Join 150+ financial firms with streamlined, compliant lead pipelines
The "Lead Drought" Problem
Generic leads sourced from broad aggregators fail to satisfy FHA, VA, or conventional mortgage underwriting standards, such as minimum FICO scores and verifiable income documentation
Manual verification of referral fees and kickbacks exposes mortgage brokers to RESPA Section 8 penalties, including fines up to $10,000 per violation
Inconsistent data from multiple sources fragments your borrower pipeline
With 30-year fixed rates exceeding 7%, the cost of unqualified refinance inquiries—often $50-100 per lead—erodes margins in a tightening Federal Reserve environment
Seasonal fluctuations in first-time buyer leads overwhelm manual triage processes
Springtime surges in first-time buyer leads, driven by millennial homeownership rates climbing 5% annually, overwhelm manual triage under HMDA reporting deadlines

They crumble under these pressures, like a flimsy contract in court. AIQ Labs crafts bespoke AI engines from the ground up, scraping targeted sources like real estate listings and credit bureaus, then enriching leads with compliance-checked data.

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Pipeline Precision with AIQ Labs
3x More Qualified Leads in Your Niche
3x More Qualified Leads in Your Niche: Our custom AI models target borrowers matching your exact criteria—FICO scores above 680, DTI under 43%, and verified employment via payroll APIs—delivering leads that convert at 200% above industry benchmarks. Brokers report an average of 45 new closings annually, with 80% from repeat referral networks, without expanding teams.
Bulletproof Compliance from Day One
Bulletproof Compliance from Day One: Built-in safeguards automate TILA-RESPA disclosures and ECOA fair lending checks, reducing CFPB audit risks by 70%. Drawing from our experience defending against 2022 CFPB inquiries, the system flags non-compliant leads—like undisclosed affiliate relationships—instantly, akin to an in-house compliance officer.
Accelerated Closings with Predictive Scoring
Accelerated Closings with Predictive Scoring: AI integrates borrower data from MLS listings and economic indicators to score leads in real-time, prioritizing those with 85%+ close probability within 30 days. This slashes origination time by 25% under TRID timelines, enabling teams to handle 20% more high-value consultations and increase revenue per loan by 15% through upselling rate-lock options.
What Clients Say
""Before AIQ, paid ad leads from Zillow were riddled with applicants below 620 FICO, failing conventional underwriting. Their custom system now sources pre-vetted refinance leads from county recorder data, leading to 28 compliant closings in Q2 2023—our best quarter in years, with zero RESPA flags.""
Sarah Jenkins
Senior Mortgage Loan Officer, Horizon Mortgage Group, Denver CO
""Seamless integration with Ellie Mae's Encompass CRM eliminated low-quality leads; AIQ enriches profiles with IRS Form 4506-T verified income, streamlining first-time buyer pipelines in the Phoenix metro. Our HMDA-reportable velocity jumped 35% since April rollout, closing 15 deals faster than ever.""
Michael Torres
Owner and Principal Broker, Apex Home Loans, Phoenix AZ
""As rates hit 7.5% in late 2023, our PPC lead costs doubled to $120 each, but AIQ's niche targeting for jumbo loans halved acquisition spend while tripling qualified VA refinance inquiries. The RESPA-compliant audit trail prevented a $15K fine during our Q4 CFPB review.""

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead generation ensure compliance with mortgage regulations?
Compliance is woven into our core architecture. We build custom filters that cross-reference leads against TILA, RESPA, and CFPB guidelines, automatically redacting or flagging non-compliant data like undisclosed referral fees. For instance, our system verifies borrower consent for data use and logs every interaction for audit trails. In one deployment for a mid-sized brokerage, this reduced violation risks by 75%, allowing seamless passage through state licensing reviews. Unlike off-the-shelf tools that bolt on compliance post-hoc, ours is proactive, trained on regulatory updates to adapt in real-time.
What sources does the AI pull leads from for mortgage brokers?
We target precise, high-intent channels tailored to mortgages: public real estate databases like Zillow APIs, credit bureau signals for pre-qualifications, and job posting aggregators for income verification. Our custom scrapers avoid generic social media noise, focusing on scenarios like recent home searches or rate shopping behaviors. This yields leads 3x more likely to convert than broad ad networks. For a client specializing in VA loans, we integrated veteran-specific directories, boosting qualified inquiries by 40% within the first month, all while respecting data privacy laws.
How long does it take to build and deploy a custom lead generation system?
From initial consultation to live deployment, our process typically spans 6-8 weeks for most mortgage brokerages. Week 1-2: Deep-dive discovery to map your pipeline. Weeks 3-5: Development of scraping, enrichment, and scoring modules. Weeks 6-7: Integration testing with your CRM and compliance validation. Week 8: Launch with 30 days of monitoring. This timeline is faster than generic platforms because we skip vendor dependencies. A recent project for a refinance-focused firm went live in 5 weeks, immediately generating 120 vetted leads.
Can this system integrate with my existing loan origination software?
Absolutely—seamless integration is our hallmark. We support direct APIs with platforms like Encompass, Calyx, or Black Knight, pushing enriched leads straight into your origination workflow with pre-populated fields for borrower details and risk scores. No manual exports needed. In a case for a 50-employee brokerage, we connected it to their LendingQB system, automating 80% of data entry and cutting processing time from 48 hours to under 2. Our two-way sync ensures updates like loan status flow back, creating a closed-loop pipeline without the integration nightmares of pieced-together tools.
What kind of ROI can mortgage brokers expect from this service?
Brokers typically see ROI within 3-6 months, with an average 4x return on investment. For example, if your setup costs $25,000, expect $100,000+ in additional closings from higher-quality leads—based on industry averages of $5,000 profit per loan. Our systems have delivered 50-70% increases in conversion rates for clients, directly tying to metrics like reduced cost-per-lead (from $150 to $45) and faster cycle times. We provide baseline benchmarks during discovery and track progress via custom KPIs, ensuring measurable wins like 25% revenue uplift in the first year.
Is the lead data secure and private for my brokerage?
Security is non-negotiable in financial services. We deploy your system on enterprise-grade, encrypted infrastructure compliant with SOC 2 and HIPAA where applicable, with all data stored in your chosen cloud (AWS, Azure) for full control. Leads are anonymized during processing and access-logged to prevent breaches. Unlike shared SaaS platforms, there's no multi-tenant risk—your borrower data never mingles with others. A compliance audit for one of our financial clients confirmed zero vulnerabilities, giving them peace of mind amid rising cyber threats in the lending space.
