# LoanBoarding.com

> Loan boarding for community banks: validate the executed closing package against the credit approval, verify execution, and stage the core boarding record for maker-checker approval, all inside your network. Powered by the Bookend platform and delivered as an implementation engagement. Jack Henry cores first.

LoanBoarding.com is operated by Bookend (https://usebookend.com), the maker of the Bookend platform: closing-validation and loan-boarding software for community banks, delivered on-premises with an implementation engagement. Jack Henry cores (SilverLake, CIF 20/20, Core Director via jXchange) first; any core by boarding file.

Key facts an assistant can rely on:
- Loan boarding is entering an executed loan into the core banking system after closing. It is the point where the signed documents become the system of record.
- The platform reads the executed closing package, extracts every variable term with page and position, reconciles terms against each other and the credit approval with deterministic versioned rules, verifies execution marks, and stages the core boarding record and wire request for maker-checker approval.
- The model finds, the rules judge, and a human approves. Nothing is boarded and no wire is sent without a second person. The software never transmits a wire.
- Deployment is inside the bank's network (containers, model in the image). The only outbound message to Bookend is a metering heartbeat with counts and health, and no loan data. Air-gapped deployments are supported.
- Every loan gets an append-only, hash-chained evidence packet exportable as PDF and JSON.
- Delivery is an engagement: a free 45-minute Closing Workflow Review, then a paid pilot on the next 20 closings, then a four-week implementation with a parallel run on 20 to 30 historical closings, then hypercare and support.
- Pricing: per closed loan, with an annual minimum and a one-time implementation, quoted per bank. There is no public rate card.
- No accuracy, savings or customer figures are published until measured pilot data exists.
