Hopdox

What Hopdox does

Hopdox is a privately held SaaS company providing electronic recording (eRecording) of real estate and land record documents, operating on a two-sided market model that connects county recording offices with document submitters — title companies, banks, attorneys, contractors, and lien filers — for deeds, mortgages, liens, satisfactions, notices of commencement, and releases. Founded in 2024 by Paul Clifford, the original founder of Simplifile (the dominant legacy eRecording platform that integrated nearly 2,500 counties over 20 years), Hopdox was built from the ground up as a modern cloud-based alternative, with its senior team staffed largely by former Simplifile executives in product, sales, county relations, and finance.

The core technology is a cloud-native eRecording platform with built-in AI that ingests scanned or uploaded documents and automatically identifies and populates required indexing fields before submission, reducing manual data entry and rejection rates. Functional capabilities include secure encrypted document transmission to counties, real-time status tracking from submission through recording, certified copy delivery, document storage and backup, and reporting. The platform exposes dedicated modules for document submitters, county recording offices, and contractors, and is technically integrated with all four major U.S. land records management systems — Tyler Technologies, Fidlar Technologies (AVID), GovOS, and Harris Recording Solutions — which collectively bridge the Hopdox platform to the county back-office systems that hold the recording authority.

Hopdox monetizes exclusively through a per-document transaction fee — customers pay only when a document successfully records, with no annual fees, license fees, support costs, or account minimums. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven: a dedicated enterprise sales team pursues counties and submitters via demos and direct outreach, supported by an aggressive in-person conference strategy (44 industry events across 18 states in 2025) and channel partnerships through the LRMS vendors. As of late 2025, the company reported being live for eRecording in 20 states with hundreds of counties connected and hundreds more in onboarding.
