This is the role I always dreamed of even when many people said it was “too early” in my career or “too ambitious.” Not a lot of folks believed it was possible… but I did. And today, it became real. When I got the news, I was genuinely the happiest person on earth. A huge thank you to Michael Vandi for believing in me, guiding me through the process, and giving me the opportunity to build amazing things at Addy AI. The Amazing New-Gen Interview? I didn't just enjoy it. I LOVED it! Seriously, it was next-level incredible 🤩! Over the past few years, I’ve heard every kind of demotivation: 👉 “𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚.” 👉 “𝘿𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙖𝙞𝙢 𝙩𝙤𝙤 𝙝𝙞𝙜𝙝.” 👉 "𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚." 👉 “𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙮 𝙞𝙩 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚.” But here’s what I learned and what I want anyone reading this to take away: 👉 𝙄𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙗𝙨𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙥𝙪𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙮, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙨 𝙒𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪. 👉 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩. 👉 𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙙, 𝙧𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙡𝙮 ��𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙠𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙪𝙥. Dream roles don’t come to people who wait. They come to people who prepare, believe, and refuse to settle. Excited for this new chapter. Onwards 🚀 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝘆 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗼𝗼𝗻... 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗲𝗱!!!

Our CEO Michael Vandi joins Brian Vieaux, CMB this Friday for an insightful conversation on AI. Hype vs reality, governance and the future. MISMO sets data standards in our industry. Addy AI implements AI at scale. Today, responsible AI is no longer an option, it’s a necessity. This is a great collaboration to close out the year! Tune in below

We at Addy AI are honored to join the MISMO community and to be a Gold Sponsor at the MISMO Winter Summit. MISMO sets the standards that power mortgage technology. At Addy AI, we are building practical AI that aligns with those standards to help lenders move faster, reduce manual work, and deliver cleaner loan files.

Today feels like a turning point in my life and in my career. I officially stepped into my new role as Head of AI Adoption at Addy AI, and I could not be more proud of how far I have come to get here. Anyone who knows me knows the last few years were not easy. I had to rebuild everything from the ground up. I had to learn, adapt and stay hungry when it would have been easier to quit. Early on I made a decision that I was not going to miss the wave that AI is bringing to our world. I leaned into it. I studied it. I built with it. And it changed the direction of my career. Walking into Addy AI today reminded me of something important. I am exactly where I belong. I get to help an entire industry understand what AI can really do and how it can transform the way people work. I get to build systems, frameworks and strategies that create real adoption and real impact for lenders, partners and loan officers across the country. Thank you to everyone who stood by me, encouraged me and believed in me even when life looked chaotic from the outside. Your support means everything to me. If you are in the mortgage space and you want to understand how AI can make your workflow faster, cleaner and more profitable, reach out. I am here for it.

Huge News: We are excited to share that Addy AI is now SOC 2 compliant. 🎉 This is an important milestone for our team and a major step forward in our mission to bring dependable AI to the mortgage industry. SOC 2 compliance validates the systems, processes and safeguards we have built behind the scenes. It reflects the discipline of our engineering and operations teams and the care we put into supporting the lenders who rely on us every day. For our current and future partners, this means smoother onboarding, easier vendor reviews and even greater confidence in the platform powering your loan workflows. We are proud of the work that went into this. A special shoutout to our Head of Engineering Joao Aires de Matos for his tremendous work in this initiative! This milestone strengthens our foundation as we continue to grow, build and support lenders with the next generation of AI tools. Onward from here.
