New innovations in Optimal Blue’s CompassEdge
CompassEdge Ratesheet Tool
Connect front-end pricing with back-end pricing
The Ratesheet Tool connects front-end pricing (i.e., origination) with back-end pricing (i.e., secondary) to allow lenders to generate ratesheet pricing with a known margin, accurately. Linking to both the Optimal Blue PPE and the CompassEdge hedging and loan trading platform, the Ratesheet Tool allows secondary users to access a back-end price and deliver a more accurate execution price to originators.
- Offers a new way for lenders to generate ratesheets with their own proprietary pricing.
- Ensures precision and accuracy from secondary to origination.
- Manage risk at the point of origination though the seamless, end-to-end connection of the Optimal Blue ecosystem.
- Incorporate any execution method for front-end pricing including best efforts, agency cash, agency MBS various servicing valuations, and even bulk bid valuations.

Confirm Assistant
Confirm Assistant is a feature that reduces both the time and potential for manual errors associated with reading and intaking TBA trade confirmation files. The tool uses AI analysis to read files from broker-dealers, parsing the documents into usable formats.
- Simply drag and drop confirmation files and approve them without having to manually key in data.
- Reduce manual, time-consuming steps and freeing up staff to focus on more complex trades.
- Flexibility to change service levels without having to change staffing levels.
