We have partnered with Wilqo, operator of the mortgage industry's first Production Optimization Platform (POP). The collaboration combines DocMagic's seamless digital lending solution suite with Wilqo's cloud-native loan manufacturing platform, creating an enhanced experience that further optimizes workflows for lenders.

Dubbed Charlie™, Wilqo's POP technology is transforming the mortgage lending process by breaking work into atomic-level tasks, automating flows, and providing actionable insights that optimize throughput while reducing costs. Charlie combines point-of-sale (POS), loan origination (LOS), task management, and business intelligence into a single, intuitive platform.

Leveraging modern APIs, DocMagic's intelligent document generation solution seamlessly integrates with Wilqo's POP solution, offering shared customers streamlined loan processes from application to closing.

DocMagic's comprehensive technology allows lenders to manage the entire lifecycle of loan documents digitally using automated workflows. Our secure platform ensures the electronic production and delivery of compliant loan packages while providing borrowers with a convenient, efficient customer experience. Mutual lender clients benefit from faster loan closings, heightened accuracy, and a reduction in time-consuming, error-prone manual processes.

The partnership also includes plans for Wilqo to incorporate our Total eClose™ solution, enabling fully paperless eClosings, complete with embedded RON functionality, eNotes, and eVault storage. The automation of loan closings further modernizes the mortgage lending process and arms lenders with the tools they need to stay ahead in a competitive market.

 

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news from the DocMagic team—our Chief Operating Officer, Lori Johnson, has been named a 2025 Woman of Tech by Mortgage Women Magazine! This well-deserved recognition celebrates Lori’s remarkable contributions to mortgage technology, her leadership within our organization, and her ongoing advocacy for women in the industry.

“I’m honored to receive this recognition,” Lori shared. “Empowering women and advancing digital mortgage technology are very important to me, and I’m grateful to be part of such an innovative and forward-thinking company.”

With a career spanning decades in mortgage technology, Lori has been a driving force behind digital transformation. Prior to joining DocMagic, she co-founded and served as president of Document Express, leading it through its acquisition by DocMagic in 2014, where she played a hands-on role in successfully integrating the two companies.

At DocMagic, she served as director of client services, playing a key role in our growth, before stepping into the COO position last year. She is responsible for achieving company business objectives as well as leading initiatives focused on operational excellence and client success. Her efforts led to increased eClose adoption and a growth trajectory that landed DocMagic on Inc. 5000’s list of fastest-growing private companies.

Her leadership continues to shape our path forward. As our CEO Pat Theodora put it, “Lori’s unwavering dedication and leadership continue to shape the digital mortgage landscape. Her commitment to innovation and her mentorship of women in tech set a powerful example for future industry leaders.”

We couldn’t be more proud to have Lori on our team and are inspired by her vision, passion, and resilience every day.

We're honored to share that we've been recognized by HousingWire as one of the most innovative and impactful mortgage technology firms in the U.S. housing economy again for 2025. We’re one of only a handful of vendors to earn a spot on the coveted list every single year since the Tech 100 program started.

Pat Theodora, our co-founder and CEO, commented, “For 38 years and counting, DocMagic has stayed true to its core mission of reducing clients’ reliance on paper by automating manual tasks while ensuring compliance throughout the mortgage process. DocMagic is honored to again receive recognition for our unrelenting efforts to facilitate adoption of digital mortgages."

DocMagic was an early supporter of the ESIGN Act of 2000, implementing eSignature functionality on all of our loan documents and embracing the industry vision of achieving a true eMortgage. We developed numerous technology breakthroughs, including transformative mortgage technology solutions that accompany hard-driving adoption and educational campaigns.

Throughout 2024, we further deepened AI exploration in various areas of our compliance solutions and digital lending products, with the goal of further minimizing human intervention and maximizing business efficiencies through a digital workforce.

We also added important new features and functionality to our proprietary eNote registry solution, SmartREGISTRY™, which established easier eNote setup for lender clients via direct integration with the MERS^® eRegistry system. This has dramatically simplified and expedited the eNote process for lenders, boosting client adoption of eNotes in 2024 and increasing RON adoption as well.

Our SmartREGISTRY solution works seamlessly with our SmartSAFE^® eVault technology, which also integrates with Total eClose™, our comprehensive, completely paperless eClosing system. Total eClose integrates tightly with contemporary LOS platforms, establishing a streamlined, easy, efficient workflow for lender closing staff.
