Settle, with less rework

We're piloting a secure platform that securely receives and validates loan documents (including bank instructions), offers e-signing capability for you and your clients, and enables the secure return of documents to the bank.

No more re-keying, no more chasing clients for a signature. It's the first phase of a bigger shift toward digital settlement in New Zealand. We're building it with banks already on board, and we want progressive New Zealand law firms shaping it with us.

The problem, today

You know this process too well

Right now, loan documents land as PDF attachments via email, in a different format for every bank. Time is wasted manually reviewing and summarising the details for your client. Documents get printed, posted, or chased down for a wet signature. Signed copies get scanned and emailed back, and an error can mean restarting the whole process.

What changes with PEXA

A platform that does the busywork, so you don't have to

Save up to 1-2 hours per matter

Automatic review, data extraction in a standard format, and pre-drafted emails do the time-consuming for you.

Catch errors before they cost you

Issues get flagged early, so there's less back and forth with the bank, reducing settlement delays.

One format, every bank

We review and report any errors and inconsistencies in loan documents, with a consistent summary for your client, regardless of the bank.

You're still the one in charge

We make the work easier, but every action needs your review and approval. Nothing moves without your say.

E-signing that's ready to go

We automatically tag every place your client needs to sign, so there's no manual placement like other e-signing tools. Wet signing is still there if that's what you or your client prefer.

This is Phase 1 of a longer roadmap: standardised discharge advice and a fully digital settlement day are next. What we learn from your firm in this pilot shapes how that gets built.

Why this pilot is worth your time

Tested with the profession before we built a single screen

During discovery, we sat down with more than 150 New Zealand lawyers to pressure-test the model. That groundwork is done. What we need now is a smaller group of committed firms to put it into practice in real matters.
