Tamarack, Sharpei partner on AI-powered origination platform

Tamarack Technology launched an AI-powered origination solution for equipment finance lenders in partnership with automation provider Sharpei, aiming to streamline application intake and document workflows.

Minneapolis-based technology advisory and software firm Tamarack‘s platform automates several early stages of lending while integrating with lenders’ existing loan origination systems, according to today’s company release. The solution’s design helps lenders improve efficiency and reduce bottlenecks tied to manual application and document handling.

The platform uses Sharpei’s AI-driven automation to capture information into underwriting and loan origination systems, according to the release.

Key features include:

• Automated application intake;
• Document verification;
• Workflow routing;
• Exception management; and
• Integration with third-party data providers.

The system targets common pain points in equipment finance originations, in which lenders often rely on fragmented processes, manual document reviews and multiple disconnected systems, according to the release.

By automating document collection and validation while maintaining compatibility with existing systems, the new platform is intended to help lenders modernize origination workflows without requiring a full technology overhaul, according to the release.

Sharpei launched Jan 10, 2023, according to Crunchbase.
