Problem
Escrow officers manage high volumes of transactions involving:
Multiple parties
Frequent document updates
Tight deadlines
Manual activity tracking
Pain Points
Activity logs are passive and hard to scan
Important updates are buried in long timelines
Users must manually interpret “what happened” and “what to do next”


Ideation


Proposed AI Suggestion Panel
Predefined smart prompts like:
Activity Today
Tasks Assigned to Me
Generate Work Summary
List of Next Steps
Reduces time spent searching through logs
Proposed Solution
EscrowAI introduces a smart assistant panel that:
Summarizes activity in plain language
Suggests next actions
Answers contextual questions
Surfaces relevant updates in real time
Ask EscrowAI
Users can type:
“What changed today?”
“Who was removed from signing?”
Right Panel (Escrow AI)
Persistent assistant
Doesn’t interrupt primary workflow
Mockups
User opens a file
Views AI suggestions (e.g., “Activity Today”)
Clicks a suggestion OR types a question
EscrowAI processes activity data
Returns:
