For modern mortgage brokerages

The imperative is to scale.

Indie is the operating layer for mortgage brokerages. It automates the work between application and approval, so your LOs can close more loans and grow their business.

The dilemma

Choice creates complexity.

A broker wins on choice. Every lender has a different portal, guideline set, and submission flow. So the limit on a top producer’s growth isn’t demand. It’s how many loans their operation can carry.

The architecture

One operating layer across every lender.

The point of sale owns the application. The lender owns the underwrite. Indie owns the work between them — from file setup and document review through submission and conditions, across every lender your producers choose.

See it in action

Hand it off.
Keep moving.

Indie works like a teammate you hand files to. It sets up the loan, checks it before it goes to the lender, and keeps conditions moving until they clear.

A new operating model

You stay in the loop.
Not in the weeds.

Files used to move at the speed of whoever had time to open them. Indie keeps every file moving, handling the setup, the review and the condition clearing. Your team supervises from one view, drills into what is stuck, and makes the calls that need a person at the moment they matter.

The result

Your LOs grow faster.
Your operations scale.

Give your top producers a system that can power more closings, and a reason to build their business on your brokerage.

What every recruit is really asking

“Can I grow my business here?”
Indie gives the brokerage a repeatable fulfillment layer, so the answer doesn’t depend on which processor a producer manages to hire.

More loans per LO

The setup, review, and condition work that caps a producer’s volume moves to Indie.

Faster cycle times

Files go to the lender ready the first time, and conditions clear as documents arrive.

A better producer experience

LOs delegate core loan fulfillment functions instead of rebuilding operations around themselves.

Security

Built for borrower data.

Indie is built from the ground up to the highest standards of information security and AI governance.
