Friday Harbor Secures $6M to Enhance AI-Powered Lending Platform

Friday Harbor has raised $6 million in a seed funding round led by Abstract Ventures, as announced in a press release. The funding aims to enhance Friday Harbor's AI-powered platform, which assists community lenders in closing loans more efficiently by automating the loan file assembly process.
The platform leverages AI to read and interpret borrower documents, generate borrower-specific needs lists, and underwrite files in real time. This technology allows lenders to address potential issues quickly, reducing the time and cost associated with traditional loan processing methods. The seed round also saw participation from Wischoff Ventures and the AI2 Incubator.
Founded by Theo Ellis and Jesse Collins, Friday Harbor aims to provide advanced AI tools to lenders of all sizes, enabling them to compete with larger mortgage companies. The new funding will support the growth of the company's engineering team and facilitate integrations with leading mortgage loan origination systems and point-of-sale platforms.
