Trent Middleton

Trent is a software engineer with 15 years in IT who runs several software businesses, and co-founded Lend1 to fix a problem he kept seeing up close. Skilled brokers losing their days to chasing documents and retyping the same details.

He leads the technical architecture and does a lot of the building himself. Running more than one product at a time has made him blunt about what matters: real-time updates that actually update, AI that reads a payslip properly the first time, automations a broker can set up without a developer, and security that stands up to an independent penetration test. He works from South Australia, and brokers who email him get him.
