How I Helped Eliminate the 35-Minute Signature Drag and Rewrote the Playbook for Loan Document Automation
The Paper Chase Problem
Manual envelope creation outside core system
Errors from mismatched signers or docs
Zero visibility into real-time signature status
Agents were burning 30–40 minutes per loan just managing DocuSign outside the platform—downloading, uploading, chasing signatures across tabs. It wasn’t just inefficient. It was maddening.
Old Flow
Embed DocuSign into our internal platform and eliminate the “tab dance” once and for all—without losing control, compliance, or speed.
What We Set Out to Fix
Centralize all DocuSign actions within the LOS UI
Auto-map signer roles and document tagging
Enable real-time status updates and audit tracking
The new embedded UI reduced 35 minutes of manual work to under 5—with 62.5 hours saved daily across 250 agents and $781K/year in cost savings. It became the default signature workflow overnight.
What Changed
62K+ cumulative hours saved since launch
Eliminated 75%+ of DocuSign UI usage
Triggered auto-routes, error prevention, and faster funding
new Flow
My Role: The Workflow Architect
Developed service blueprint for entire closing process to unlock opportunity
Designed envelope search, tagging, and signer assignment UI
Built modular UX for LaserPro and supplemental doc support
I led the design effort from discovery to delivery—mapping edge cases, partnering with PM and engineering, and shaping a flow that ops would trust and adopt.
