Blend Labs (NYSE: BLND) announced that a tenth lender has signed on to Autopilot, its AI system for home lending.
The milestone comes six months after Autopilot began working on live loans and three months after commercial availability. Latest adopters include Whatcom Educational Credit Union and Gate City Bank.

It is available to lenders on Blend’s Home Lending platform.
Blend (BLND) and Factual Data announced the availability of Innovis Early View within Blend’s Home Lending suite for lenders.
The tool checks Innovis credit data against lender-configured disqualifying conditions before a tri-merge report, which combines credit reports, is ordered. Lenders receive a notification if a disqualifying condition is found; otherwise, the application continues through their existing Blend workflow. The companies describe the integration as a way to avoid unnecessary credit-report costs. Early View does not replace the tri-merge report required for loans sold to government-sponsored enterprises.

Blend will also support Journey Home, Alliant’s end-to-end homeownership experience that guides consumers from saving for a down payment through home search, financing, closing and moving in, aiming to connect traditionally fragmented steps in the homebuying process.
