Down Payment Resource makes HousingWire’s 2026 Mortgage Tech100 list for expanding access to homeownership

The HW Tech100 recognizes the most innovative and impactful technology companies serving the mortgage industry

ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 4, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Down Payment Resource (DPR), the housing industry’s leading technology for connecting homebuyers with down payment programs, has been named to HousingWire’s 2026 Mortgage Tech100 list. DPR first appeared on the HousingWire Tech100 list in 2017.

DPR connects lenders, real estate professionals and consumers with the nation’s more than 2,600 homebuyer programs, helping borrowers overcome affordability barriers and achieve sustainable homeownership. In January, DPR released new insights from its Q4 2025 Homeownership Program Index, identifying more than 2,600 homebuyer programs nationwide — a 6% year-over-year increase — underscoring the role these programs continue to play as affordability pressures persist. DPR also expanded adoption of its lender tools, helping teams integrate program eligibility into everyday workflows, reducing manual research and improving borrower outcomes.

DPR’s product suite includes the DPA Directory, a centralized hub that allows product and capital markets teams to evaluate and select homebuyer programs nationwide. The Loan Officer Portal automatically matches borrowers to company-approved programs, while the Underwriter Portal provides real-time access to eligibility criteria, overlays and documentation requirements. DPR’s Consumer Portal offers personalized landing pages that allow homebuyers to explore program options early, generating better-prepared leads for lenders and real estate partners.

By integrating with the Encompass® LOS, DPR eliminates the need for manual program research and reduces friction between origination and underwriting. Loan officers gain instant visibility into benefit amounts, eligibility criteria and approval workflows, while selected programs flow seamlessly downstream. By automating DPA discovery and compliance, DPR enables lenders to confidently offer more financing options, improve borrower satisfaction and expand market reach.

Beyond origination, DPR delivers data-driven insights that help lenders identify missed opportunities. Its Declined Loan Analysis applies DPR’s nationwide program database to lenders’ declined applications, revealing how many could have been approved with the right support. Recent analyses show that up to 40% of declined purchase loans may have been eligible for assistance, translating into a potential 2% to 5% lift in production without additional marketing spend. On average, each declined borrower qualified for 10 potential programs, underscoring that awareness, not access, is often the primary barrier.

“As affordability pressures persist nationwide, down payment programs continue to play a critical role in helping borrowers bridge the gap to homeownership,” said Rob Chrane, founder and CEO of Down Payment Resource. “Our focus is on making these programs easy to find, easy to use and fully embedded into lending workflows so lenders can turn qualified demand into sustainable homeownership opportunities. We’re honored to be recognized by HousingWire for the impact our technology is making.”

Dark Matter Technologies named to HousingWire’s 2026 Mortgage Tech100 list for AI-supported, scalable mortgage platforms

The Tech100 honors technology organizations advancing efficiency, automation and connectivity across housing finance

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Feb. 4, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Dark Matter Technologies (Dark Matter®), an innovative leader in mortgage technology, today announced it has been named to HousingWire’s 2026 Mortgage Tech100 list, recognizing companies whose technology solutions are shaping the future of the mortgage industry. This marks the company’s third appearance on the Tech100 list.

Image caption: Dark Matter Technologies.

Dark Matter’s recognition reflects continued momentum across its open, scalable technology stack, led by the Empower® loan origination system (LOS), Aiva® artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities and the Elevate℠ Loan Servicing Solution. Together, these platforms help lenders and servicers reduce manual effort, improve data accuracy and scale operations more efficiently in a rapidly evolving market.

The Empower LOS unifies loan origination, point-of-sale and exception-based process automation within a single configurable platform. Fully integrated borrower, broker and loan officer POS’s provide real-time access to shared data, enabling faster communication and greater transparency throughout the loan lifecycle. Empower’s open architecture and Developer Platform enable financial institutions to connect, embed, or extend tools via secure APIs, eliminating vendor bottlenecks and accelerating innovation.

Embedded directly within the Empower platform, Aiva powers the system’s automation and document intelligence capabilities. When lenders deploy Empower, they gain access to Aiva’s ability to extract, validate and structure data from loan documents inside the LOS using deterministic, explainable rules. This embedded approach reduces manual review, improves data quality and allows teams to focus on exception handling and borrower engagement rather than repetitive processing tasks.

Alongside the Empower LOS, Dark Matter’s stack includes the Elevate Loan Servicing Solution, which has gained momentum through recent client signings and product enhancements. Designed to support the full servicing lifecycle, Elevate delivers configurable workflows, seamless data continuity and the flexibility to scale as portfolios and market conditions change. By extending Dark Matter’s automation-first approach into servicing, Elevate helps organizations strengthen borrower relationships while maintaining operational efficiency and control.

“Being named to HousingWire’s Tech100 list again reflects our focus on building open, intelligent platforms that remove friction from mortgage operations,” said Sean Dugan, CEO of Dark Matter Technologies. “By combining automation, AI and interoperability across origination and servicing, we help our clients move faster, operate more efficiently and deliver better experiences for borrowers.”

Dark Matter also supports seamless collaboration across the mortgage ecosystem through the Exchange℠ Service Network, a standardized marketplace that enables lenders, servicers and settlement service providers to exchange data through secure APIs. Integrated with major systems of record, the Exchange Service Network centralizes ordering, data aggregation and product selection while reducing redundant data entry and system complexity.

“[These companies are] building technology that solves core industry challenges, from operational efficiency to better consumer experiences, and setting a higher standard for what innovation in housing truly looks like,” said Sarah Wheeler, Editor-in-Chief at HousingWire.

Friday Harbor named to HousingWire’s 2026 Tech100 Mortgage list for advancing AI pre-underwriting

Earlier underwriting insight helps lenders deliver cleaner files and faster execution

SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 3, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Friday Harbor has been named to HousingWire’s 2026 Tech100 Mortgage list, an award that recognizes the most innovative technology companies shaping the future of mortgage lending. Friday Harbor was selected for advancing the use of artificial intelligence to bring underwriting insight earlier in the loan lifecycle, helping lenders surface and resolve potential issues before files reach final underwriting. Friday Harbor’s approach has been adopted by approximately 25 lenders, including two of the top 10 independent mortgage banks.

Image caption: Friday Harbor logo.

After completing a $6 million seed funding round last April, Friday Harbor released a series of platform features designed to address common sources of underwriting conditions and investor repurchase risk. These include an integration with Fannie Mae’s Income Calculator, AI review of appraisal files and photos and the ability to apply lender and investor underwriting overlays. To support enterprise deployment, Friday Harbor also introduced a direct integration with Encompass® from ICE Mortgage Technology, along with an open API framework that simplifies custom integrations.

“Underwriting is most effective when it happens before risk and defects are embedded in the file,” said Theo Ellis, co-founder and CEO of Friday Harbor. “By applying underwriting standards earlier in origination, lenders reduce rework, shorten clear-to-close timelines and deliver stronger execution downstream.”

“The 2026 Tech100 honorees represent the companies pushing housing forward in real, measurable ways,” said Sarah Wheeler, editor-in-chief at HousingWire. “They’re building technology that solves core industry challenges, from operational efficiency to better consumer experiences, and setting a higher standard for what innovation in housing truly looks like.”

Friday Harbor’s AI pre-underwriting platform analyzes borrower documents, appraisals and income calculations against investor guidelines and lender overlays as loan files are assembled, allowing lenders to identify and resolve potential issues before files reach final underwriting. This approach helps teams deliver cleaner files, achieve fewer underwriting touches and improve productivity across production and fulfillment teams.

Launched in 2013, HousingWire’s Tech100 award spotlights the most innovative and impactful tech organizations in housing. The award is broken into two categories: the Tech100 Mortgage Award recognizes technology firms that are revolutionizing the mortgage process, while the Tech100 Real Estate Award recognizes tech companies that are changing the home sales process.

Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn Named One of America’s Five Most Iconic Buffets by Fox News

OWENSBORO, Ky., Jan. 30, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn has been recognized as one of America’s five most iconic buffets in a recent Fox News feature highlighting the nation’s premier all-you-can-eat dining destinations. The family-owned restaurant joins an elite group that includes renowned establishments from Las Vegas, Pennsylvania, Louisiana and Rhode Island.

Photo Caption: Enjoy a little BBQ Magic at the Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn.

The Fox News article places Moonlite alongside such celebrated venues as Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and Shady Maple Smorgasbord in Pennsylvania, praising the Owensboro institution for its slow-cooked barbecued mutton and deep-rooted Western Kentucky tradition.

Operating since 1963, Moonlite has earned widespread acclaim for its signature mutton preparation, which takes 15 hours to slow-smoke over hickory wood. The regional specialty has helped establish Owensboro as a barbecue destination and showcases the unique culinary heritage of Western Kentucky.

“At Moonlite, we’re a buffet for everyone. You’ll find farmers sitting next to teachers, coal miners alongside congressmen, and millionaires breaking bread with their neighbors. That’s what real community looks like,” Patrick Bosley, co-owner, Moonlite Bar-B-Que, says.

Photo caption: Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn Named One of America’s Five Most Iconic Buffets.

This recognition comes on the heels of additional national attention, with “Family Destinations Guide” declaring Moonlite “so good, it’s worth a road trip” in their recent feature. The publication praised the restaurant’s extensive buffet, traditional Kentucky recipes including burgoo, and the family’s dedication to maintaining quality standards over six decades of operation.

“We pride ourselves on remaining authentic. In a world that’s always chasing the next trend, we’re committed to the traditions that have made us who we are for generations,” Bosley says.

The Bosley family, which has owned and operated Moonlite since its founding by Hugh and Catherine Bosley, continues to uphold the traditions that have made the restaurant a beloved institution. What began as a modest 30-seat operation has grown into a destination capable of serving hundreds of guests while maintaining the personal touch and commitment to excellence that built its reputation.

Photo caption: Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn is a family-owned restaurant in Owensboro, Kentucky.

Moonlite’s buffet features an array of smoked meats including the signature mutton, pork, ribs, and chicken, complemented by traditional Southern sides such as creamy mac and cheese, tangy coleslaw, baked beans studded with barbecue and fresh cornbread. The restaurant’s distinctive “dip” — a vinegar-based sauce used to baste meats during smoking — has become legendary in its own right.

“In an age of fast food, Moonlite stands out because we still cook—real food, made the way grandma used to make it. There’s no shortcut to quality, and there never will be,” Bosley says.

ABOUT MOONLITE BAR-B-Q INN

Dr. Harold Siegel Named #1 Traction Alopecia Hair Transplant Doctor in the U.S. for 2026

'Surgeon to the Stars' and Natural Transplants Senior Physician Tops National Ranking for Expertise in Ethnic Hair Restoration and HUE Method Excellence

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 27, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Dr. Harold Siegel, board-certified Senior Physician at Natural Transplants, Hair Restoration Clinic, has been named the number one surgeon on the prestigious list of Best Traction Alopecia Hair Transplant Doctors In The United States In 2026. This distinction recognizes Dr. Siegel as a premier authority in the industry, celebrating his mastery in delivering permanent solutions for complex hair loss conditions.

Image caption: Image caption: Dr Harold Siegel of Natural Transplants.

Traction Alopecia, a form of hair loss caused by constant tension on the hair follicles from tight hairstyles, requires specialized care to ensure graft survival and natural aesthetics. As the demand for effective Traction Alopecia Hair Transplant procedures grows, Dr. Siegel has emerged as the industry standard-bearer, particularly for his skill with textured hair and edge restoration.

A TITAN IN HAIR RESTORATION

Dr. Siegel brings a distinguished medical background to his Natural Transplants, including over a decade dedicated exclusively to hair restoration and 20 years of medical experience. A graduate of Nova Southeastern University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from the University of Florida, Dr. Siegel’s journey into hair restoration began under the mentorship of Dr. Matt Huebner, leading him to master the exclusive HUE (High-Yield Unit Extraction®) Method. This elite technique allows Dr. Siegel to move maximum hair density in a single session, providing life-changing coverage for both men and women.

His reputation for surgical excellence and discretion has earned him the title “surgeon to the stars,” notably chosen by multi-platinum, Grammy award-winning producer Timbaland for his own restoration journey.

EMPATHY MEETS PRECISION

Unlike many in his field, Dr. Siegel’s approach is defined by deep personal empathy because he has undergone hair transplants himself. This shared experience drives his commitment to delivering natural results for a diverse clientele.

“Being recognized as the top doctor for Traction Alopecia Hair Transplants is a profound honor,” said Dr. Siegel. “I understand the emotional toll hair loss takes because I have been there. My goal is to combine artistic precision with the HUE Method to not just restore hairlines, but to restore confidence. Whether we are treating a celebrity or a mother looking to repair damage from years of braiding, the goal is always the same: undetected, high-density results.”

SETTING THE GOLD STANDARD FOR 2026

The 2026 ranking highlights Dr. Siegel’s success in treating Traction Alopecia, a condition where traditional transplant methods often fail without specific expertise in angling and graft placement. His ability to recreate natural growth patterns in the temple and frontal hairline areas has made Natural Transplants the destination for patients seeking to reverse the effects of mechanical hair loss.

World Fertility Awards Make History as Global Fertility is Projected to Drop in 2026

NEW YORK, N.Y., Jan 20, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The World Fertility Awards (WFAs), produced by pregnantish, the first global, consumer-facing media event dedicated to celebrating the changemakers shaping the future of fertility, took place on December 1, 2025 at the Times Center in New York City. Unlike traditional industry conferences, the event was designed to reach beyond clinical and professional audiences, uniting advocates, clinicians, innovators, industry leaders, and media to spotlight progress, purpose, and possibility in reproductive health.

Image Caption: (L-R): IVI RMA Global doctors, and Jacques Cohen receiving the 2025 Legacy Award.

At a critical inflection point in 2026, when global fertility rates are projected to continue declining (according to Euromonitor, the 2025 rate is at 2.8 children born per woman vs 3.1 a decade ago), the World Fertility Awards brought together seven global regions to elevate voices and leadership to underscore the importance of Assisted Reproductive Technology.

The show’s tagline, “When Science Meets Family, the Possibilities Are Endless,” captured the spirit of the evening: a global community united in recognition of the individuals and organizations advancing care, expanding access, and reshaping how infertility is covered and understood.

Here are the 2025 award recipients and honorees: https://www.worldfertilityawards.com/honorees.

Founded by pregnantish, the award-winning fertility platform, the WFAs were created to meet a long-standing gap in the industry: a public-facing, media-forward event that centers real-world impact and human stories alongside scientific advancement. The evening unfolded in three acts, aligned with pregnantish’s pillars of Access & Awareness, Innovation & Technology, and Equity & Inclusion, honoring those shaping the future of reproductive care.

Since the event, the momentum has continued to grow, reaching millions worldwide through media coverage and digital amplification.

“For years, fertility innovation has been happening quietly, but changing lives every day…” said Andrea Syrtash, Founder of pregnantish and The World Fertility Awards. “At pregnantish, we know that when diverse perspectives come together, the landscape shifts.”

Dr. Thomas Molinaro, Chief Medical Officer of IVI RMA North America, early supporters of the WFAs, emphasized the importance of global collaboration in fertility care: “The World Fertility Awards unite visionaries who transform dreams into families. At IVI RMA, we honor this global movement — advancing science, equity, and hope so every patient can access the care they deserve.”

A defining aspect of the show was its focus on underrepresented topics and voices. One spotlight centered on male fertility, reinforcing the message that infertility is not solely a women’s issue.

With the support of Fellow and feedback from the global WFA adjudicators, the WFAs honored fitness and lifestyle influencer, Brian Mazza, with “The Champion for Male Fertility Advocacy Award”.

Molly Eaton, Fellow’s VP of Sales, shared, “Fellow supports the World Fertility Awards to champion action on male factor fertility, providing diagnostic-grade mail-in semen analysis that empowers men to test earlier and access answers from home.”

The evening also featured a powerful Legacy segment, honoring pioneers whose work transformed fertility care, including Professor Antonio Pellicer, founder of IVI RMA Global, which now operates more than 200 clinics worldwide; Jacques Cohen, Nobel Prize–winning embryologist whose laboratory breakthroughs, including ICSI, revolutionized IVF; and Elizabeth Jordan Carr, the first IVF baby born in the United States.

Additional standout moments included inspirational acceptance speeches from astronaut Kellie Gerardi, and social media star and singer, Loren Rosko, both long-time fertility advocates who were invited to the event prior to their pregnancies, and who shared messages of hope following years of struggle.

Another celebrated moment of the evening was “Fertility Center,” a satirical play on ESPN’s SportsCenter, hosted by broadcaster and speaker Jenna Wolfe, and kicked off on video by ESPN’s Nicole Briscoe. The segment highlighted professional athletes using their platforms to elevate infertility, and featured appearances by Olympic medalists and sports stars Carli Lloyd, Brittany Brown, Ken Daneyko, Samantha and Kyle Busch, Ali Riley, and Tara Lipinski, underscoring the growing role of athletes in advancing awareness and advocacy in reproductive health.

Image Caption: (L-R): Astronaut and WFA honoree Kellie Gerardi, and TV personality & speaker Jenna Wolfe.

By design, the World Fertility Awards blurred the line between science, storytelling, and social impact — redefining how fertility innovation is celebrated and shared with the world.

As the first consumer-facing media event of its kind, the World Fertility Awards signal a new era: one where fertility conversations are inclusive, visible, and grounded in both science and humanity.

This year’s landmark event will take place on Dec 9, 2026.

HoloTwin Named TechRadar Pro CES Picks Award 2026 Winner for Enterprise and Smart Infrastructure Innovation

Independent editorial recognition at CES 2026 highlights practical application of AI-driven digital twin technology for multi-vendor infrastructure operations

LAS VEGAS, Nev., Jan. 13, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — HoloTwin, an AI-driven digital twin software company focused on simplifying the operation of complex, multi-vendor infrastructure environments, today announced that it has been named a TechRadar Pro CES Picks Award 2026 winner in the category of Enterprise and Smart Infrastructure Innovation.

Image caption: HoloTwin receives the CES Picks 2026 Award, recognizing innovation in digital twin technology.

The CES Picks Awards are presented by TechRadar Pro and Future plc and recognize technologies showcased at CES that demonstrate practical value, innovation, and relevance for business and infrastructure operators. Winners are selected by an independent editorial panel and featured across TechRadar Pro’s editorial and digital channels.

“One of the hardest challenges in building HoloTwin was balancing a powerful visual experience with a reliable IT backend and AI that adds value without overwhelming users,” said Joy Shah, Chief Architect at HoloTwin. “We intentionally designed the platform to operate through a standard web browser rather than a proprietary application. That approach simplifies deployment and access across large organizations, while ensuring that what users see on screen is tightly connected to dependable backend systems and meaningful AI insight. The goal was always usability at scale, not complexity.”

HoloTwin was recognized for its ability to unify fragmented infrastructure systems into a single operational control layer, allowing organizations to manage environments composed of multiple vendors, platforms, and technologies through one interface.

“HoloTwin combines AI with a real-time digital twin so teams can identify issues earlier and coordinate response faster across systems that were never designed to work together,” said Darshan Sedani, Co-Founder of HoloTwin. “This recognition reflects the importance of technology that is built for real operational conditions rather than theoretical models. Our focus has always been on making complex infrastructure environments easier to understand and operate on a day-to-day basis.”

Image caption: HoloTwin Named TechRadar Pro CES Picks Award Winner for Enterprise and Smart Infrastructure Innovation.

“Most organizations struggle not because they lack data, but because their data is spread across disconnected systems,” said Teodros Gessesse, Co-Founder of HoloTwin. “HoloTwin was built to reduce that fragmentation by providing one operational view across vendors, domains, and teams. Recognition at CES reinforces the relevance of simplifying infrastructure operations and improving coordination across complex environments.”

HoloTwin consolidates live data from facilities, networks, utilities, sensors, security systems, and operational platforms into a spatially accurate digital twin that reflects how infrastructure exists in the real world. Rather than switching between vendor-specific dashboards, teams collaborate within a single interface that provides context, visibility, and coordinated response.

The platform is designed to work alongside existing systems, enabling organizations to preserve prior investments while gaining a unified operational layer. HoloTwin supports use cases across enterprise and smart infrastructure environments, including industrial monitoring, campus and facility management, live venue operations, and multi-system incident response.

As a CES Picks Award winner, HoloTwin is expected to be featured across TechRadar Pro editorial coverage, newsletters, and promotional channels in the coming weeks.

The Light Committee Earns Yelp and Three Best Rated Awards in 2025

People Love Us on Yelp Award and Three Best Rated Commercial Photographer Award Add to Award Streak for the Studio

LOS ANGELES, Calif., Dec. 15, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The Light Committee, a photography studio that provides some of the best headshots in Los Angeles has earned the “People Love Us On Yelp” badge and an award from Three Best Rated for Commercial Photographer. Both awards were earned in 2025 and add to many other awards earned by the studio.

Image caption: The Light Committee.

The Yelp award is presented as a window cling mailed to businesses that have earned it, commonly for receiving a high volume of positive reviews. Three Best Rated informs businesses by email that they have earned the award. The Light Committee has earned the Yelp award consecutive years since 2023 and the Three Best Rated award consecutively since 2022.

In addition, currently, the studio has more five-star Google reviews than any other commercial headshot studio in Los Angeles, exceeding 500 such star-ratings. The studio had also earned the Expertise.com award for best portrait photographers in Los Angeles, 2019-2024, before the award ended for portrait photographers in 2025.

PROVIDING ACTOR HEADSHOTS IN LOS ANGELES

The Light Committee provides headshot photography for actors, whether they need a refreshed shot to submit for a casting or a full portfolio update. As such, currently sessions range from one look for $150 to a premium session covering five looks for $250.

The studio offers online booking for actor headshots on the website. On the website, aspiring actors can preview plenty of example headshots, such as commercial looks and theatrical looks for men and women. They can find out details on what’s included in a session and how a session works. This way, clients are not forced to chase down the photographer to get answers.

DELIVERING CORPORATE HEADSHOTS IN LOS ANGELES

For corporate headshots, also known as professional headshots or business headshots, the studio offers the same series of sessions. They include one look, two looks, or five looks. The two-look session offers an add-on to make it three looks. Rates range from $150 to $250, making The Light Committee one of the most affordable headshot studios in Los Angeles.

As with other headshot sessions, clients can review example headshots to know that, while prices are highly competitive, image quality rivals any other headshot studio in LA or beyond. As a result, clients realize great value.

Mobile headshot services are also offered. This is where the photographer brings a mobile studio to an office location to provide headshots. This way, the business team can stay productive working and jump into a quick headshot session right at the office, before conveniently returning to work.

CREATE YOUR MODEL DIGITALS WITH A PHOTOGRAPHER IN LOS ANGELES

The third most popular photography session is for aspiring models to get model digitals to use to submit to modeling agencies throughout Los Angeles. In this session, the general shots include headshots, profile headshots, full body shots, profile full body shots, and some posed full body and half body shots. Up to two looks are offered so models can, for example, have one look in form-fitting clothes as most agencies prefer, and a second set of shots in a swimsuit for women or shirtless for men.

Other sessions offered include medical residency headshots, child actor headshots, and lifestyle photography sessions such as for dating profile photos, senior portraits, or other one-on-one photography sessions.

ABOUT THE LIGHT COMMITTEE

The Light Committee is an award-winning headshot photography studio located at 335 N Brand Blvd, Ste 250, Glendale, CA, 91203, within the greater Los Angeles area and just around 10 miles north of downtown LA. Rafael, the headshot photographer, strives to deliver value by providing a combination of affordable headshots with some of the highest quality results in LA or beyond.

His leadership in unifying RON, eSignature, IPEN, and mobile notarization within a single platform has further helped lenders and title partners accelerate closings while maintaining the highest levels of compliance and borrower trust.

Bisaillon’s guidance has also been instrumental to the success of NotaryCam’s Done For You program, which is designed to minimize disruption and make eClosings accessible through lenders’ title partners. His contributions to behind-the-scenes processes such as eNote creation and registration have enhanced efficiency, introduced innovative solutions, and ensured that lenders and title partners alike experience a seamless transition into electronic closings.

“The mortgage and title industries are at a turning point. Connecting systems, people, and data in ways that drive real efficiency and trust is critical,” said Bisaillon. “It’s a privilege to receive recognition for all that our team at NotaryCam continues to accomplish as we focus on developing technology that meets regulatory standards while simplifying the closing experience for everyone involved.”
