Valon Technologies

What Valon Technologies does

Valon Technologies is a New York-based fintech that builds ValonOS, an AI-native, cloud-native mortgage servicing platform hosted on Google Cloud Platform. The system consolidates compliance, payments, accounting, and borrower experience into a single vertically integrated stack, serving two customer segments: homeowners (through the Valon Mortgage consumer brand offering purchase, refinance, HELOC, HELOAN, and debt consolidation products) and other mortgage servicers and lenders (via ValonOS licensing for B2B infrastructure). The company claims 3x lower servicing costs than the industry average, processes 12.4 billion background jobs annually, and holds SOC 2 Type 2, Moody's SQ3+, and Ginnie Mae Issuer credentials with licensing in all 50 U.S. states.

The company generates revenue through four streams: recurring mortgage servicing fees on owned/managed portfolios, transaction-based loan origination fees, affiliate commissions from insurance products (homeowners, auto, specialty), and subscription-based technology licensing of ValonOS to enterprise clients including Carrington Mortgage Services and Rithm Capital/Newrez. GTM is hybrid: direct-to-consumer for the Valon Mortgage brand via website, mobile, and phone/chat support, alongside an enterprise field sales motion for ValonOS with dedicated partner pages and demo CTAs.

In May 2026, Valon executed a major strategic pivot: it divested its ~800,000-loan Valon Mortgage servicing portfolio ($197B UPB) to Carrington while Carrington adopted ValonOS as its core platform, and concurrently expanded its Rithm Capital/Newrez partnership (covering 4M+ homeowners) with a long-term minority equity investment. The transaction repositions Valon from a vertically integrated mortgage operator into a pure-play software and infrastructure provider for the broader $13 trillion mortgage servicing industry. The company has raised over $290M from Andreessen Horowitz, WestCap, Starwood Capital, and others, and is led by co-founders Andrew Wang (CEO) and Jon Hsu.
