Sikoia partners with Mast to streamline mortgage process for lenders and brokers

London-based fintech, Sikoia, which helps financial services providers automate key processes, is partnering with Mast. 

Largely focusing on mortgages, Mast is a loan origination platform, currently serving UK building societies and lenders. Through the new collaboration, Mast will integrate Sikoia’s AI-powered application document processing solution into its platform, streamlining case handling and improving the overall user experience for both lenders and brokers.

Sikoia automates tasks such as income, employer, and affordability checks directly from customer-submitted documents, including payslips, bank statements, and tax returns. The Sikoia platform also automatically verifies document authenticity, detects signs of tampering, and checks whether each document meets the specific lender policy requirements for the application.

By embedding this technology into its origination platform, Mast clients can reduce document handling costs and time by over 75%, automate identification of gaps and verification of key data points, and cut document analysis errors to below 1%.

Alexis Rog (pictured), founder and CEO at Sikoia, commented: “Speed and accuracy are essential in today’s mortgage landscape to meaningfully enhance the customer experience. Our partnership with Mast helps deliver that, cutting processing times, reducing errors, and enabling a smoother journey for borrowers and brokers alike.”

Joy Abisaab, co-founder and CEO at Mast, added: “We’re committed to helping lenders process applications faster and more intelligently. Partnering with Sikoia adds a powerful layer of document automation and data verification to our platform - enabling our clients to operate more efficiently while delivering a superior customer experience.”
