Smartr365 has added a new Microsoft-powered feature to its end-to-end software platform for mortgage brokers.
SmartrTalk, the first integration of its kind in the UK mortgage market, will allow users to initiate, join, and schedule video and audio calls, without leaving the system.
All Smartr365 users will be able to use SmartrTalk as part of their existing subscription, with no requirement for brokers or customers to have an external license, with all the benefits of Microsoft security.
Smartr365 described audio and video calls as an “essential part” of the mortgage journey since the move to remote working.
“The mortgage process has changed significantly in the last 12 months, and Smartr365 has evolved with it,” commented Smartr365 CEO, Conor Murphy. “SmartrTalk is the latest new feature we have built to make brokers’ jobs simpler, more efficient, and enable them to thrive in a remote environment.
“As the first mortgage platform to integrate Microsoft, and to do so at no additional cost to our users, is another great step in helping brokers to work smarter, not harder.”
Head of product engineering, Edwin Halakooei, added: “Smartr365 is built by brokers, for brokers, so we know the importance of slick and easy solutions to everyday problems. We prioritised user experience when developing this integration, and we’re pleased to have produced a seamless way for brokers to communicate with their clients.
“SmartrTalk will be invaluable as the mortgage process remains remote for the foreseeable future, but it will also give our users the tools for a better, digital journey in the long-term.”
