Why I built this

I was researching what it would take to get my mortgage license when I started spending time in the Facebook groups where loan officers talk through live deals. The same question came up constantly: who can do this? DSCR at 0.75, employment gap, non-warrantable condo. LOs were burning hours on the phone with AEs and posting cold into groups while borrowers waited. The same feeds were flooded with competing LOs advertising for the same clients.

It was clear the problem wasn't a shortage of originators. It was a shortage of answers. I stopped pursuing the license and started building Aria instead. If I could put an experienced underwriter's routing knowledge into every LO's pocket, it would reach far more borrowers than I could ever serve originating loans myself.
