Key Operating Metrics
We review a number of operating metrics, including transaction volume, $; transaction volume, number of loans; conversion rate; and percentage of loans fully
automated, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.
We define Transaction Volume, Dollars as the total principal of loans transacted on our platform between a borrower and the originating bank during the period
presented. We define Transaction Volume, Number of Loans as the number of loans facilitated on our platform between a borrower and the originating bank during the
period presented. We believe these metrics are good proxies for our overall scale and reach as a platform.
We define Conversion Rate as the number of loans transacted in a period divided by the number of rate inquiries received that we estimate to be legitimate, which we
record when a borrower requests a loan offer on our platform. We track this metric to understand the impact of improvements to the efficiency of our borrower funnel
on our overall growth.
We define Percentage of Loans Fully Automated as the total number of loans in a given period originated end-to-end (from initial rate request to final funding) with no
human involvement divided by Transaction Volume, Number of Loans in the same period.
