Seed thesis

• The mess: Document chasing across parties; checklist/underwriting rule compliance; sequential signature orchestration; deadline coordination.
• Why now: Durable long-running workflows + document reasoning fit exactly; underwriting/closing rules can be encoded and checked.
• The money: High origination volume; per-loan value.
• Whitespace: Players exist (e.g. lending-ops); regulated and needs lender access.
