Ask Obi enables executives to inquire about intricate profitability metrics with simple, conversational queries \u2013 such as, \u201cWhat markets had the greatest change in average margins from Q3 2024 to Q4 2024?\u201d or \u201cWhich loan officers issued the most concessions over the second week of January 2025?\u201d \u2013 and get easy-to-understand answers at a granular level to improve strategic decision-making.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur clients operate in a time when speed and accuracy matters, so having to wait for reports to be generated \u2013 only to then spend more time poring over those reports to get to the insights needed to make decisions \u2013 doesn\u2019t make sense,\u201d said Joe Tyrrell, CEO of Optimal Blue. \u201cWith Ask Obi, those hours of generating, compiling, and analyzing reports are replaced with accurate, real-time, personalized information, designed specifically for decision-makers, by delivering the data that matters most to their profitability. While other companies are talking about AI, but in reality are still trying to catch up to our accuracy and core capabilities, Optimal Blue has already embraced generative AI to solve real operational and capital markets challenges, all at no additional cost to our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAsk Obi demonstrates the unique value clients realize by working with Optimal Blue, a provider of comprehensive capital markets technology,\u201d said Erin Wester, chief product officer of Optimal Blue. \u201cThrough the power of generative AI, users can have an interactive conversation to better understand the data that drives their business. In contrast to other tools that may require filters and manual selections, Ask Obi is designed for ease of use and conversational interactions, while conveniently building off a user\u2019s previous inquiries and suggesting preloaded questions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Available to Optimal Blue clients for beta testing later this month, Ask Obi offers complete access to a lender\u2019s PPE data, with development work underway to expand access across Optimal Blue\u2019s complete capital markets platform.
