ATG GO – Built for Real Estate Attorneys

New App Helps You Manage Transactions More Efficiently and Securely

Chris Burhans photo

ATG introduces game-changing technology: ATG GO. Our collaborative order platform will revolutionize the way ATG and its attorney agents do business, share information, and interact with each other. ATG GO gives you, a busy real estate attorney, the ability to place title orders, conduct title exams, manage documents, and schedule clients' real estate closings from any location using your phone, tablet, or computer. There is nothing like this on the market.

We created this app by working closely with key members of ATG's operations team to map-out current processes and workflows, identify pain points, gain efficiencies, and find solutions. Later in the process, we tapped experienced ATG attorney agents and used their feedback to make the product even better. This collaboration resulted in a one-of-a-kind mobile app that will completely change the way you work. And — in addition to mobility and ease of use — one of ATG GO's most important features is security. We replaced passwords, phone calls, and emails with PIN codes, push notifications, and live chats. With fraud and email scams rampant in our industry, security has never been more important. Read more...
