🌟 A big thank you to Matt Carter and Inman for including TidalWave in your piece on AI's growing role in the mortgage industry, and highlighting innovative companies like Figure using AI to streamline document reviews for HELOCs.

🌊 SOLO by TidalWave, A Purpose-Built AI Agent in Financial Services 🌊 At TidalWave we believe in the power of purpose-built AI to revolutionize financial services. Our mission? To streamline the loan underwriting process, making it more equitable and efficient for both lenders and borrowers. This year, we proudly launched SOLO, our first AI copilot underwriting engine. SOLO integrates directly with Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac's automated underwriting systems, handling pre-approvals with ease. Already working with two customers, SOLO acts as a copilot, helping borrowers and lenders navigate the complexities of the origination process, and is designed to eventually cover the entire journey through closing. What sets us apart is that we’re not just another chatbot. We are a purpose-built LLM agent, executing tasks based on human instructions with minimal oversight, driving greater efficiency while staying compliant. Our approach avoids common LLM pitfalls, like unreliable task handling, by enhancing robustness through model-agnostic systems and specialized mortgage underwriting knowledge. This ensures higher success rates for our AI agents in financial services. We're just getting started. The future of financial services is bright, and with AI as a driving force, we’re committed to reshaping it for the better. #AI #Fintech #mortgage #startups #Underwriting #LLM #Saas #FinancialServices #TidalWaveAI

🚨 Big News from the Fed Today 🚨 With the Federal Reserve announcing its first interest rate cut in years, mortgage demand has surged by 14%. While this may seem like good news, it poses a serious challenge for lenders who are already understaffed and relying on outdated processes. As someone who’s spent years in the mortgage industry, I’ve been consistently shocked by the inefficiencies in scaling up and down based on market conditions. When rates drop, lenders are suddenly overwhelmed by demand, leading to errors, delays, and skyrocketing costs just to keep up. This is where TidalWave steps in. Our AI-powered solution, SOLO™, was built to address exactly this issue. By integrating directly with Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac's automated underwriting systems, SOLO™ reduces the need for human intervention, streamlines the loan process, and cuts costs—while helping lenders keep up with demand during rate changes. Our goal? To create a more equitable and efficient mortgage origination process for everyone—borrowers, lenders, and underwriters alike. We’re already seeing great traction with two beta clients, and we’re just getting started. With AI on their side, lenders can stay nimble, even in times of fluctuating rates, without constantly worrying about staffing challenges. It’s time to bring efficiency, speed, and scalability to mortgage lending. 💼🏡 #AI #mortgagetech #fintech #lending #innovation #proptech #mortgage #interestrates #homebuyers

🚀 Founder Mode vs. Manager Mode? Why Not Both? 🚀 I sat down with Sam Blum at Inc. Magazine about Paul Graham's thought-provoking essay on "Founder Mode" and its impact on startup management. It's clear that this conversation is resonating across the tech world, with opinions flying in every direction. At TidalWave we've found that a balanced approach works best. While the hands-on, deeply involved nature of founder mode can be powerful, it’s equally important to trust and delegate. I believe in what I call the "divide and conquer" strategy: hiring exceptional people who excel in areas where you may not, and allowing them to shine. 📈 Paul Graham’s essay emphasizes a truth many founders know but don't always articulate: sometimes, being too hands-off isn’t the answer. However, that doesn’t mean we should swing entirely in the opposite direction. There’s wisdom in recognizing when to be in founder mode—driving vision, making key decisions—and when to step back and let great hires do what they do best. As startups grow, the needs evolve, and so should the leadership approach. It's not about choosing sides between founder mode and manager mode but about understanding the ebb and flow of your company’s journey and adapting your role accordingly. After all, isn't that what great leadership is all about? ⚖️ What are your thoughts on this? How do you balance founder and manager modes in your leadership style?

50 years ago, women in USA couldnot open a banking account without a male co-signer. 8 brave visionary women change the history by establishing their own Women's Bank. Carol Green, Judi Wagner, LaRae Orullian, Gail Schoettler, Wendy Davis, Joy Burns, Beverly Martinez, and Edna Mosely collectively founded the bank with $1,000 each. On July 14, 1978, The Women's Bank opened its doors in downtown Denver, with people lining up to make deposits. Remarkably, the first day's deposits surpassed $1 million, marking a significant turn in history. We wouldn’t be where we are without those brave visionary women. Join them, support each other, make change for a better future.
