Argyle Expands Tidalwave Mortgage Integration With Bank Data, Sending 3 Verifications to Encompass

3 articles · Updated · Rocky Mount Telegram · Sep 9

Summary

  • Argyle’s expanded Tidalwave integration now adds bank-account connections for asset verification, letting borrowers submit income, employment and asset data in one mortgage application flow.
  • That data now feeds directly into ICE Mortgage Technology’s Encompass loan origination system, giving lenders real-time verification status from application through closing.
  • Tidalwave said its AI agents analyze the shared records to flag risk indicators, spot recurring payments and buy-now-pay-later usage, and calculate eligible income and assets for loan officers.
  • The companies first linked Argyle’s payroll-based income and employment verification into Tidalwave in 2025; the new banking layer broadens that partnership across more of the mortgage lifecycle.
  • The integration is available now to mutual customers, as lenders push to cut manual document collection, speed underwriting and reduce fraud and compliance risk.
