Aivre in Detroit has launched an AI-powered appraisal platform, which it states is the first in the United States to complete the Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD) 3.6 verification process with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for compliance with the new data standards.
The new UAD standards will transform residential appraisal reporting into a dynamic and data-driven format, according to the company.
“This is a watershed moment for the appraisal industry,” says Jake Lew, CEO of Aivre. “As UAD 3.6 reshapes the field, appraisers deserve technology that supports their judgment while improving speed and accuracy.
We’re proud to have the backing of DGB (Draper Goren Blockchain, an early-stage blockchain venture studio and management company), whose belief in human-centered innovation mirrors our mission to ensure AI advances — not replaces — human expertise.”
Aivre was built specifically for appraisers, enhancing their workflow rather than displacing it. Early testing shows appraisers can cut more than three hours from each report and reduce revisions by nearly 30 percent while maintaining the professional oversight that ensures valuations remain accurate and defensible.
Jordan Lesson, CTO of Aivre, led the development team in building a platform that he says accelerates the appraisal process and ensures transparency and trust for everyone involved.
Lew says the entire Aivre team “built a platform that balances AI innovation with regulatory rigor, ensuring appraisers are supported” under the new UAD.
“We are excited to see solutions like Aivre supporting the new UAD residential appraisal report by fostering data-driven innovation,” says Kenneth DeFeo, senior manager of single-family collateral risk at Fannie Mae. “Verification tools like this augment appraisers’ expertise, helping them produce consistent, transparent, and efficient appraisals.”
Daniel Miller, senior director of strategic technology relationships at Freddie Mac, states: “The collaboration with Aivre demonstrates our continued focus on digital tools that improve speed and efficiency while facilitating more reliable risk analysis and helping drive lenders’ data-driven underwriting decisions.
“Aivre’s implementation of the UAD Compliance API within their platform will offer appraisers valuable, early insight into these rules before the appraisal report is completed.”
