Blend Integrates with Black Knight's LoanSphere Empower to Deliver Comprehensive Digital Mortgage Experience

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Blend, a Silicon Valley technology company propelling consumer lending into the digital age, today announced an integration with the LoanSphere Empower loan origination system offered by Black Knight, Inc. Lenders using Empower will be able to easily deploy the Blend platform, creating a completely digitized mortgage experience that is intuitive for the borrower and allows them to complete a loan application and get approved much more quickly.

In turn, lenders receive a more complete loan file that seamlessly flows into Empower, streamlining workflows and improving time-to-close metrics. Blend's direct-from-source data and comprehensive audit logs help reduce errors in the mortgage process, improve data integrity, and support lender compliance.

"We strive to make the mortgage process quicker and easier for both lenders and borrowers," said Rich Gagliano, president of Black Knight's Origination Technologies division. "Blend and Black Knight share a similar vision for the future of morgages, and the simplified implementation process as part of this integration will be a game-changer for our joint customers."

Lenders will be able to take advantage of both systems with an out-of-the-box Blend deployment for Empower users.

"At Blend, our mission is to power a frictionless, compliant, and more accessible consumer lending ecosystem," said Nima Ghamsari, CEO and co-founder of Blend. "Our work with Black Knight is helping us move the mortgage industry forward, with a lights-out integration approach that accelerates time-to-market, regardless of the size of the lender."
