Draws that don't wait on a courier
Inspection to disbursement inside one ledger. Retainage, lien waivers and conditional releases tracked per line item, not per email thread.
The clearing platform that replaces legacy escrow — every dollar held by a neutral third party, every file cleared at zero fee, every wire released the same day.
Three sweeps. Each one is a file type escrow companies price as an exception — and PHOCIS clears as the standard.

Every dollar your bank holds at 0% is a dollar PHOCIS could be turning into yield. Drag the slider. The number on the right is your money — at a fixed 1.0% APY, paid monthly.
Fixed rate · paid monthly · not adjustable. Annual APY ÷ 12 months.
↳ Yields are illustrative. Actual revenue depends on PHOCIS configuration, balance tier, and Treasury rates. Earning on float requires a $5.0M minimum balance maintained for 3 consecutive months. Speak with our team for current quotes.
Same custody. Same access. The only change is who keeps the yield.
That's a quarter-million dollars over five years for changing where your money sits. We'd like to help you take it back.
Capture your yield →PHOCIS exists because legacy real estate banking has four structural failures that compound every closing, every draw, every exchange. Solving any one would matter. We solve all four.
$280B lost to slow construction payments in 2024. Lenders earn 0% on held funds. Hundreds of billions in real estate escrow sit dormant across the U.S. at any moment.
PHOCIS pays yield monthly and accelerates disbursement to same-day.
2026 wire fraud no longer attacks the IOLTA — it attacks the wire instructions mid-thread between the lawyer and the lender's operating account. Funds in non-custodied accounts are the soft target.
PHOCIS funds live in Wells Fargo custody. Wire instructions never exposed to email interception.
California CTAPP Rule 2.5 tightened IOLTA reconciliation but left held-funds untouched. 1031 QIs remain federally unregulated. State rules drift apart.
Our 50-State Compliance Engine™ refreshes daily. One platform. One source of truth.
E&O and crime carriers increasingly exclude losses where funds sat in non-custodied operating accounts. Coverage now requires regulated custody — Wells Fargo, BNY, or equivalent.
PHOCIS gives you Wells Fargo custody by default — and adds $250K of audit coverage per lender on top.

Escrow was built when a file moved by courier and a wire took a week. The money still moves that way, and every day of drift costs the lender who funded it. PHOCIS was founded by financial engineers, compliance experts and escrow-industry veterans — led by a United States Marine who knows that discipline, speed and integrity aren't values you list on a website. They're the only way forward.
