How It Works

Intake to funded, one workflow.

Every deal moves through the same finance-native pipeline — brokers, lenders, and merchants see the next action from application through funding.

How Specter changes the workflow.

Specter unifies underwriting, routing, submissions, and status updates in one clean workflow.

Without Spectersubmit to 5 lenders
3+ hours
  1. 01
    Manual Document Collection

    Chase merchants for docs over email and text. No standard format, data scattered across inboxes.

  2. 02
    Re-enter Per Lender

    Every lender wants a different format. Re-key the same data 3–5 times per deal.

  3. 03
    Guess-Based Routing

    No criteria matching. Spray deals to every lender you know and hope something sticks.

  4. 04
    Copy/Paste Submissions

    Each submission becomes a manual copy-paste job. One deal can mean several lender emails.

  5. 05
    Chase for Updates

    No visibility after submission. Chase each lender individually for status.

  6. 06
    Missed Windows

    Slow follow-up creates missed windows. Deals can expire before your team acts.

FAQ

Workflow questions

How does Specter move a file from intake to funding?

Specter centralizes merchant intake, document collection, bank-statement workflow support, underwriting communication, lender routing, submission tracking, and funding status so every participant can see the next action.

Does the workflow support both brokers and lenders?

Yes. Brokers can package and route cleaner files, while lenders and underwriting teams can review structured submissions with communication history, missing-info context, and status visibility.

Why is finance-native workflow design important?

Commercial finance teams operate around files, stipulations, statements, offers, lender appetite, and funding movement. A finance-native workflow reduces the translation work that generic CRMs leave to operators.
