Introduction
Every mortgage file is a mountain of paperwork, from loan applications and tax returns to pay stubs, credit reports, IDs, closing disclosures, and more. On average, a single loan can require 300+ pages of documentation.
For lenders, this volume translates into slower approvals, higher operational costs, and compliance risks if documents are incomplete or mismanaged.
DocVu.AI helps mortgage lenders overcome these challenges by using Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) to power end-to-end mortgage automation—from onboarding and underwriting to funding and loan servicing. By automating data extraction, document classification, and compliance checks, lenders can accelerate approvals, reduce costs, and deliver a smoother borrower experience.
The Role of Intelligent Document Processing in Mortgage
Unlike traditional OCR that only digitizes text, IDP understands the context of mortgage documents. This makes it possible to:
- Recognize different borrower forms.
- Extract key data fields like income, debt, and credit information.
- Cross-validate numbers across multiple documents.
- Ensure files are complete and compliant before underwriting.
