FormFree Holdings, a mortgage technology vendor in Atlanta, received a U.S. patent for its automated asset verification system, AccountChek.
AccountChek lets lenders and consumers authorize and share critical borrower information that is needed to close a loan. The patent acknowledges the company's proprietary process to electronically analyze data and flag potential risks to help customers make better lending decisions.
