ACES Quality Management Q1 2020 Mortgage QC Trends Report: EPDs Rising, Critical Defect Rate Hits Three-Year Low

DENVER, Colo. /ScoopCloud/ -- ACES Quality Management (ACES), formerly known as ARMCO and the leading provider of enterprise quality management and control software for the financial services industry, announced the release of the quarterly ACES Mortgage QC Trends Report. The latest report, which provides nationwide loan quality findings based on data derived from ACES Quality Management and Control Software(TM), covers the first quarter (Q1) of 2020.

Noteworthy findings include:
* Overall critical defect rate of 1.56% matched the lowest rate in three years;
* Defects attributed to the credit and income categories rebounded after climbing higher in Q4 2019;
* Increases in the share of refinances (5%) and conventional loans (2%) contributed to the improvement in the overall defect rate; and
* Early Payment Defaults are on the rise.

"The combination of falling interest rates, employment numbers not yet impacted by COVID-19, and steady property appreciation all contributed to increases in the share of both refinances and conventional loans, which in turn drove the continued decrease in the overall critical defect rate observed in Q1 2020," said ACES Executive Vice President Nick Volpe. "However, the last few weeks of the quarter encompassed the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, and given the economic impact of the pandemic on consumers, the number of early payment defaults increased, as one would expect."

"ACES is monitoring this area closely, and the early Q2 data shows the number of EPDs reviewed by lenders through ACES is 75% higher than the average monthly rate of EPD reviews for 2019. Because an EPD review is triggered only when borrowers fall three or more payments behind, this indicates the industry is still in the early stages of the problem, and there is a high likelihood that the number of EPDs will continue to increase," Volpe added.

The Q1 2020 ACES Mortgage QC Industry Trends Report is drawn from nationwide post-closing quality control loan data from over 90,000 unique loans selected for random full-file reviews, as was captured by the company's ACES Quality Management and Control benchmarking system. Defects listed in the report are categorized using the Fannie Mae loan defect taxonomy.

"Amid the chaos and uncertainty driven by COVID-19, data provides a clear path forward for lenders. While the industry's focus has been on managing the near-historic volumes, Q1 loan defect data also indicates that lenders must also turn their attention to the growing problem of EPDs, as this represents a significant operation and financial risk to their organizations," said ACES CEO Trevor Gauthier. "The power of ACES benchmarking functionality is that it allows lenders to utilize their current QC data to see what may lie ahead and respond accordingly to maintain loan quality and manage risk. This kind of trend forecasting can be a powerful tool in lenders' arsenals especially with so much uncertainty remaining at a macroeconomic level."

DISA Awards By Light Team $198.9M Cloud-Based Internet Isolation Production OTA

MCLEAN, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- By Light Professional IT Services LLC has been awarded a $198.9M, 5-year production Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for the Cloud-Based Internet Isolation (CBII) Program. By Light as the prime contractor for this OTA, with teammate Menlo Security, Inc., are together delivering this next-generation Isolation Platform to protect Department of Defense (DoD) networks worldwide.

Beginning in March 2019, By Light and Menlo worked closely with the DISA CBII Program Management Office (PMO) to design and implement the CBII prototype capability which eliminates most web-based threats such as drive-by-downloads. This technology removes the browsing process from the desktop and moves it to the cloud, effectively creating an "air gap" between the internet and enterprise networks. The successful implementation of this effort will directly enhance military and civilian personnel's ability to defend the DoD Information Network (DODIN).

According to Bob Donahue, By Light CEO, "This win culminates more than 18 months of working closely with Menlo, DISA, and its Mission Partners to shape the commercial application of Menlo's Global Cloud Secure Web Gateway (SWG) to improve DoD's information security posture for those entities conducting business across the Internet. Our CBII solution improves the security posture of the network, will scale to meet DoD needs, is easy to deploy and manage, and optimizes and reduces bandwidth - thereby extending the life of the network."

"This isolation technology allows enterprises to separate their network from the public web while providing users seamless access to the internet with a native browser experience," says Joe Boyd, By Light VP and CBII Program Manager. "Within the cloud native architecture, all components scale horizontally. You couple this with global availability, anytime/anywhere access, always-on cloud with failover between regions, instant on-boarding of users, 24x7x365 operations support, and what you get is an enterprise-class cybersecurity capability virtually eliminating internet browsing threats traversing the Internet Access Points (IAPs) while also optimizing and reducing bandwidth utilization."

"We're truly humbled to partner with By Light on this groundbreaking program with DISA," said Poornima DeBolle, Chief Product Officer, Menlo Security. "Our partnership with the By Light team and the CBII Program Management Office (PMO) is a true testament to the value of the Menlo Security 'Isolation Core' architecture to deliver on their security and scalability needs to help defend the users of the DoD Information Network (DODIN)."

Hoppon Announces Launch of Hyperlocal Small Business Platform

CHICAGO, Ill. /ScoopCloud/ -- Hoppon announces a newly launched hyperlocal app and online grocery and food marketplace for shopping online. With the era of COVID, many shoppers are having trouble getting groceries, for example. Using an online marketplace for the Chicagoland area, shoppers can discover new shops and order it for pickup or delivery. The online grocery platform for Chicago provides a necessary service for vendors to list their shops and attract new customers.

Hoppon is looking for new vendors to join the platform. Vendors can sign up for free and list their shop and products to provide pickup or delivery through December 31, 2020.

"Hoppon is committed to helping small businesses during these difficult times. We are also entrepreneurs and understand better than anyone that we must help each other through this period. And we are here to help," said CEO of Hoppon, Shekar Dhandapani.

Recent data released in a GeekWire article reported in March 2020 42 percent of consumers got their groceries online. The data compared to 22 percent in the same 2018 time period. Over 50 percent of those surveyed by GeekWire saw the current pandemic "permanently boosting their willingness to buy groceries online."

Shopping online and utilizing apps had become the most popular way to shop due to convenience. COVID-19 has sparked a trend in online shopping. Consumers who buy their shoes and cars online realize they don't have the time or want to take the time to hit the grocery store. Customers at a physical disadvantage, such as the elderly or handicapped, see the safety in grocery delivery.

Chicagoland grocery stores, restaurants, deli, and other specialty food owners intent on staying in line with the growing trend can list their shop with Hoppon for online shopping. Adding an eCommerce option to a local store is particularly critical to smaller businesses that hope to remain competitive. Shifting operations to accommodate consumer demand will be vital to survival in the market long after the coronavirus is in our rearview.

Hoppon connects businesses, buyers, and consumers with merchants and vendors. It allows for convenient shopping and interaction between vendors and customers. Shops can list their shop and inventory for online shopping. Our platform ensures safe transactions and allows vendors to provide pickup or delivery to the nearby area.

Online marketplaces like Hoppon are a connection that provides a high level of service to consumers and businesses. From finding products to paying for them to getting deliveries, everyone benefits from a smooth, responsible service.

Small or independent grocers, craft food purveyors, specialty food services, and other food merchants in Chicago shouldn't assume they can't compete with their larger competitors. Signing on with Hoppon, a company that focuses on smaller businesses, can make a deli, restaurant, or bakery as accessible as a major chain.

"We also make it easy for vendors to get started," said Dhandapani. "Hoppon connects consumers with small or independent grocers, specialty food stores, craft food purveyors, and other quality food merchants in the Chicago, Illinois area. Grocers can sign up with Hoppon and select easily upload their available inventory through a CSV file or send the information to us, and we add it. Delis, bakeries, and even specialty food markets are using the platform to make shopping more accessible."

Hoppon also offers a variety of features for business owners comparable to large chain stores like order notifications, and email updates. Keep yourself tech-savvy, let valued customers stay in touch, and new customers discover you through Chicagoland's eCommerce supermarket like Hoppon.

Hoppon's features also include vendors' ability to run promotions to customers. Promotions empower shop owners to reach new customers and keep existing ones. We've added this feature to help vendors drive traffic to their online shop and to their physical shop.

"Marketplaces like this ensure that independent businesses can be technologically up-to-date and quick to serve consumers as giants like Amazon, Whole Foods, and Walmart," said Dhandapani.

Hoppon's app is available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Vendors can register for free to add their shop. Visit Hoppon to list a Chicago area shop here: https://us.shophoppon.com/register-shop/

PayneWest Insurance, a Top 100 National Insurance Brokerage, selects TrustLayer Compliance and Certificate Management Software to leverage next generation technology in their leading Compliance Service Practice

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- PayneWest Insurance, a leading insurance brokerage in the Pacific Northwest, today announced partnering with TrustLayer, Inc., the next generation solution for compliance tracking. PayneWest will leverage TrustLayer to expand value added services within their many Specialty Practices - specifically their Insurance Compliance Service offering to its Construction customers. PayneWest is the leading brokerage in the region to roll out this suite of additional consulting services at scale.

Legacy certificate tracking software systems are often cumbersome and expensive. Industry pioneer TrustLayer provides an innovative risk management system that enables immediate vendor coverage verification. Using a unique robotic process automation (RPA) and AI to automate this manual process allows companies to automatically verify the insurance and licenses of their partners. With TrustLayer, PayneWest is able to elevate and expand its risk consulting services to many more of its customers.

"Small and medium businesses often cannot justify a full-time Risk Manager. TrustLayer gives our brokerage an ability to offer additional risk consulting services to our clients. Most importantly, it helps us better protect our clients from insurance claims caused by their vendors," said Isabel Barichievich, Specialty Practice Project Manager.

Barichievich added, "TrustLayer provides a collaborative risk management platform that allows us to help review and track certificates of insurance (COIs) to make sure our clients' vendors have the correct insurance coverage."

"With the current state of the economy, many vendors are not carrying the right commercial insurance coverage," said John Fohr, Chief Executive Officer of TrustLayer. "By using TrustLayer, PayneWest will be able to automate the traditionally manual process of tracking insurance coverage for their customers, enabling the agency to reduce inefficiency, increase revenue and retain its customer base."

About TrustLayer

TrustLayer is a collaborative risk management application that helps reduce friction between businesses. The company allows their business partners' users to automate the verification of insurance, licenses, and compliance documents (i.e., vendors, subcontractors, suppliers, borrowers, tenants, ridesharing and franchisees). TrustLayer's solution is recognized by the industry and is a member of BrokerTech Ventures (BTV) accelerator, BrushCreek Tech Insurance accelerator, winner of the 2019 R3 CordaCon Insurtech Challenge, and received top honors at The Institutes 2020 annual convention.

Maxwell adds underwriting and closing services to fulfillment platform

DENVER, Colo. /ScoopCloud/ -- Digital mortgage platform Maxwell today announced it has added underwriting and closing services to the Maxwell Fulfillment Platform, enhancing the company's comprehensive suite of technology and outsourced services for small and midsize lenders.

As with its processing solution, Maxwell's underwriting and closing solutions are accessible through the Maxwell Fulfillment Platform on a white-label basis, with all outsourced personnel functioning as an integrated part of the lender's operations team. Because the underwriters leverage Maxwell's uniquely high-quality data gathered on the front end, the underwriting process is faster, which results in an improved borrower and lender experience.

Lenders can add team members as needed to accommodate the ebbs and flows of market dynamics while maintaining full ownership of customer data and delivering a fully branded, streamlined loan experience to borrowers.

Today's unpredictable, high volume market creates a potentially costly challenge for small and midsize lenders, which struggle to scale and accommodate wildly fluctuating volume. The primary challenge they face is meeting output demands.

"Few, if any, small and midsize lenders can sustain, the right balance of skilled labor," said Brian Simons, president of Maxwell, "enough to handle demand, but not so many that you sacrifice margin, and all who are skilled and experienced individuals."

The Maxwell Fulfillment Platform is a complete technology and outsourced solution solves this issue. It enables small and midsize lenders to maintain the precise level of skilled U.S. personnel needed, regardless of market fluctuations, all at a price that rivals off-shore solutions. The platform's team of seasoned processors have an average of 15 years of experience and all are located in the U.S.

"Our lender clients constantly tell us they want Maxwell to provide end-to-end fulfillment services, because they know they'll get technology and service that far exceeds any solution they've tried in the mortgage space," said Simons. "After launching our fulfillment platform with processing services to rave reviews in May, this was a natural progression. We're looking forward to growing our family of solutions, which are redefining the mortgage process and experience for borrowers, lenders and settlement service providers."

"Lenders are in a 'pig in a python' situation right now, so it's not surprising that the demand for embedded fulfillment solutions is high," says John Paasonen, CEO and co-founder of Maxwell. "Beyond that, the needs of small to midsize lenders have not traditionally been served by technology partners. We are on a mission to help small and midsized lenders grow wildly successful businesses."

NotaryCam CEO Rick Triola Receives 2020 October Research Innovation Award for Driving Title Industry RON Adoption

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- NotaryCam(R), the pioneering leader in online notarization and original provider of mortgage eClosing solutions, announced that its founder and CEO Rick Triola has received the 2020 October Research Award for Innovation for his innovations in and driving adoption of remote online notarization (RON) in the lending and title/settlement services industries.

Now in its ninth year, the October Research awards program honors leaders in the title, underwriting, lending and settlement services industries for their accomplishments in the areas of leadership, innovation and philanthropy. Triola was presented with this year's Award for Innovation in a virtual ceremony at the 16th annual National Settlement Services Summit (NS3).

As October Research publication The Title Report noted in its Sept. 2, 2020, coverage of this year's winners:

Triola founded eSigning solutions provider Settleware in 1999 and NotaryCam in 2012. Using this technology, he completed the first mortgage remote online closing in 2014. Since then, he's advocated at every level across the country to advancing the legalization of the technology.

In a time where eClosings and digital mortgage adoption is skyrocketing, Triola intentionally designed the NotaryCam platform with the flexibility to accommodate all types of closing ceremonies. That has allowed the technology to adapt to the inconsistent state regulatory requirements around the country.

NotaryCam is adding roughly 15,000 new users to the platform monthly, resulting in more than 350,000 total users on the platform this year, and has executed more than 250,000 transactions to date.

"I am honored and humbled to accept this award on behalf of myself and the entire NotaryCam team," Triola said. "Our team works tirelessly to not only provide the best RON services to our clients, but also to further advances in the industry and help promote RON adoption. Industry-leading technology is only valuable if it is being utilized, and I am proud of our efforts to lead the field in technological innovation, adoption support and customer service."

Triola pioneered RON in the real estate space when he founded NotaryCam back in 2012 and completed the first mortgage remote online closing (ROC) in 2014. Since then, Triola and NotaryCam have set the industry standard for RON/ROC technology, as the only platform on the market that scales to meet document notarization and real estate closing standards for all jurisdictions, including attorney-state closings; provides all-party access to join the online signing ceremony; and complements its technology with a nationwide network of eNotaries well versed in the intricacies of executing RON eClosings and available 24/7 to ensure a seamless, error-free ROC ceremony at the homebuyer's convenience. Additionally, NotaryCam provides a single platform capable of completing hybrid, in-person e-notarization (IPEN) and RON closings, all of which have experienced increased demand in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In recent months, emergency legislation related to COVID-19 has furthered the nationwide adoption and legalization of RON. Prior to this emergency legislation, the real estate and mortgage industries were reluctant to embrace RON technology without explicit legal support at the state level. Thus, Triola has devoted the last seven years to advancing nationwide RON legalization, including worked closely with the Notary Public Administrators (NPA) section of the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) and the Uniform Law Commission (ULC) on the Revised Uniform Law on Notarial Acts (RULONA), which many states have opted to adopt for their own RON legislation.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- EnergyCAP, Inc. (ECI) is pleased to announce a list of notable accomplishments as it celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2020.

New EnergyCAP Headquarters

ECI employees will begin operating from the company's new state-of-the-art, 20,000-square-foot headquarters facility this month.

The building is located on a prime lot in the Boalsburg Technology Park. To the south, there are beautiful unobstructed views of Tussey Mountain, and to the north, Mount Nittany. The site is directly adjacent to the planned Harris Township Tussey Pond Park and connects to the recently developed network of hiking and mountain bike trails of the Harvest Fields Community Trail System.

ECI's 40-year anniversary year became a great occasion to modernize the company's logo. The new design is displayed on the new headquarters facility and is being rolled out to the software and webpages: https://www.energycap.com/

EnergyCAP Academy

The pandemic forced ECI to cancel its popular national Catalyst training conference in April, in addition to other in-person training opportunities. In quick response, the company created EnergyCAP Academy, a collection of online training courses that EnergyCAP users can complete at their own pace.

The EnergyCAP Academy courses are an easy and convenient way for users to develop EnergyCAP Version 7 skills and earn Professional Development Hours (PDH).

After a two-year effort to upgrade and certify software, policies, testing protocols, cloud hosting environment, internal networks, and even building physical security, EnergyCAP is now the only energy information software in its class to be listed in the FedRAMP Marketplace.

The Marketplace listing, in conjunction with a GSA contract, makes it easier than ever for federal agencies and other publicly funded organizations to license and implement EnergyCAP.

Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)

ECI launched its Bill CAPture utility bill process service in 2015, and the scope of available services has grown considerably over the past five years.

Our beautiful new corporate headquarters is the perfect venue for the next 40 years of innovation and growth."

Aclaró AI’s Carzi Product Helps Increase Car Transactions Amidst COVID-19

MIAMI, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Aclaró AI, the fast-growing startup that specializes in the science of personalized experiences, is helping drivers more easily purchase new vehicles through its new Carzi application. Amidst COVID-19, Carzi is an outstanding tool that help consumers get a granular look at a vehicle that interests them. With that data in hand, customers can obtain the confidence they need to make a purchase.

Encouraging Signs Amidst Economic Uncertainty

COVID-19 has been one of the most disruptive events in recent memory. Yet even among massive medical and financial uncertainty, new car sales have started to bounce back. According to a report from Auto Finance News, we are starting to see increases in new car transaction prices. Since the peak of the crisis in March, we are also starting to see automaker revenue increases for the first time.

The world economy certainly isn't back to pre-COVID levels, yet these numbers signal hope for automakers in these troubling times. Consumers throughout the world are more likely to invest in a new vehicle. That being said, these consumers are still being extremely cautious. They want to make sure that they are getting a high-quality vehicle at the most competitive prices.

Aclaró's New Carzi Product: Creating Substantial Value for Consumers

This is where Aclaró AI comes in. Aclaró AI's new Carzi product was specifically designed to help increase auto sales during these tumultuous times.

Consumers can think of Carzi as their knowledgeable guide to virtually any vehicle on the market today. To put it simply, Carzi provides a wealth of information to the consumer enabling them to check a wide range of facts about a specific vehicle.

For instance, to start, Carzi gives consumers an accurate value of a vehicle. In today's economic climate, most car buyers are being much more cautious. They want to ensure that they aren't overpaying for a vehicle even if they love it. Whether or not the customer decides to negotiate, this price a great starting point.

Along with accurate pricing data, Carzi lets consumers access a vehicle's entire service history. This is a huge benefit for consumers. Instead of jumping from dealer to dealer to retrieve the vehicle's history, Carzi users can obtain all of that data with one touch. Carzi is an essential tool to help buyers avoid vehicles with a poor service history. The complete service information can inform their decision to purchase and empower their negotiations with the seller.

These are just two ways that Carzi provides substantial value to consumers. Living in these trying times, consumers are seeking confidence and security. They want to make sure that they are getting the most value possible - especially when making such a large purchase.

Carzi is yet another Aclaró AI product for both dealerships and consumers. Regardless of market circumstances, Carzi will continue to help auto consumers make better and more informed decisions.

About Aclaró AI

Aclaró AI is a technology company that creates customer-centric software for auto dealerships and auto lenders. Through cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology, Aclaró AI's customers can grow their sales, mitigate their loan risk, obtain a higher return on investment, and grow their bottom lines.

Small and large dealerships take advantage of real-time data and valuable tools to streamline and grow their businesses.

Using Aclaró's Data Lake interfaces ("APIs"), dealerships and developers can now accelerate new application development on the CDK platform. You can think of this new integration as similar to the Apple App Store. The Apple App Store has generated countless apps that have created immeasurable value for Apple users. The Aclaró Data Lake will do the same for CDK users.

The process is seamless and intuitive, giving developers and dealerships the power of Big Data and Aclaró's AI Engines to develop new applications. They will develop fast-to-market solutions that give clients the services and solutions that they need.

Dealers and developers also get access to Aclaró's API engines, which let dealers access opportunities like setting variable pricing.

This integration between CDK and Aclaró is a win-win for dealerships and customers alike. For starters, the new integration enables dealerships to leverage the power of artificial intelligence. CDK can implement APIs that can bring the very best third-party developers to dealerships' doorsteps.

SimpleNexus and MobilityRE Enhance Mobile Integration with Push Notifications, More Powerful Home Search Features

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, has enhanced its integration with MobilityRE with new features that improve the home search experience for borrowers and enable lenders and Realtors to respond more swiftly to borrower requests.

Realtors and LOs are also alerted whenever the asking price of a saved property changes or a new listing hits the market that matches the applicant's search criteria.

"Real-time push notifications allow Realtors and loan officers to proactively assemble loan quotes, schedule home viewings and prepare pre-approval letters, saving customers valuable time in a competitive real estate market and ultimately converting more opportunities into closed loans," said SimpleNexus CEO Matt Hansen. "It's a win for everyone involved."

The enhanced integration also adds a filter to the home search experience that enables users to specify their preference for properties close to nightlife, public transportation and other "lifestyle" features, then view matching neighborhoods on a visual heatmap.

"The integration of MobilityRE and SimpleNexus brings together two award-winning technologies that empower lenders to capitalize on the central role of mobile devices in today's homebuying process," said MobilityRE CEO and Founder Ben Teerlink. "We're pleased to make this combined offering even more powerful with new features that give originators a serious edge when it comes to retaining prospects and closing deals."

Voice Biometrics Shaping Up as Major Choice for Security and Healthcare

EDISON, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- Voice biometrics is shaping up as a major choice for security and healthcare in 2020. For example, Kaizen Secure Voiz (KSV), a respected leader in the voice biometrics industry, services a leading national security firm employing hundreds with more than 50% mobile guards in the field.

These personnel are spread throughout many organizations all over the nation. Mobile staff report to work in varying and decentralized locations. Another customer KSV services is an overseas hospital employing a workforce of hundreds of doctors and healthcare workers, more than 75% are mobile in the field. These employees are spread throughout their primary healthcare facilities and all over their country often visiting patients.

Keeping track of staff working in decentralized locations and hours is a laborious and time-consuming task. Web-based timecard submissions are not feasible for mobile workers who have no immediate access to the internet. To effectively manage and track these widely-dispersed personnel, the security firm and hospital rely on KSV's IVR-based voice biometric time and attendance system.

This workforce management tool has been an efficiency breakthrough for KSV customers, reducing labor costs, improving data accuracy and speeding up the payroll process. It is also a system highly valued by mobile staffers for its outstanding level of convenience that enables them to report their hours from anywhere and anytime.

To record and submit their working hours, customers mobile employees simply dial a toll-free number to access the IVR system. When prompted by voice cues, callers speak out their pass phrase (language and text independent) under 10 seconds. This IVR is preprogrammed to automatically understand their deployment location and time zone and update the same to the client's backend systems.

Call Centers are another industry using KSV's patented advanced authentication technologies. This is a low cost, more efficient and secure method for call centers to verify caller identity. A caller's voice password is set passively. When they call in again, they use natural speech for authentication, this provides significant time savings and allows representatives to focus on the higher-value tasks rather than the verification process, while also providing convenience for the caller.

"An enterprise can very easily adopt Kaizen Secure Voiz voice biometric product lineup when a customer reaches out to their contact center for any service or you can ask for explicit consent from customers and proactively enroll them," states Ashok Krish, President of Kaizen Secure Voiz. "It's user-friendly, safer, cost-effective and with user education can help one overcome any challenges faced."

KSV's patented voice biometrics & speech analytics software has also made contactless authentication possible without having to place hands anywhere near a scanner or take off face masks now required in public as a safety precaution. The technology allows enterprises to assess the nature of a transaction and determine which authentication levels are needed to successfully authorize a purchase helping to also reduce identity thefts. It uses the power of voice biometrics to automatically recognize a speaker by voice and to search for a specific speaker in an archive of speech records. KSV's advanced technology allows verification of the caller by his/her voice against thousands of voiceprints.

"Voice biometrics is emerging as a solution for AI-based behavior security, tracking and composite risk-based authentication," says Krish. KSV has developed advanced technologies to automatically extract the maximum amount of valuable information from spoken speech to identify, verify a user and provide analytics such as gender and age estimation as part of its speech data mining portfolio.

"Kaizen Secure Voice is committed to improving contactless biometrics security for use both from a technological advantage point and as a safety precaution during these uncertain times and in the future," adds Krish.

Independent, Third-Party Analysis Shows SimpleNexus Digital Mortgage Platform Delivers 9X ROI

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today released key findings from an independent, third-party analysis quantifying mortgage lenders' monetary return on investment (ROI) in SimpleNexus. The findings validate that lenders using SimpleNexus consistently produce more loans and spend less in per-loan operational expenses thanks to the platform's built-in efficiencies.

Methodology

The ROI study was conducted by Jacksonville, Florida-based MarketWise Advisors (MWA), an independent consulting and advisory firm that assists banks, credit unions and independent mortgage companies across North America with system selection, due diligence, data/analytics and benchmarking. MWA developed a survey and analyzed responses from 40 SimpleNexus customers. The sample set had used SimpleNexus for an average of over two years at the time of the study and reported using SimpleNexus for an average of 80.3% of total loan originations.

Key Findings
* Participants reported an average ROI of 9.31, meaning that SimpleNexus' positive impact on lender revenues outweighed the cost of using the platform by more than nine times.
* Lenders reported an average 12.85% increase in inbound leads/referrals as a result of using SimpleNexus tools that help originators build stronger relationships and larger pipelines with referral partners.
* Loan officers' average application conversion rate improved by 13.16% as a result of using SimpleNexus, allowing those loan officers to close an average of 6.32 additional loans per year.
* The additional loan closings created an average of $3,159 per loan officer per year for the organization in additional net income.
* Lenders using SimpleNexus compressed loan processing time by an average of 1.49 days.
* Overall, lenders saved an average of $258.36 per loan in operational costs by spending fewer hours originating and processing mortgage loans thanks to SimpleNexus' ability to keep borrowers, real estate agents and loan originators connected throughout the loan process.

"From day one, SimpleNexus has focused on providing intuitive technology that enhances efficiency, profitability and the borrower experience. Now we can quantify those benefits," said SimpleNexus Co-founder Ben Miller. "In a bold act of transparency, we invited a third-party firm to quantify the ROI leading lenders across the industry have experienced firsthand. Our current customers and prospects deserve to know the value of investing in SimpleNexus."

HONG KONG /ScoopCloud/ -- In exciting for the company, FlexClip, a browser-based video making product from PearlMountain, has reported a 400% user growth for a total of 330k monthly active users over the last year. This trend continues to grow.

For those unfamiliar with FlexClip, the product was first launched by Hong Kong-based company PearlMountain in January 2019. In less than two years, FlexClip has seen a phenomenal growth of its metrics, driven by continued improvements of its user experience and functional performance. This growth in a quite competitive space, is a reflection of the value FlexClip delivers.

Presto Health is a last-mile delivery platform built specifically for a variety of use cases in healthcare and will launch starting with prescription delivery.

"We built an asset-light, ultra-scalable platform with profitable margins - something unheard of in this space.

Patients in the service area will have the option to have their medication delivered the same day following discharge from the hospital, a telemedicine visit, primary care visit, visit to the ER, urgent care or a clinic.

We get to help shape and direct our delivery partner, improve the local economy with job creation and help Lafayette diversify further into the healthcare and technology industries," said Cian Robinson, Executive Director of Innovation, Research, and Real Estate Investments for Lafayette General Health Systems.
