Nominations are now open for the Tech100 program — the housing industry’s most prestigious technology award. Now in its 14th year, Tech100 recognizes the 100 most innovative technology companies in the mortgage and real estate sectors while celebrating the organizations that drive progress, efficiency and digital transformation across the housing economy.

Tech100 honors the technology trailblazers that are redefining how housing professionals work — from startups that change the way homes are bought and sold to enterprise platforms that power mortgage origination, servicing and secondary markets.

Celebrating the industry’s most innovative technology

Each year, the Tech100 Mortgage and Tech100 Real Estate lists highlight groundbreaking solutions that are reshaping how housing professionals serve their clients. The lists reflect innovation happening across every corner of the industry — from loan origination and secondary markets to agent marketing, transaction management and property data analytics.

Last year’s Tech100 Mortgage winners included industry leaders such as ICE Mortgage Technology, Blend Labs, DocMagic, Freddie Mac, Down Payment Resource and Dark Matter Technologies. Each of them were recognized for advancing automation, compliance and borrower experience.

On the Tech100 Real Estate side, companies like Zillow, CoreLogic, Anywhere Real Estate, Bright MLS and Altos Research were honored for transforming how agents, brokers and consumers interact with data and digital tools in the modern housing market.

These standout innovators were joined by a diverse range of companies — from emerging proptech startups like Revive Real Estate and ProxyPics to established players like First American Data & Analytics, Rocket Mortgage, and Opendoor. They demonstrate the depth and breadth of technological advancement happening across the housing landscape.
