Modex and Polygon Research both support mortgage production analysis, geographic research and MLO recruiting. Modex is particularly strong when the immediate task is finding and contacting loan officers. It combines production and employment histories, licensing and contact data, agent relationships, saved searches and CRM workflows.
Polygon Research supports the same recruiting and sales-expansion work with MLO production, mortgage origination and county-recorder property data. It then connects those opportunities to market size, borrower and community demand, product and credit-box trends, custom peer benchmarks, fair-lending analysis, agency and FHA activity, Non-QM, affordability and environmental risk.
That wider context matters. A productive MLO may still be a poor fit if the person’s products, relationships or markets do not support the lender’s strategy. Polygon Research lets recruiters evaluate the opportunity while strategy, product, compliance, secondary-market and community teams work from the same analytical environment.
Modex is a focused choice for recruiting and relationship activation. Polygon Research is the more comprehensive choice for MLO recruiters and mortgage organizations that need to recruit, expand and make rigorous decisions across teams.
Modex Recruit publishes pricing from $150 per month per seat for one-state access and $250 per month per seat for nationwide access. Modex Profiles uses a separate success-based placement model, so buyers should confirm the applicable subscription, placement and contract terms.
Polygon Research provides nationwide access starting at $199 per month or $166 per month billed annually. Pricing is public, access is browser-based, and customers can choose monthly or annual subscriptions. Monthly access lets teams start without a long-term commitment.
MortgageData.ai also has a forever-free tier. Polygon Research combines recruiting intelligence with mortgage, property, agency, borrower, community and risk data, with an AI assistant across those connected datasets.
