Comparison · Document Intelligence
Ocrolus does document automation, cash-flow analytics, and document-fraud detection across lending. Sei turns mortgage documents into rep-and-warrant-eligible income, cited underwriting, closing, and QC on one managed platform.
The short version
Ocrolus is a strong, broad document-intelligence platform. It classifies a wide range of document types, extracts data, analyzes bank-statement cash flow and detects document tampering, serving fintech, SMB, bank and mortgage lenders.
Sei is mortgage-specific and carries documents all the way to a funded, salable loan. The same managed platform calculates rep-and-warrant-eligible income through Fannie’s Income Calculator and clears conditions against the Fannie, Freddie and FHA handbooks plus overlays, with citations. It automates the Closing Disclosure, runs post-close QC and handles borrower-facing voice.
The frame
Most of the vendors on this page automate one step. The question that decides the buy is what happens when that step is done: a tool hands its output back to a queue, and someone has to pick it up. A desk holds the goal until it is reached, and tells you where it stopped.
Extraction, or an application form, or a review pass. It runs when someone runs it, and hands the result to the next queue.
It holds a goal across weeks, wakes when the loan moves, re-plans when the file changes, and escalates by name when it is below its confidence floor.
So there is a reconciliation step, and a version of the file only one vendor can see.
A condition created by underwriting is visible to the document desk in the same instant, because there is only one of it.
Eight vendors, eight handoffs, and the cycle time lives in the gaps between them.
Lead call to clear-to-close, boarding to payoff, against one version-controlled rulebook.

What those rows mean
Conditions clear against the Fannie Mae Selling Guide, Freddie Mac and FHA Handbook 4000.1, plus your investor overlays. Each item is confidence-scored and cited to the source document, so reviewers handle only true exceptions.
Income is calculated across W-2, self-employed (Schedule C, K-1, S-corp, 1099), rental, and retirement income, with Fannie Mae Income Calculator integration — so eligible calculations earn representation-and-warranty relief and lower repurchase risk.
Sei builds, deploys and runs the agents and workflows for you — from the first sales call through underwriting, closing and post-close QC. Managed means Sei runs the system, not that a services team works your files behind it. Every decision is machine-made, confidence-scored and cited, and the automation rate is a number you can hold Sei to.
