Mentioned in this episode: Optimal Blue Study - MarketWise Advisors Mortgage capital markets decisions have a direct impact on lender profitability, efficiency, and risk management. To better understand that impact, Optimal Blue commissioned an independent ROI study with MarketWise Advisors, analyzing data from hundreds of mortgage lenders, including banks, credit unions, and independent mortgage banks. The Optimal Blue ROI Study highlights consistent gains in operational efficiency, pricing accuracy, and financial performance for lenders using Optimal Blue technology. Key findings include an average $1,006 net financial benefit per loan, nearly 45% greater operational capacity, and strong return on investment reported by PPE clients, with results consistent across lender types. The full 2026 Optimal Blue ROI Study will be released in May and provides a data‑driven look at how mortgage capital markets technology can support better execution and decision‑making. 👉 Sign up to be notified when the full report is released: OptimalBlue.com/2026-study ROI Study","meta_description":"Recorded live from the Optimal Blue Summit 2026 , this special bonus episode of Optimal Insights captures the energy, insights, and big ideas coming out o…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":419,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/optimal-insights-mortgage-data-capital-markets-insights-7025480/episodes/live-from-optimal-blue-summit-2026-ai-recapture-the-future-of-mortgage-tech/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/optimal-insights-mortgage-data-capital-markets-insights-7025480/live-from-optimal-blue-summit-2026-ai-recapture-the-future-of-mortgage-tech.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
