Ep. 5 From Tape Cracking to Agentic AI: Scalata’s Play for Mortgage Data

AI in mortgage doesn’t fail because of ambition.
It fails because of data fragmentation.

That’s exactly where this conversation goes.

In the latest episode of MISMO Mic’d Up, I sat down with Bruno Lorenzelli, Founder & CEO of Scalata.ai, to unpack why interoperability, not hype, is the real unlock for AI in mortgage lending.

Bruno brings a global perspective shaped by:
• 30+ years in technology banking and credit markets
• First-hand experience from the subprime mortgage crisis
• Building (and rebuilding) complex fintech platforms at scale

We dig into:
🔹 Why mortgage data is still harder than it needs to be
🔹 How “tape cracking” became a hidden cost center
🔹 Why AI without standards increases hallucination risk
🔹 What agentic AI actually looks like inside mortgage manufacturing
🔹 How frameworks (not point solutions) unlock scale

My favorite takeaway:
👉 AI moves fast. Standards keep us aligned.

If you care about AI, MISMO, data standards, or the future of mortgage workflows—this one’s worth your time.
