Terms were not disclosed. House Numbers co-founder and CEO Jeff Levinsohn joins Dark Matter as chief AI officer, and the team that built the platform comes with him.\n\n## Dark Matter's House Numbers Acquisition\n\nDark Matter Technologies is a home lending technology company whose products include the Empower loan origination solution with its built-in point of sale, Aiva Intelligence, the Elevate loan servicing solution and the Exchange partner marketplace, according to [its website](https://dmatter.com). House Numbers, founded in 2021 by Levinsohn, Benjamin Hoffman and Arthur Granado, operates as a licensed third-party mortgage processor and builds an agentic AI platform that runs AI agents in live production on real loan files, with controls designed for a regulated industry.\n\n[House Numbers](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0002chf/house-numbers) was backed by Resolute Ventures, Maven Ventures and Uncommon Capital, together with more than a dozen angel investors. The platform has been in production for two years and has processed loans for more than 100 lenders. Dark Matter said the acquisition accelerates agentic AI across Empower and its built-in point of sale, helping lenders put autonomous AI agents and AI agent assistants to work to improve borrower experiences, increase loan officer productivity, lower the cost of origination and advance the shift from doing to reviewing.\n\n[HousingWire](https://www.housingwire.com/articles/exclusive-dark-matter-acquires-house-numbers-agentic-ai-platform/) reported that Levinsohn joins as chief AI officer, with two co-founders taking engineering and AI adoption roles. At Dark Matter, Granado becomes vice president of engineering and Hoffman becomes vice president of AI adoption and enablement. Levinsohn will lead Dark Matter's AI strategy and development, working with its product and technology teams to enhance existing agentic solutions and bring agentic AI capabilities into Empower, its built-in point of sale and the broader ecosystem.\n\n\"We started House Numbers because getting a mortgage should be faster and cheaper than it is, and software should do more of the work,\" Levinsohn said. Vikas Rao, CEO of Dark Matter Technologies, said: \"Bringing in that proven technology and the team behind it gets agentic AI into our clients' hands faster than building it from scratch.\"\n\n## Dark Matter's Leadership and Product Moves Before the Deal\n\nDark Matter promoted Don Oliver to CTO, Chris Medvidofsky to CFO and Blaine Prober to general counsel in October 2026, according to [FinancialContent Business Page](https://www.financialcontent.com/article/send2press-2026-10-30-dark-matter-acquires-house-numbers-agentic-ai-platform-for-home-lending-names-jeff-levinsohn-chief-ai-officer). All three have been with the company since its 2023 launch, and the promotions follow recent hires and aim to support the company's AI-forward platform growth.\n\nIn September 2026, Dark Matter appointed Salvatore Piccola as senior vice president of product strategy and Gil Valera as vice president of professional services, FinancialContent Business Page reported. In August 2026, the company released a point-of-sale update integrating Aiva Intelligence to provide real-time document validation at the moment of upload, the same outlet reported.\n\n## Levinsohn's Role at Dark Matter\n\nLevinsohn joins Dark Matter as chief AI officer and will lead its AI strategy and development, the company said. The acquisition supports Dark Matter's three AI platform commitments: AI embedded in every workflow, an AI agent assistant for every user and the shift from doing to reviewing across the loan lifecycle.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
