Release 25.4
May 1, 2025
🚀Features:
- Enhanced UI for Mandatory Documents
- Previously, brokers had to scroll through a list to find the relevant mandatory documents for digital submission.
- Mandatory documents are now displayed upfront for any digital lender. A new Platform Generated Documents table includes all generated documents of the deal, such as UBO reports, credit reports, and credit memorandums.
- Streamlined Management of Individuals
Previously, Individuals’ related data were managed across different places in the broker portal, creating complexity and increasing the likelihood of errors or missed information. An Individual can now be linked to multiple borrowers when creating an individual or personal guarantors.
The platform now provides a unified view of all key individuals, removes redundant borrower-specific information, and allows for an individual to be linked to multiple borrowers.
Any potential duplicates are also automatically highlighted, and brokers can merge them seamlessly while preserving all data and linkages.

Resolved an issue where collateral commentary might not display in some instances.
Resolved an issue where individuals created from SMSF financials were not automatically added as a member role.
Release 25.3
March 28, 2025
🚀Features:
- Joint Collateral Owners: It’s common for collateral to have multiple owners, especially with commercial or residential properties. We’ve added support for managing joint ownership of collateral, including capturing multiple owners and ownership percentages.
- Joint Loan Applicants: The current platform only permits a single borrower per loan, limiting flexibility for borrowers who need to co-borrow. We’ve added support for multiple borrowers per loan, facilitating joint loan applications and better reflecting real-world scenarios.
- Horizontal Scroll on Financials: The financials tab can take up too much screen space, especially when deals involve multiple years of past and forecast data. We’ve added horizontal scrolling to financials, improving usability and data access.
- Bank Guarantee Purpose: Replacing a Bank Guarantee is more common than refinancing one. The ‘Refinance’ option for Bank Guarantee Purpose has been renamed to ‘Replacement’.
