what’s been missing in digital lending: a unified borrower experience that adapts to a lender’s real-world operations without requiring tech stack overhauls or lengthy implementations.

“With Tropos, lenders finally get what they’ve been missing: a smarter, more human loan application and processing experience that doesn’t force tradeoffs between automation and connection,” said Maria Moskver, CEO of Cloudvirga. “It’s flexible enough to grow with your business, fast enough to implement in weeks and powerful enough to help you build loyalty from the very first click or tap.”

Designed for real-world lending, not rigid templates, Tropos reflects direct input from Cloudvirga’s lender advisory panel and was developed to address today’s operational realities. It debuts with a strong value proposition for lenders looking to modernize the borrower experience across channels. Key features include:

A modular architecture that enables lenders to implement only the workflows and features they need today, with the flexibility to expand over time
Real-time progress updates and an adaptive Action Center that keep borrowers informed and engaged throughout the loan process
A borrower-first design that blends intuitive self-service with seamless transitions to human support when needed
Configurable messaging and support for multiple languages to help lenders personalize communications without adding complexity

Fast to deploy, built to evolve

Tropos is built for speed and flexibility, with a modern cloud-based architecture and infrastructure-as-code (IaC) approach that supports deployment in weeks—not months. Its lightweight design and product-agnostic integration layer allow lenders to connect Tropos with any existing LOS or third-party provider. Lenders can easily tailor application flows, tasks and notifications without the need for custom development or major IT investment.

Tropos also gives lenders the tools to continuously optimize the digital experience, including A/B testing, real-time messaging updates and data-driven insights to improve borrower engagement over time.

“With Tropos, we’re helping lenders move beyond transaction-based digital tools to a future where the portal becomes a trusted extension of their brand,” said Cloudvirga SVP of Product Strategy and Technology Operations Jessica Evett. “It’s about more than closing loans. It’s about building trust, loyalty and lifetime customer value.”
