Searching county court records and land records sounds simple on paper. In practice, it is one of the most fragmented, inconsistent, and risk-prone research processes in the U.S. legal and real estate system. More than 3,600 counties, thousands of clerks, and no national standard govern how court filings, deeds, liens, judgments, and ownership changes are […]
Trust in real estate lending has always depended on title data—but the definition of “trustworthy” has changed. Speed alone no longer satisfies investors, regulators, or sophisticated lenders. What matters now is transparency: the ability to understand where title data came from, how current it is, and how conclusions were reached. For decades, the industry relied […]
Across the lending and real estate finance landscape, a clear operational gap has emerged. On one end, consumer search platforms provide fast but shallow property data. On the other, enterprise data providers offer massive, highly customized datasets—often tied to complex, multi-million-dollar contracts and lengthy onboarding cycles.

Static PDF title reports—once considered sufficient—are no longer capable of supporting modern transaction speed, regulatory scrutiny, or automation requirements.

In modern lending, speed is no longer measured in days or even hours. It’s measured in decision cycles. How quickly can a lender move from uncertainty to confidence? From “we think it’s clear” to “we know it’s clear”? That’s where the concept of 0.43 business days to insight comes from—not as marketing fluff, but as […]
For decades, the title report has looked essentially the same: a static PDF, delivered by email, opened by a human, reviewed line by line, and manually interpreted before a loan could move forward. That model worked when loan volumes were lower, timelines were flexible, and risk tolerance was higher. Today, it is one of the […]
