Brokerfront vs Effi
Brokerfront vs Effi — two white-labels, different depth.
Effi is the closest structural match to our go-to-market: a genuine white-label, multi-tenant, self-serve platform for brokers, with an embeddable consumer marketplace. The difference is what sits underneath the brand: a CRM with an AI outreach assistant, or a full origination front door.
Credit where due: Effi shipped real white-label multi-tenancy with self-serve sign-up before we did, its AI assistant runs autonomous SMS outreach and books appointments, and it integrates with ~98% of aggregator software (vendor-claimed).
| Effi | Brokerfront | |
|---|---|---|
| The engine underneath | CRM + lead management + product-search API (~114 lenders) | Whole-of-market rates from the open CDR register, cross-lender serviceability and BID-reasoned matching |
| The client conversation | AI outreach: SMS-first, appointment booking | A full fact-find, by voice or chat, recorded to a structured loan file |
| The website | Embeddable marketplace widget on your site | Your entire branded site — AI-drafted in the studio, live rates, calculators |
| Compliance | CRM records | Enforced-in-code gates: disclosure before comparison, frozen traces, audit trail |
| E-signing | Third-party | In-house, with sealed PDFs and completion certificates |
| Buyer motion | Self-serve; comparison sites embed it | Self-serve tenancy; firm plans from $199/mo |
Choose Effi when
- You mainly need lead outreach automation on top of your current stack
- You run a high-traffic site and want to embed a broker marketplace quickly
Choose Brokerfront when
- You want the client conversation itself — not just follow-up — handled
- Serviceability and BID evidence need to come from the platform, not a spreadsheet
- You want one branded front door, not a widget in a corner of your site
