Pylon and Plaid Team Up to Streamline Verification in Programmatic Mortgage Originations
MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pylon, the programmatic mortgage infrastructure provider for modern originators, today announced a partnership with Plaid, a leading open finance data platform. Through this integration, Pylon customers can seamlessly access Plaid's income and asset verification services –critical data sources that power key stages of the mortgage underwriting process–without additional steps.
This integration brings us closer to fully programmatic originations.
Verifying a borrower's income, assets, and employment is essential to underwriting, yet most lenders still rely on manual uploads of documents like paystubs and bank statements. With Plaid embedded in Pylon's mortgage automation software, asset and income data can be programmatically retrieved and verified. This accelerates automated mortgage processing, reduces manual work and processing costs, and improves the borrower experience.
Whether customers use Pylon's out-of-the-box Elements or build on the API, Plaid is fully embedded. Pylon handles credentialing, compliance, and billing on behalf of its customers, enabling a frictionless, secure way to activate verified data sources as part of a fully automated origination flow.
Plaid is an approved vendor under both Fannie Mae's Day 1 Certainty and Freddie Mac's AIM initiatives, allowing verified asset data to bypass manual underwriting. When combined with Pylon's automated credit, compliance, and capital workflows, these verified data sources accelerate automated mortgage processing by moving loans faster from application to underwriting and, in many cases, directly to closing.
'Plaid is the market leader in financial data access, and the ability to instantly verify assets and incomes is an important piece of mortgage automation,' said Trent Hedge, CEO of Pylon. 'This integration brings us closer to fully programmatic originations. We look forward to expanding our partnership with Plaid in the future.'

Omdia Forecasts Flat TV Shipments in 2025, but Mini LED Poised for Explosive Growth at 82.9%
LONDON, June 26, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Omdia's latest 1Q25 TV Sets Forecast reveals TV shipments are expected to remain nearly flat in 2025, totaling 208.7 million units (-0.1% year-on-year). Despite overall modest demand, Mini LED, and extra-large screen sizes are set to grow quickly, driven by retailers and brands focusing on premium features. Omdia's latest TV sets analysis highlights two key regions expected to buck the global trend and deliver shipment growth in 2025: North America – forecasted to hit 49.9 million units (+1.6% year-on-year) thanks to competitive pricing strategies from channel brands, ample inventory, and a diverse range of technologies (LCD, OLED) and features (QD, Mini LED, smart OS). China – forecasted to reach 38.3 million units (+3.2% year-on-year) boosted significantly by ongoing consumer electronics subsidies and rising demand for larger screens. "Although overall shipment growth remains flat, key technologies and larger screen sizes will see significantly higher growth rates. These differentiators will be crucial for both emerging Chinese brands and established players aiming to capture and defend market share," explains Hisakazu Torii, Chief Analyst, TV Sets, Omdia. Top 5 positive YoY unit growth of TV technology, size, and features for 2025: Mini LED: 82.9% 90-inch +: 57.4% QD LCD: 36.0% 80 – 89-inch: 26.5% 75 – 79-inch: 12.3% Despite headwinds from US tariffs, North American shipments are expected to grow due to sufficient inventory built up since last year and aggressive pricing strategies from Chinese and channel brands. Overall shipments in North America will reach 49.9 million units in 2025, a 1.6% year-on-year unit growth. Consumers in this region benefit from a broad range of screen technologies, features, and brands offered at competitive prices. This diversity ensures a stable, accessible market environment, though it could become vulnerable if inventory tightens or prices rise significantly during the year. In China, shipments will reach 38.3 million units in 2025, a YoY growth rate of 3.2%, thanks to consumer electronics (CE) subsidies launched in August last year. While demand for larger screens (75-inch and above) continues to surge at 24.2% YoY, shipments for smaller screens (65-inch and below) are expected to decline 6.0% YoY. Strategic demand pull-in to drive inventory adjustments in Latin America TV shipments in Latin America experienced significant growth starting 4Q24 (15.2% YoY) and continuing into 1Q25 (9.2% YoY), prior to the announcement of US tariffs. The region had already enjoyed positive shipment momentum in the previous two years (2023-2024), supported by favorable currencies, stable inflation rates, strong economies, and lower unemployment rates. "The recent spike in shipments, however, reflects growing concerns regarding potential negative impact of US tariffs. Retailers and brands have strategically accelerated shipments into the Latin America aiming to secure inventory earlier and at lower cost, particularly with the FIFA World Cup 2026 approaching next year," said Torii. In the other regions (excluding North America, China and Latin America), shipments are expected to decline by -1.2% YoY in 2025. These markets lack strong promotional factors (such as major sporting events), face less aggressive pricing strategies, and continue to deal with inflation and currency volatility, and increased costs.

TIME100 Most Influential Companies 2025: Plaid
Chances are decent that some of the apps that run your financial life—from how you pay friends back for dinner to how you invest—have a common connection: Plaid. Connecting over 12,000 financial institutions and 8,000 fintech apps including Robinhood, Venmo, and Google Wallet, Plaid provides the digital plumbing through which money flows. 'I don't want to give ourselves too much credit, but I think we were a meaningful part of helping financial services become as digital as they are today,' says co-founder and CEO Zach Perret. The sheer breadth of its connections offers Plaid a uniquely comprehensive view of financial activity, which it now leverages to combat fraud. In 2024, it also began using real-time cash flow data to help businesses go beyond credit scores when assessing consumer risk levels. The startup, valued at $6.1 billion, says this opens new avenues for immigrants, gig workers and others with limited credit profiles to access loans. Disclosure: Investors in Plaid include Salesforce, where TIME co-chair and owner Marc Benioff is CEO.
