A New Chapter for CloseSimple
Today, we’re announcing that CloseSimple has been acquired by CertifID.
Ten years ago, we came into the title industry as outsiders. What kept us here was the people.
Title professionals show up every day for one of the most consequential transactions in their clients’ lives. They manage complexity, emotion, risk, communication, deadlines, and trust, often all at once. Building for this community has been one of the great privileges of our careers, and everything we’ve done since has been in service of that work.
Over the last few months, we’ve been thinking deeply about what it will take to keep growing CloseSimple the right way. Not just growing the business, but continuing to build the kind of product our customers deserve. We’ve built something genuinely strong: hundreds of title companies running their closings on our platform, millions of transactions automated, and a customer base that has grown with us year after year.
At the same time, the market is moving quickly. Fraud is becoming more sophisticated. Customer expectations are rising. The need for secure, connected, workflow-driven closings has never been clearer. We knew the next chapter needed to help us move faster, go deeper, and bring even more value to the title companies we serve.
That’s when we got a call from CertifID.
When we sat down with Tyler Adams and his team, things clicked immediately. We had been solving the same problem from different angles: CertifID from the fraud and trust side, and CloseSimple from the workflow and customer experience side. The fit was obvious. And honestly, more than a few people had already asked us, “Why don’t you two just work together?”
Now we will.
This brings together two teams with a shared obsession: helping title companies deliver closings that are safer, simpler, and seamless. CertifID’s industry-leading fraud prevention and CloseSimple’s workflow-driven customer experience are a powerful combination, and we could not be more excited about what that means for the people we both serve.
To our customers: you have been incredible partners, and we don’t take that lightly. You trusted us early, pushed us to build better, and are the reason CloseSimple is what it is today. Nothing about your experience is changing right now. Your team, your workflows, your contracts, and the service your clients receive remain the same. We’ll share more as our plans take shape, and our commitment to you is as strong as it has ever been.
To every member of the CloseSimple team, past and present: you built this. Your belief in what we were creating, and your willingness to do the hard work of getting here, made this moment possible. We are deeply grateful.
The best is still ahead. We’re glad you’re with us for it.
