Kara Thompson and Ashley on automating rental underwriting across 65 properties and 13,000 units: approval time down from 72 hours to 5, and 134,000 man hours recovered in six months.
Before Findigs, it was taking us, on average, 72 hours to approve an application. Now, on average, it's taking Findigs five hours.
Shot at Oakwood Management's own offices near Columbus, Ohio. Two interviewees filmed back to back in a corporate office turned into a set. The first room was abandoned because a large TV reflected into frame; the second was chosen for its window, then dressed down - papers and boxes cleared, two sheets rehung symmetrically so the board behind would not read as an empty black wall. B-roll followed Kara walking through the working office.
