Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from the number of active loan-officer and processor seats licensed across web-based and installed platforms, multiplied by the per-seat or per-loan transaction pricing lenders actually pay under current subscription and usage-based contracts. Loan origination volumes reported through HMDA anchor the seat-count assumptions by business size and end-user type. That bottom-up build is then checked against revenue disclosed by publicly reporting vendors such as ICE Mortgage Technology and Fiserv in their own filings. Where the two diverge, the seat-count or pricing assumption is corrected to match disclosed revenue rather than averaging the two figures together, since the unit-level build is the estimate and the disclosure is the check on it.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews target loan-officer and processing leads at mid-size and large lenders, procurement and IT staff who select and renew loan-origination platforms, channel partners such as credit and title data providers, and compliance officers who own the vendor-approval process at banks and credit unions. Sampling weights toward the United States and the United Kingdom, where mortgage origination volumes are largest and platform switching is most frequent, with a smaller sample drawn from Australia and India to capture faster-growing non-bank lending activity. Conversations focus on which modules a lender actually renews each year, how pricing is negotiated at contract renewal, and which integration gaps most often trigger a vendor switch.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on MISMO data-exchange standards that define how loan data moves between origination and servicing systems, Home Mortgage Disclosure Act origination filings for loan-volume counts by lender size, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac technology-provider approval lists, and state licensing records maintained through the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System. Public filings from listed vendors, including ICE Mortgage Technology and Fiserv, supply disclosed segment revenue used as a check on the unit-based build. Mortgage Bankers Association benchmark surveys on lender technology spending round out the desk research where company-level disclosure does not reach down to individual modules.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast carries forward continued migration from installed to web-based platforms, a gradual shift from seat-based to usage-based pricing as vendors chase higher-volume non-bank lenders, and a rise in electronic-note and electronic-closing adoption that pulls document and compliance modules into the same subscription as origination. The 2022-2023 slowdown in mortgage originations is treated as a rate-driven trough, not a permanent step down in software demand, so volumes normalize as rates ease later in the period. For the forecast to hold, lenders need to keep expanding platform usage even where loan counts stay flat, since subscription revenue increasingly tracks modules used instead of loans closed.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs are checked by back-testing the 2020-2024 series against loan-origination volumes reported through HMDA and against Mortgage Bankers Association survey data on lender technology spending over the same years, confirming that modeled growth in the web-based segment does not outrun actual origination activity. Segment-share shifts, including the move toward small-business adoption and non-bank end users, were reviewed against public statements from listed vendors about their own customer mix. Sensitivities were tested on the pace of the installed-to-web-based migration and on how far mortgage rates fall over the forecast period, since both assumptions move the segment split more than any other input.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest for the type and application axes, where public filings from ICE Mortgage Technology and Fiserv give a direct read on web-based revenue and enterprise-tier adoption. It is weaker for smaller, privately held vendors such as PCLender and Byte Software, where no revenue is disclosed and estimates rest on proxy indicators. The non-bank lender and analytics-module figures carry the most uncertainty, since reporting on non-bank origination technology spending is thinner than for banks. A change in GSE technology-approval requirements or a wave of vendor consolidation would be the most likely reason to revise this estimate.
