Broker Innovation Brief

The mortgage broking industry is entering a transformative era where technology, artificial intelligence, and specialist knowledge are changing the game. Brokers are no longer just matching borrowers with lenders or finding competitive rates. They are becoming strategic advisors, using digital tools to simplify processes, improve client experiences, and navigate a complex regulatory landscape.

The Broker Daily Innovation Summit showed how AI is reshaping every part of the profession. Silvio Giorgio introduced the idea of “AI Prime,” a shift beyond digital-first approaches, where artificial intelligence is embedded in decision-making, communication, and commerce. From advanced predictive models to conversational AI, the way clients find information and how brokers deliver solutions is being completely redefined.

Practical applications were highlighted by Adam Franklin and Christopher Borg, who demonstrated “agentic AI” capable of completing multi-step tasks on its own, from lead generation to client follow-ups. Their message was clear. Brokers who embrace AI will outpace those who resist, but human oversight is essential. Automation, efficiency gains, and smarter client retention strategies are now tools to build stronger relationships, not replace them.

We want to thank the supporters who made the Summit possible. In particular, our principal partner NextGen without whom this event could not have happened. We are also grateful to Accurateli, LoanOptions.ai, Mortgage Choice, Broker Pulse, Bankwest, Prospa, Cynario, Stryd, Bizcap, Lextech, and DocuScan for their insights, generosity, and commitment to driving innovation in broking.

The Summit made one thing clear. Tomorrow’s brokers need to balance innovation with intuition. By embracing AI, using technology purposefully, and keeping human relationships at the center, brokers can not only survive but lead in a fast-moving market.
