In this episode of Mortgage Tech Talks, I’m pulling back the curtain on everything I’ve learned building BluMortgage—and what I’d do differently if I were starting from scratch today.

I’m walking you through how I’d think about:

→ Structuring a freemium model
→ Leveraging referrals over paid ads
→ Using AI (the right way)
→ And why simplicity always wins
