By now, most title agencies use some form of automation, yet many still handle a surprising number of routine tasks by hand as files move between systems.
In a new article for ALTA TitleNews Online, our CEO Wade Thibodeaux looks at why those gaps tend to linger and offers a few practical starting points for agencies ready to look at their full workflow.
Thanks to ALTA for publishing it – we hope you'll check it out!
What the article covers
- Automation isn't the finish line. AI adoption in title agencies has moved past early experiments, but automating individual tasks hasn't removed the inefficiency in the workflow as a whole.
- The gaps are between tools. Much of the leftover manual work happens where files are handed from one system, or one person, to the next.
- Optimize the connections. Wade argues agencies get more from tightening how their digital tools and their people's decisions fit together than from adding another point solution.
