In this powerful episode of the Non-Del Influencers Podcast, host Matt Coles sits down with Jeff Walton, CEO and Co-Founder of Ingenius, to explore how data accessibility can transform the way both large and small lenders compete in today’s marketplace.

Jeff pulls back the curtain on how Ingenius provides enterprise-level data solutions to lenders of all sizes—giving small shops access to the same valuable insights used by top five banks in the country. With a transparent, scalable pricing model, Jeff and his team are on a mission to democratize data and give every lender, regardless of size, the tools to make smarter decisions and expand their footprint.

Here are three key insights from Jeff's conversation with Matt Coles:
1️⃣ Enterprise Data for Everyone – Discover how small lenders can tap into national datasets traditionally reserved for the biggest players—without breaking the bank.
2️⃣ No Paywalls, Just Performance – Learn why Ingenius doesn’t gate data by region or tier, and how that empowers nimble, non-delegated lenders to grow across markets.
3️⃣ Smart Scaling Starts with Smart Data – Jeff breaks down how to use data effectively—no matter the size of your team—to fuel expansion and support sustainable growth.
