AI Lead Scoring

New software is a risk. Your pipeline shouldn’t be.

Switching CRMs is a big decision. Your leads, your data, and your team’s day all run through it. The platform you pick should be proven, actively improved, and backed by people who answer when you call.

Built and proven over 17 years

Shape has run mortgage teams since 2009, through every rate cycle and compliance change. Relcu launched in 2020 and has not been tested across a full market cycle. A young platform is still learning what lenders need.

A product that keeps improving

Shape ships more than 1,000 updates and product enhancements a year, so the platform you buy keeps getting better. A newer product is still building toward features a mature system already ships.

Support that shows up

Shape is known for award-winning support, staffed by people who have worked inside mortgage operations. When something breaks mid-pipeline, you want a team that has answered the question before.

White-glove onboarding

Your CRM called. It wants a promotion.

We’ll migrate everything and get your team live, with hands-on onboarding built around how you actually work.

The bottom line

Breaking down Shape vs Relcu

Relcu is a new platform with a short track record. Shape is a proven mortgage platform: 17 years in the market, more than 1,000 product updates a year, and award-winning support. You also get point of sale, a borrower portal, landing pages, and social publishing that Relcu does not show today.

Why teams choose Shape

The mortgage platform lenders pick when they want proof, not promises.
  • Proven over 17 years

    Shape has served lenders since 2009 and been tested through every market since, with 2,000+ verified reviews behind it.

  • A full marketing suite

    Landing pages, a design studio, and social publishing alongside campaigns, not campaigns alone.

  • The complete loan

    Point of sale, a borrower portal, and document collection, so the borrower applies with you, not in another system.

  • Lead to funded loan

    Lead routing, campaigns, pricing, pipelines, point of sale, and a borrower portal in one system.

Where Relcu falls short

It has solid core features. But buyers run into gaps:
  • Short track record

    Founded in 2020 with a small customer base, not yet tested across a full market cycle.

  • No point of sale

    No borrower application, portal, or doc collection shown.

  • Campaigns only

    Marketing is campaign automation. No landing page builder, design studio, or social publishing shown.

  • Still maturing

    A newer platform, still building toward features a proven system already ships.
