Copperlane

Copperlane is an AI-native mortgage loan origination platform founded in 2025 by Brianna Lin and Athan Zhang and backed by Y Combinator (W26 batch). Its AI agent, Penny, behaves like a real loan officer: it guides borrowers through intake, pulls and reads borrower documents, verifies loan eligibility in real time, answers borrower questions live, and generates Letters of Explanation, delivering cleaner files to human loan officers so they can focus on closing loans instead of chasing paperwork. The San Francisco company raised a $4.1M seed round to modernize a mortgage origination process that remains largely manual. Copperlane is currently a demo-request business application and does not publish a public developer API, SDK, or developer portal.

Copperlane is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Mortgage, Lending, Loan Origination, and Financial Services.

Copperlane’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 5 more developer resources.
