Sometimes, the most meaningful innovation comes from a decisive partnership.
Qualia and Old Republic National Title Holding Company (Old Republic Title) have reached that moment—and that has significance for the entire title & escrow industry.
Old Republic Title, a 118-year-old institution and one of the industry’s largest and most venerated underwriters, has launched the first phase of moving its direct operations onto Qualia’s cloud-based, AI-powered platform. The rollout marks a significant modernization milestone for Old Republic and reinforces Qualia’s role as the leading unified and intelligent operating system built for the future of title & escrow.
On February 9, 2026, Old Republic Title’s Oregon operations became the first state to go live on Qualia, kicking off a state-by-state rollout across the western U.S.
“Old Republic’s decision to move its direct operations onto Qualia is both a milestone and a signal,” says Nate Baker, CEO and Co-Founder of Qualia. “It shows what’s possible when a category-defining institution pairs its history and leadership with a modern operating platform built for scale. This is about setting a foundation—not just for today, but for how title & escrow operates for decades to come.”
‘The next era of title services’
The partnership between Old Republic Title and Qualia reflects a deliberate move by Old Republic Title to couple the company’s deep underwriting expertise with an enterprise-grade, scalable technology platform. It also lays the groundwork for Old Republic to leverage Qualia’s industry-first agentic AI capabilities made specifically for title & escrow.
The collaboration accelerates the underwriter’s digital transformation, positioning the company to deliver more seamless, efficient experiences for agents and customers in a rapidly changing market.
“We are energized by the opportunity this opens for us,” says Ivy Anderson, President of Old Republic Title’s Western Title Division. “Qualia brings the industry’s leading smart technology together with a partnership mindset that aligns with our commitment to innovation, service excellence, and delivering exceptional customer experiences. Together, we’re helping usher in the next era of title services. It’s one that blends our trusted legacy with Qualia’s platform to deliver transformational value for our agents and clients.”
An enterprise partnership that powers modernization
All Old Republic Title branches in Oregon are now operating on Qualia. The go-live in Oregon is the first milestone in a broader modernization effort. In the months ahead, all of Old Republic Title’s branches in western states that include Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, and Washington will be running on Qualia.
For Old Republic Title, this marks a strategic shift toward a tech-first operating model. Legacy systems are being retired in favor of a single enterprise title production system: Qualia Atlas. By partnering with Qualia, Old Republic Title can focus on its core strengths as a title insurer while using best-in-class technology to deliver better experiences through advantages that include:
- Streamlined operations
- Reduced complexity
- The opportunity to use next-generation AI made specifically for title & escrow
- The clarity and confidence that comes with operating on a single enterprise platform
“This transition to Qualia helps ensure that our company—with more than a century of history—is equipped to lead for the next century,” says Anderson.
For Qualia, the work with Old Republic Title reflects the trust earned through strong partnership, proven intelligent technology, and hands-on consulting support provided by a professional services team that’s built a roadmap for tailoring enterprise-level workflows, controls, scale requirements, and training.
“It’s exceptionally rare for a Big Four underwriter to adopt an external, end-to-end operating system rather than build internally,” says Alex Brown, Senior Director of Professional Services leading the Old Republic Title initiative for Qualia. “Even with great technology, projects like this only work when there are strong relationships in place to build trust and enable real collaboration. We’ve been fortunate to build that with the Old Republic team.”
Sustained momentum at enterprise scale
Old Republic Title and Qualia have a longstanding relationship, having closed millions of transactions together over the years. Just over a year ago, Qualia and Old Republic announced a strategic partnership, which included Qualia’s acquisition of Old Republic Title’s RamQuest and E-Closing platforms.
The Oregon activation represents a meaningful deepening of the relationship— a watershed moment when collaboration elevates to a shared enterprise operating model.
What began as a vision for modernization is now unfolding as a disciplined, enterprise-scale rollout with real momentum—one that brings together a century of underwriting leadership with a platform designed for the needs of today and tomorrow. The forthcoming rollout across additional states will demonstrate Qualia’s ability to handle the complexity of large, multi-state organizations—and Old Republic’s commitment to providing the most efficient, consistent, and intelligent experience for its agents and customers nationwide.
“This work is about enabling real, durable change inside one of the most respected institutions in title,” says Baker. “Old Republic Title is proving that long-standing leadership and modern technology can be complementary. By operating on Qualia, Old Republic Title is positioning itself to scale intelligently, adopt AI with purpose, and deliver stronger outcomes for agents, customers, and the industry as it evolves.”
