Prestigious Annual Awards Program Celebrates a Decade of Recognizing the World’s Most Innovative Financial Technology Companies
NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 19, 2026 – Built, the leading AI-native platform for real estate and construction finance, today announced that it has been selected as the winner of the “Compliance Management Solution of the Year” award in the 10th annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by FinTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global FinTech market today.
Built helps capital providers and those building our communities fund and manage projects with total visibility and control. Built’s agentic AI applies lender rules across budgets, inspection data, and documentation, allowing capital to move faster through construction lending workflows while enhancing lender control and compliance.
Built brings compliance management, lien waivers, inspections, payments, and supporting documentation into a single workflow. By cross-referencing budgets, documentation, and inspection data, the platform helps lenders identify risks earlier, mitigate over-funding and fraud, and maintain a clear compliance record across the project lifecycle.
“Construction & CRE lenders rely on hundreds of documents, inspections, and compliance checks to safely fund projects, yet much of that work still happens across fragmented systems, spreadsheets, and manual reviews,” said Steve Johansson, Managing Director, FinTech Breakthrough. “Built brings transparency and control to the compliance workflows that sit at the center of construction lending, helping lenders, owners, and builders keep documentation aligned so capital can move safely through each stage of a project.”
The FinTech Breakthrough Awards is the premier awards program founded to recognize the FinTech innovators, leaders and visionaries from around the world in a wide range of categories, including Digital Banking, Personal Finance, Cryptocurrencies, Lending, Payments, Investments, RegTech, InsurTech and more. The 2026 program represents a milestone year, reflecting a decade of spotlighting the companies driving measurable innovation across the global financial technology ecosystem.
“Real estate assets require hundreds of documents, inspections, and approvals to stay aligned across lenders and their clients,” said Chase Gilbert, co-founder and CEO of Built. “When those processes break down, money gets stuck and risk increases across the portfolio. Built was founded to solve that problem by bringing these workflows into a single platform so teams can manage compliance, reduce risk, and keep capital moving with far greater confidence. We’re grateful to see that work recognized.”
