Tavant Integrates TOUCHLESS AI with Dark Matter’s Empower LOS to Automate Mortgage Underwriting

Quick Summary

Tavant has integrated its TOUCHLESS AI Mortgage Automation platform with Dark Matter Technologies' Empower LOS. This partnership enables lenders to utilize AI-driven loan decisioning to streamline underwriting, reduce costs per loan, and accelerate approval timelines through exception-based processing and automated document classification.

How Does TOUCHLESS AI Mortgage Automation Improve Lending Efficiency?

The integration of TOUCHLESS AI Mortgage Automation into the Empower LOS ecosystem allows lenders to replace manual, repetitive tasks with intelligent data extraction and automated comprehension. By leveraging agentic AI workflows, the platform handles the heavy lifting of document classification and pre-close quality checks, which significantly reduces workflow fragmentation.

• Reduced cost per loan by minimizing manual intervention.
• Scalable loan production without increasing operational headcount.
• Improved data accuracy through standardized AI-powered validation.

“Tavant is focused on helping lenders transform mortgage operations with classical, generative and agentic AI-based automation that delivers measurable efficiency, higher levels of operational productivity and a far better borrower experience,” said Mohammad Rashid, head of fintech products, Tavant.

What Are the Benefits for Mortgage Borrowers?

While lenders gain operational speed, the end borrower sees a direct impact on the loan approval experience. The use of TOUCHLESS AI Mortgage Automation ensures that documentation requests are minimized and loan timelines become more transparent and predictable. By automating the mortgage lifecycle stages, the system eliminates the traditional bottlenecks associated with manual underwriting handoffs.

• Faster approval times due to automated decisioning engines.
• Fewer documentation requests via intelligent data extraction.
• Enhanced loan quality reducing the risk of last-minute closing delays.

“We designed Empower as an open platform so partners can connect their best ideas directly to our lenders. Tavant's TOUCHLESS integration is a strong example of the innovation an open platform makes possible, giving lenders more ways to automate and close faster,” said Vikas Rao, chief executive officer at Dark Matter.

FF NEWS TAKE:

This integration of TOUCHLESS AI Mortgage Automation into Dark Matter's Empower LOS is a significant move toward the "lights-out" processing goal in mortgage tech. By embedding agentic AI directly into a major LOS, Tavant and Dark Matter are moving the needle from simple OCR to autonomous decision-making. This is a vital evolution for lenders facing margin pressure who must scale without adding expensive human overhead.
