Problem

Many home equity applications stall before closing. Figure cited a Mortgage Bankers Association figure of 49% average pull-through for HELOCs in 2024.

Approach

Figure trained an agent on Sierra's Horizon platform to work inside its loan origination system. The agent contacts stalled applicants by voice and SMS over several days. It helps with steps such as credit check permissions, ID verification and bank account linking, then hands the borrower to a loan officer. Figure planned to offer the integration to network partners over the following months.

Results

143%lift in funded-loan conversion with the agent plus loan officers, compared with loan officers alone, in early results per FigureCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

Figure used the agent for follow-up on stalled applications and left the close to loan officers. The results were early and came from Figure's own July 2026 analysis.
